OUTLOOK
From cold weather and heavy snow to warm weather and heavy rain the weather continues to be interesting.
The rivers fished well this last week with the shift in weather. They hit perfect levels and had nice colour. We saw good numbers of bulltrout on the Squamish and Steelhead reports were encouraging on the Vedder.
The conditions are probably changing this weekend. With continued rain we are expecting dirtier water on most major rivers around the lower mainland. In this week’s report we look at the Squamish and the Vedder and look at water levels you should be following.
In the Video Version of the report Matt has an interesting update From the Vedder/Chilliwack hatchery on Steelhead numbers as well as possible changes for both production at the hatchery and regulations for fishing on the river.
If you guys are headed out on a warm water bonefish trip this season don’t miss Zach’s video on his rendition of the Famous Crazy Charlie Bonefish fly using a very cool material for tying the wing of the pattern.
Check out both of these videos - linked in our blog version of the report (link below)
As always we have an update on the saltwater fishing scene at the end of the report but a side note is to check your boats if they are moored on the water. With the crazy snow and now heavy rain this is a time of year we start to see bilge and electrical problems. So, do yourself a favour and check on your boat, fire it up and make sure everything is working!
On to the fishing report!
