First Pink of the year caught in the fraser river cottonwood gilnet test fishery yesterday!

Fished Friday Furry Creek still slow with few fish taken among lots of fishermen. Checked out Squamish late afternoon, lots of people and fishing still slow nothing like prior years. Tossed flies for an hour or so and saw only one fish along the entire stretch. The seals were working the runs too for the few fish in the river. The ocean may be so few fish that they have to go up river like some of us. Lol.

Fished Squamish this aft .... my wife caught one on her first cast. 

 Pink wooly bugger worked for me!


Needless to say we got our limit of 1 fish each.
 . Fish were bright silver ... with sea lice.

Few small schools pushing through.

Just Curious, are people ignoring the new no parking signs along HWY 99 at Furry Creek?  It happened at the Stave River on the West side too and people parked there anyways.

Thanks for the great report glad to see you and your wife got your limit each fast!. Don't ever feel like you shouldn't give reports after all that's why most are here. Everyone seems to have an insatiable appetite for information from here but then don't share!

Thanks again!

Planning on checking out the Squamish River next week for the first time. I've got an 8' spinning rod with 15lb line and a 10' center pin rod with 20lb line. What's best to bring? Should I be floating jigs/wool/spoons or casting and retrieving lures? Thanks!

Twitching jigs and swinging spoons for your spinning rod and swinging blades under a float.

All of the above work. Try them all.

The fish I caught were in just a few feet of water, if yer castin' lures keep 'em light.

Or... just bring both..

Guy fishin' beside me did ok on a Centerpin

8-10lb leader should be more than enough..

If you don't fly fish, swinging small spoons like 3/16 oz or 1/8 oz Crocs in pink or fire orange work well. If you prefer float fishing, drift a small silver/red Dick Nite spoon along the seam where bottom drops off. However, fly fishing is the most effective and fun method to catch pinks on the Squamish.
