Are the pinks in Vedder Canal in number yet? With the lower tidal Fraser slowing down fishing due to commercial opening, perhaps it is better to try the Vedder, especially with fly fishing.

Around Maple Ridge was real good this morning. Lots of fish around for my buddies

Is north arm across from the YVR airport?

North of the airport, yes. South of the airport is the middle arm.

[Colersmom]

Do we know if they have reached up to the stave river yet?

Seems the commercial fishing in tidal fraser coincident with lack of success start Sep 2nd. Unless fish only push in in good number on Sep 1st.

Saw hundreds fishing rising on Sep 1st. 2 rising today.

I noticed the same, Friday morning was killer, Saturday Morning was alright for an hour, Today was dead as in zero for anybody didn't even see a jump..

what commercial fishery? There have been no full on commercial Gill Net openings in the Fraser yet.  Are you mistaking the First Nations FSC chinook fishery for Commercial? maybe I missed the announcement for a commercial opening for Pink salmon but it's very unusual for the commercial gill netters to fish the Fraser on any weekend days.

Pretty quiet on the south arm in Delta  during the mid to late morning. Some jumpers, not many, and only one fish landed among the several guys where I was.

I was my first time fishing the tidal Fraser in several years. I forgot how interesting the tides are, and the inertia of that top layer of freshwater. The tide was ebbing as evidenced by the rocks that every so slowly emerged from the water, yet the top layer of freshwater was still moving upstream. Very cool.



Used this trusty spoon for most of the morning. Anybody recognize it? Better yet, anybody still have one? I still have two remaining!

[Fish Assassin]

Looks like the Rodney spoon. Still have several dozens.

[clarki]

Winner winner, chicken dinner!

You still have several dozens!? Jealous!

I bought a batch of these spoons from Rod in 2007. Funny that I still have a a couple remaining 16 years later.

Had a good first light hour today, was casting 200ft with one ounce buzzbomb at the beginning, snagged 15ft from shore on a log and realized that there’s some structure, switched to 1/4 ounce Tasmanian devil, casting 50ft out, very slow retrieve, got 6 hookups but only landed 3…all bucks, kept a bigger one for buddy to take home for the kids…no action after 7:30

[RalphH]

drove up the number  1 between Chilliwack and Hope. Saw a total of 1 angler on the various bb bars visible from the highway. Didn't fish myself but hopefully this coming week and next.

[danielk]

Fished new west for the last hour.   Tonight. Seen a few jumpers. And most of the guys leaving when I showed up had one or two.

Pulled up to no.3 road pier this morning; there was a ton of people lined up along the rocks but very few fish were caught. After fishing, I went to berry's to buy some lures and they said that the bite should get better after high tide as the pinks would be closer to the shore. 
Might try out no.3 again or the fraser river dog park tomorrow

 Noticed fewer fish last couple of days compared to first 2 days.

[1st lite]

I heard Brownsville under Patullo Bridge has been fishing really well. Lots of biters!
