Post by: coldfinger on August 06, 2012, 01:12:02 PM

Quick question
Has any of the bars between the vedder and grassey starting to show yet?
Shivers! Game tied up!

Peg and seabird still pretty high. Seabird you can wade across but its waist high and sketchy at best. There were these two ...elderly guys... coming out as I was checking it out. said it was doable. I hope that I'm not being wishful when I say another week and things should really start showing

I wouldn't even bother attempting right now, especially Peg Leg.

Are you guys talking about bars accessible by foot?  I have a boat and want to go camp this week.  Looking at the river levels from last year, it seems about the same as last year.  The water looks even lower on the Hydrographic chart.  I'm not super confident on navigating the upper reaches of the lower fraser yet, as I have only been out in it 6 times or so.  I'm hoping from Gill Rd. to be able to find a nice little beach to anchor the boat and do some bar fishing.  Not to mention sturgeon.

Head downstream on ur boat from Gill and there is lots of room to plunk a bar rod and camp .

Thanks.  That's the plan. Tomorrow we go on a recon mission.
