Well.. today started off with the vedder... went up to the tahimi bridge to see a light brown colour... probbaly fishable but not by my standards (almost no visibility) :( water was really high at the lower river and almost chocolate brown!! so I said screw this! went to check out the chehalis river!! got to the hatchery and saw a lot of coho coming in! wow surprised.. most are boots... maybe some keepers in there just gotta look! didn't even take my rod out, pouring rain at harrison and crappy water at chilliwack.. what a rip off :P next time.. ( I hope there will be a next time for me ) by the way, unless the rain stops the river will be in no condition for a derby by sunday :S sorry to say...
-
How was the visibuility on the chehalis?
-
it was good!! not perfect but good! bout 12 guys fishin near the hatchery and about 8 guys fishing the canyon
-
Thanks ;D
-
Yea i really wanted to fish it, but im not a big fan of standing in the rain :(
-
Thats what jackets are for.
-
yeah rain. fish till your wet. I just got a 100%waterproof jacket with alot of pockets in it for christmas. looking forward to trying it out :)
-
test her out in the shower :D
-
Well if you life in the Fraser Valley ther is an old expression that you gotta go by" If it can't be done in the rain it can't be done!"
-
I got a Reddington beathable wading jacket for xmas and was out on the river today with it. It was perfect. Rain didnt bother me one bit.
-
thx for the report
-

Yeah, that would have been a smart thing to bring, huh.. of course I had a jacket but I do not like to stand in the rain. It is just not pleasant I'd reather sit at home! I wasn't expecting a lot of rain at harrison, but it was really raining hard. I would not mind a light breeze but I hate heavy rain
-
RAIN SUCKS especially during steelheading. It gets cold enough during winter without all the rain to chill you to the bone.

WIMP!!! You're not a real Steeheader!! ;D ;D ;D
-
Hey I am not saying that I do not go out in the rain. The rain will never stop me from going out unless THE RIVER GETS BLOWN OUT :'( :'( :'(
-
You have someone who will bring you all that way to go fishing and when you say you don't want to fish because its drizzling they will take you home :o.
lol. I would maybe fish a little in the rain, its mainly my dad who doesn't like it, and he's the driver! Everybody has their own thing!!
-
Unless your a witch rain wont hurt you ;D. just layer up and wear a jacket should be fine for a while plus its warm out record highs. We had 18 above here the other day.
-
but then you have to wear a hood over your head :( and I hate those!! and if you dont wear it your head gets all wet which is even worse!! and then your hands get all wet and they start to freeze and you cant get a fish and you slip and fall... :D It's just me! a little rain doesn't hurt me, but when it starts pouring and goes in your face I cant stand it!!
-
I wish more would be like you Youngin so that it is less crowded on the rivers :) I could fish all day in the rain wouldnt bother me a bit.
-
you canadians! :P
-
Hi Youngin. What time were you at the Chehalis today? I'm thinking of going tomorrow, and I'm interested in the water conditions and the time of day you were there.
Thanks.
GO CANUCKS!!
-
Wear a waterproff hat if you dont like a hood and neoprene gloves to keep your hands warm/dry. I dunno why but i like fishing inthe rain more than the sun. Fish dont spook quite as much and not as many people.
-
That's what raincoats are for.
-
lol
-
again.. YOU CANADIANS!! :P :P too hardcore for me :(
-
personally i would rather wear a hood and stand on the river all day than sit home with TV remote in my hand and some times i even like to wear my hood around the house,it helps to filter out my wifes bitching and complaining,lol
-
You sure got that one right searun
-
Searun I bet your wife never say you type that she would probably kick you arse. LOL. :D
-
ha but if you know searun his wife has him wiped into shaped. lmao ;D ;D ;D there is always a honeydo list
-
Ya she would probably kick me in the noids,but i guess when you have a pregnant wife to deal with i have to find cover any way i can.lol
-
So I guess that the present that gt got you was a bit late then Eh?? ;D ;D
