Decided to head out after all late last night. Made it to the river at about 4:20am. We were the first people at Seabird this morning, and man was it nice being able to pick any spot on the whole bar. Turns out we picked right. I was done with 2 Socks real qiuck. Gt and our Buddy Dave took a bit longer, but we were all done by 10am. Was a nice quick day out on the flow, and it had picked up a far amount from the day before. :)
The crowd was good and polite this morning, and some of the people there who were there yesterday as well, were still feeling a bit somber. :(

Good to hear some good sock fishing!!
Did you happen to see anyone else catching anything?
-
way to go BS! Sounds like a good day. How busy was it later in the day there? I myself went out today until 1. it was pretty slow. managed only 4 socks together in our group. i also lost what i believe was a spring.

Gee big steel I thought that you where not going to post today. I sure had a tough time keeping the sox to stick today hopefully tomorrow it will change. I think I am going to change to gammys. Even the spring came off. I think I was 2 for 6 for the sox and 0 for 1 on the springs today. We would of been done even earlier. Hopefully tomorrow will be quick.
-
Wow.. that has to be the first time BS has actually outfished anyone.... I don't think he wants to fish with me anymore :) you can be sure he will go with you again.. you must have made him look good lol
-
No I didn't make him look good. ;D ;D But he did tell me that you must be bad luck for him ;D lol. He usually does really well when we go out together but tomorrow is another day.
-

Haha ohh dear!!!
Like my gramps used to say " Storms a brewin'...stoorrms a brewin' "
Haha noo.

No he was talking leader length. I feel that this still may be a bit much, as I have had most of my sucess over the years with a 10-12 foot leader. :)
-
Haha it will probably look really sad to people but I dont even know how to floss them!!! :o :o :o
But I geuss its no a bad thing :)
-
PM sent Lil fishermen. Hope this helps out a bit. :) Everyone has to start somewhere. Contrary to what a lot of people say, this isn't a no skill fishery. There are so many little things that must be done right when in a big crowd of people to ensure a possitive experience. :) Flossing the Fraser itself is easy if there isn't anyone around. The tough part come when you have people fishing 3' apart all the way down the bar.
-
Ok thanks BS!
Will try it out if I can get out to the river!
Good Luck bud!
"Tight Lines"
,Lil Fisherman

10 feet is plenty or the length of your rod! Use too much and it is difficult to handle especially with the crowds. Someone is going to get it in the eye especially if it is windy! I went to lighter leader today and no corky and did quite well. Sharp hook as well.
-
By the way, they floss themselves! :D
-
Nice fish Cody. Seems everyone wearing Riverside Fly & Tackle clothing these days is doing quite well. 8) 8) 8)

Never been to Seabird... passed it going to Langstrom ...
Where is the turnoff/parking?
What is the trail like and how long?
Thanx
