The commercial openings on the tidal portion of the Fraser starting tomorrow will mop up what’s left of the coho and chum runs.

I did not go out until the sun hit the water today, fished for 45 minutes. 6 misses, 1 fresh run doe landed and one lost on a trout bead.

The Fraser really came up and very muddy, good for the opening. :-X

Fresh run chum continue to enter the system, lot of action while I fished for an hour, a couple of hours after sunrise very few anglers out in the Lower. Looks like the CO is nearly done.

With the heavy rain coming will not help either.

The rain just started in the Valley, may be the last day for a while for those of that short float. ::)

Yes. Takes a couple days after the commie fleet cleans out the river for new fish to arrive into our local rivers. Let’s hope there are no more openings after Nov 6th.

the openings remaining are Nov 4th and 6th from 6am to 7pm each day.  When I drove over the Port Mann yesterday morning there quite a number of boats out and not so many by 330pm. Each boat has a quote of 345 fish so number of boats fishing tomorrow and Friday will depend if most boats fill their quota early or not.
