Title: wild coho galore!! October 13th
Post by: *Lil Fisherman* on October 13, 2005, 05:07:44 PM

DARN!! its wild. I hate having to say that. Well I must of heard that phrase 7 times from 4 people today at brownsville bar.I managed to hook into a small hatchery coho as did a couple other people. It doesn't look like people think there are many coho in the river right now,but infact,there are quite a few. However,most of them are wild. I'm not sure if some of you guys just don't bother reporting even wild ones. Anyways, as far as I can tell, it looks like their definitely coming!!! :) :)

IMHO, having to say it's wild is a good thing.  It points to indications of healthy returning stocks.  If you're catching more wild than hatchery, then we know conservation works.

Brownsville is in the tidal portion of the Fraser in Surrey. Method most likely used, bar fishing with roe. :)

Sounds good!!!!  I alrready had a barfishing day planned for saturday!!!!!  I am getting a little sick of the gong show on the Vedder, so I thought that I would take a weekend off.  But I'm still going bar fishing, so I guess that it is not really a weekend off at all!!!!!! ;D ;D
