OUTLOOK
Holy cow it’s cold! We are having one of the coldest winters on record and it doesn’t look to be changing soon. We are all looking very closely at the 14-day forecasts and there is hope in sight.
Out of the next seven days the best fishing days look to be this weekend. It will be cold with possible snow but it won’t be too cold. Steelhead will bite in cold weather, especially if they are fresh, so heading to the Vedder this weekend is not a bad idea.
Cold days have very little effect on winter chinook fishing as long as the wind doesn’t pose a problem. There has been some wind so keep your eye on the marine forecast. We have had good reports from the harbour, up Howe Sound and even across the straight.
The Squamish will be a challenge any time we have such cold temperatures. That said there is hope in the long term forecast and you can read about Matt’s predictions for when to get out in this week’s Squamish report.
With the cold weather we thought it was the perfect time to feature the new Simms Challenger jacket. This jacket is perfect to combo up with waders or look at the bib pant and jacket combo for a high quality, cost effective option for fishing from the boat. The Hex Camo is a very cool color and at $269.99 for the jacket and $269.99 for the bib you get all the bells and whistles, like a sunglass cleaner and smooth lining that Simms is known for at a very competitive price. To make things even better we are offering them both at 10% off this week only at the shop! Check out Jordan’s review below and come down to the shop if you are looking for a piece like this.
