Title: Chilliwack River, January 30th 2010
Post by: CohoMan on January 30, 2010, 03:27:59 PM

Fished some beautiful stretch of water today and not a single sniff. My buddy touched one for a brief second and it got off before he had to chance to battle it.

Talked to a few guys and most reported nothing for the last few days.

Few and far between, but here's how I ended my day. Had someone's hot pink procured roe in it's belly.
7.2 lb doe on the bbq while we watch the Canucks roll over the Leafs.

small but still a meal

Its been tough this week. 28th I hit one atleast 15 judging by the tail size and body thickness. had it on for about 10 seconds and she rolled into the fast waters and hook came out  :-\ she waved me goodbye and gave the jewlery back

ChromeKings was not literally chumming, he is saying that he used plenty of roe in that run without triggering a bite.

Nice fish! I found its twin in between Peach and Lickman. My first of the season ;D. She couldn't resist the prawn. Saw two other hatchies bonked and a couple wilds caught.

First time out this season.  Fished a few spots from Sumas Prairie and up..... long line release at SP, and had not heard of anything else.

Any steelie is a nice catch regardless of the size given the slower fishing condition. Congrats & thanks for the report. Just hope next week my flu bugs are done and gone so I can go back steelie hunting.  ;)
