Pinks are Feisty on the Squamish!

8/11/2015

The Squamish Pink Salmon run has begun in earnest.  The fish have now begun their rush into the system and the main stem of the Squamish and the tributaries are starting to fill with chrome and feisty fish.  Today was a fabulous day on the river, weather wise and fishing wise with most people getting their two fish limit quite easily.  Today was Dave's first day fly fishing and he rose to the challenge.

The fish were extremely fresh in the mainstem and at the mouth of the Mamquam and frequently put up spirited battles.  They readily took the chartreuse pink or lime green flies, purple jigs or drifted spoons and would tear off line and do cart wheels worthy of a coho.  With the right presentation drifted just above the rocks the action was pretty much continuous throughout the day.  Check out Dave's Epic Battle by clicking on this link.  

By the mid afternoon, our wrists were sore and the knuckles slighty bashed up by all the burning runs the fish made and reluctantly we had to leave with our limit of two chrome fish each but Dave has a real good fish story to tell and the pictures and barbecue material to prove it!

The beaches in Howe Sound were also very busy with people working the rising tide.  The mouth of the Capilano also did well for coho first light this morning for those who were able to get up and get a spot.  So while the Fraser is still fishing slow and the Vedder is low and the fish are reluctant, there are several other spots to head and have a great day fishing!...  Tight lines.
