Chilliwack/Vedder is OPEN for Hatchery Trout and Chinook Salmon. Baits for Trout, try small flies, spinners & worms. For Chinook use roe shrimp, wool & spoons. Look for heavy cover & deepest runs.
Chehalis River is producing Chinook & Summer Run Steel Head. Angle early morning & dusk, best baits are roe, prawns, jigs & spinners.
Fraser River CLOSED until further notice due to above normal water temperatures. DFO has informed me that water is 19ºC now, if the mean temperature goes to 22ºC there will be no openings this year.
For Aboriginals & Commercial or Sport the DFO & Conservation have been actively seizing nets, gear & boats from poachers in Yale & Lytton. Please report all poachers & polluters!
Sturgeon Angling still really good.
Interior & Local Lakes have slowed considerably. Thing small baits at first & last light due to hot conditions.
Single Barbless App/Ies (sp.) everywhere other than designated lakes.
