You can report to the FV Illegal Dumping Alliance

Also, report it to the RAPP line, it'll get cleaned up properly. There's been a lot of issues with people dumping asbestos recently in the Chilliwack River Valley

Rivers super clear.. Landed a nice bull today, thought it was steel at first, as it hammered my roe hard and then held like a stone in some fast water for a few seconds. Then (as they do) it came in pretty much on its side  ;D heard of a few caught. Lots of people out. ALL very respectful. Love steelhead season

Was out Saturday for a while. Water was very clear mid-section where I was fishing, but at the level I like. Beautiful colour in the lower section. And like you, Jk, I met lots of very amicable folk. Landed and released a pretty 13 lb. wild doe. Me very happy.

Mark Madryga is telling me to expect 25-30 cm in the next 24 hrs. Could make navigating the river difficult for the weekend unless it gets washed away Friday
