Coho is already in the Vedder now. Chehalis will be a little bit later. Norris Creek trails after Chehalis. But in all, October will see more coho and mid October on will be chum paradise, and chum will be everywhere, including the Stave. But Squamish system has the freshest chum. Good luck.

we encountered excellent and typical numbers of big chunky well fed coho in the southern waters of Nootka on the WCVI. I am not sure if all the late summer coho are just nootka area fish or not but there did not seem to be any runty fish in the lot.... and LOTs of bait around even with the mackeral hordes being present... here's to hoping we get enough to entertain the masses locally in the LM area

        I went out on a scouting mission yesterday and walked from the confluence of Cheakamus at the Squamish up to the two lane bridge looking for some good holes. It is amazing how much a river changes from year to year. Also walked around the mouth of the Mamquam. Actually saw a couple real moldy chum that must have entered the river a little to early on the Cheakamus. Saw some rolling chum around the mouth of the Mamquam, not many around just yet.. There are some in there, just itching for some chum and coho on the fly. Hopefully get some hoes on the fly on the stamp tomorrow.
