Hey,

I'm Rob from Surrey here. Been angling since I was a kid; started with bait fishing for rainbows and have moved on to fly fishing for 'em lately (though I still toss in the 'ol worm n slip-float on occassion). Spring fishing the Fraser is my new addiction; got my first one last week while bouncing for sox and am hooked! What a rush it is battling a hard-fighting 20 lb fish while up to your waist in a semi-fast flowing river!

When I'm not fishing I enjoy learning more about the sport, as well as: bodybuilding, playing guitar, and playing racquet sports (esp. badminton and tennis). My favorite beer is Guiness Extra Stout, though I'm really into Magner's Irish Cider these days as well.

Tight lines!

Hey folks... been living in Vancouver for 5 years and decided to get back into fishing this summer. Haven't really done much since I was a teenager.

I tried my hand at the pinks this year on North Arm near Foreshore park and came back skunked every time.... musta been doing something wrong  Instead - went out onto the Vedder on the Sept long-weekend and caught (& released) some rainbow trout instead 

Looking forward to learning more about what's in these rivers and lakes around me and hopefully teaching my son how to fish here too one day.

Cheers!
Dan
