No, before there, you park on the side of the highway, before the weigh scales, there will be a lot of no parking signs there.  You have to drive towards Vancouver away from the Weigh Station until there are no more signs!! Walk about 3 km's back up towards the Weigh Scale Station beside the railrod tracks, down a hill, through a bunch of water, back out onto the gravel and you are there!!  The walk in isn't that bad, but the walk out, certainly if you have a big Spring, is a killer!!! ;)

I wasn't going to give you the info, considering from that bar, there will be way to many BBer's to Barfish. But, just keep inside all the laws!!  You know what they are.  Don't forget to pinch your barbs aswell, as there will be more DFO out on the water this weekend. ;)

the channel before the bar is gone 3 weeks ago at about 7 meters water level, but you do need waders to fish if you want to be where the crowd (and the fish  ;) ) is. There is also another bar stretching for 1 km below the pipeline on hwy 7. You can barfish at the top or bb in the lower part (if you know how to fight snags), but where the huge springs could be lurking (I gone mine (pictured on the left) 47 - 50 lb 3 years ago today there - BS could confirm as he was next to me)

Yeah, I can confirm!!  I moved out to for a couple of casts to re tie my gear, this guy comes up and asks if he can take a few casts, I say go ahead, I'm going to be a couple minutes.  Next thing I know, this buggar is into a monster!!  ::) :o ;D The Girlfriend said that was the biggest fish she had ever seen to that point, since then she has seen bigger!! ;D ;D ;D  I wasn't very impressed at the time, but was amazed with thew fish!! ;) ;D  Man that could have been mine!!! ;D
