Sea-Run’s Fishing Report & Courses Update - December 3rd, 2015

It is safe to say that our Fall Salmon fishery is definitely coming to an end. Within reason, there are still fish out there to be had, but it is that time of year to make that transition over to Winter Trout and Winter Steelhead fisheries.

To start off with Winter Trout & Char fisheries, one of your best methods is to fish egg imitations suspended under a float or indicator. Fly anglers or conventional anglers can effectively fish egg imitations in this fishery. One of your best imitations hands down is a plastic bead. There are many different bead imitations on the market such as Troutbeads, Mottlebeads, and Spirit River UV2 beads. These beads will often fish better than heavier beads or glass beads as they have a very neutral and natural buoyancy. All sizes between 6mm, 8mm, and 10mm are very good choices in a variety of colours.

Our current selection of beads!

With it already being the beginning of December, that means that there are a few new arrivals of Winter Steelhead making an appearance. This is just the start of it all, but there have already been a few confirmed fish caught which is hopefully a sign for good things to come! We will see better numbers of fish as the month progresses, but most systems begin to see better numbers towards the end of December.
