Its Chinook and Chum Time

The season of the sockeye is starting to wind down and in river fisheries were slow during the mid week and may continue slow till Sunday evening as there have been commercial fisheries every day including tomorrow Saturday, Sept. 13.  This means the river may start to recover by Sunday afternoon and by Monday noon some of the remnant run should starting to show up at Chilliwack.  The run is winding down, but there could still be another peak early next week, though it is unlikely to be as strong as the past few weeks.  
Picture
The white springs are starting to show up in full force, especially at the mouth of the Capilano River.  There is a fleet of boats tucked in front of it every morning and evening as the reports of large whites arriving enmasse has drawn the fisherman.  

The spring and chum numbers in the Fraser Test catches have been strong so bottom bouncers will increasingly encounter them and this is the good time of year for bar rig fisherman as the bottom bouncers begin to fade from the Fraser.  Springs will take spin-n-glo lures and even plugs and spoons in the Fraser River.  You will start to see boats clustered around the mouth of the Vedder River as that run starts to pick up and will hit its zenith the first two weeks of October.

Enjoy the weekend sunshine as we will be out testing for sturgeon as they begin to cluster in areas where salmon carcasses accumulate.  So sockeye salmon bellies, gills and roe will be a must have bait as well as backup of dew worms and eel/lamprey.

Tight lines.
