Fishing the train bridge right now. And I'm watching 4 or 5 guys posing with a dead wild steelhead they found on the beach. >:( water is beautiful to match the weather. No steel for me yet! Lots of people.

That's it, driving home now. Caught nothing,hit quite a bit of water. In the lower end, water is in very good shape. I wonder how many fish weighed in at the derby?. I saw nothing hooked or landed.

Thanks Mattyo for the instant on-the-spot report. How do you do that? Using a blackberry? Can you get access to the Internet from the river? Interesting. But thanks for the report. Like yesterday when I fished, quite slow in the lower river. :( But a nice day out with wonderful weather.

I wonder how fishermen get the label of exagerators?! :o "Oh yeah, this is a fish I caught over in chilliwack back in '09" haha

Well it was definatly a beautiful day to be out on the river even if the fishing was slow. Searun17, his son guppy and I started our day on the lower river in hopes of finding a hatchery but after a few hours and alot of walking the river we all came up empty. We then decided to move to mid river where we found some really nice water. We all spread out to fish our own runs and on the first cast on the run I was fishing I felt a tug and float down, I set the hook but came up empty. I threw a few more casts in with different offerings but it did not come back. Even searun threw in some freshly pumped ghost shrimp and still nothing. After a couple of hours and more walking it was time to call it a day and head up to the BBQ where we saw that only one fish was weight in so we did not feel so bad. After some good eats and conversations it was time to head back out for another couple of hours of fishing. Good thing we decided to fish again as the first run we came to I finally connected with a fish today on a blade. Did not put up much of a fight as it was not all that big but it sure feels nice to have a fish on. Tailed the wild doe of about 7 pounds, took a couple of pictures and gently released her to finish what she came for. All in all it was a good day

Nice Flyguy !!! I thought about hitting the river for a few casts before heading back yesterday but after loading the truck I was exhausted and all I could think about was lying on my couch and watching the hockey ;) Thanx again for all your help with the derby !!! was good to see you out there
cheers TH
