Well done !

[Jk47]

Fished a few spots from mid to lower river today. Lots of people out, didnt see or hear of anything hooked. Low . Nice colour but very low. Tough fishin'

[Wiseguy]

Same here yesterday. Fished mid and down low. Nobody we talked to had seen anything. Need some rain to bump the river up imo.

[Bingbamboom]

Anyone been out lately. I have some unexpected free time and thought I would hit the flow. Haven’t heard much, and wondering how the conditions are .

[Wiseguy]

Very low, the river looks like a creek now and really slow. Hit up a local lake instead would be my suggestion. Check Go Fish B.C for a list of recent stockings.

Any reports on river conditions with this rain? Chris? Anyone?

[mikeyman]

I am heading out tomorrow. Can report then.

[mikeyman]

Water low but colour up nice. Got 2 wilds. Sounds like more rain so anyone guess what it looks like now.

[blueback]

Thanks Mikeyman. Sounds like a good day! I may head out myself as the strait is rather inhospitable to fishing this week. I was going to be in Mexico this week before CoVID 19. BTW; stay back from others at least 2 meters and be aware of what you touch.

[mikeyman]

I was worried about handle the fish. Poor fish might get corona. Lol.

[mikeyman]

I didn't kiss them before release anyways.

water temp is 45.2
some turbitity to the water,
level back up to 1.6 meters
mostly wild fish, say 75-90%
some still using shrimp or roe, claiming no deeply hooked fish...

[mikeyman]

I was using bugs. So what. I rig them put hook thru top tail and the rest dangles down. Fish all get hooked in lip. If not quick on set u miss anyways. Bait or no bait a fish could get hooked deep.

Last day of steelheading for this season tomorrow...how is the river? Thinking of going for a walk along the river and taking a few casts...good Covid-19 therapy...

Not sure what your getting at here? I’ve easily hooked over 1000 steelhead on bait in the last 15 years and I think I’ve had to cut the leader on a bleeding fish 2 or 3 times. The highest deep hook ratio of any technique I have ever seen on steelhead has been dry flies. The fish rarely have time to swallow your hook when float fishing in moving water.
