Wait.


There's another river?!?!?!  :o

I lied I thought the Chilliwack river and the Vedder river were 2 different rivers.
Upon further research I've come to the conclusion that they may infact be the same river.

Not looking good for tomorrow, river was chalk by noon below the slide today, and it was raining really heavy when I was driving home this evening.

Oh wow you had me going for a bit there. Thought I might have been missing something all these years. Thanks for the clarification.

It's shaded so not easy to see. Turn up the brightness of your screen and it'll show up.

The members of this site are un believable... Every fish is scrutinized more than my actions by my wife.

Nice fish by your dad, thanks for posting.

Who cares if its wild or hatch its not like its eyes are rolled up and its dead. Main point is people seem to be catching some nice fish on the vedder now if only my mechanic would hurry up with my car i might be one of them. . . i doubt it haha but i can try.

Yep totally agree. Everyone talks the talk here but very few can walk the walk
