Title: Capilano River, July 5th 2011
Post by: cutthroat22 on July 05, 2011, 06:54:00 PM

Went 6-9:30pm.

Schools of coho were plentiful as the tide peaked and made for a nice evening despite not landing any.

I learned a new technique watching a guy at Cable Pool.  His float would slide up his line about 20 feet to the bobber stop and when his gear was on bottom he would yank really hard.  I need to try this sometime.

Just my luck! Yesterday was the first day that I could not make much time at the river! Hundreds of fish went through the lower end between noon and dark! My relatives had a hay day!That's the way it goes sometimes. You win some or lose some. Definately lots of ho's up the river now. Should be a good weekend up there! Good luck fellas!

The tide started rising a little before noon and continued to rise until dark and 100's of fish came up with it.

As these fish are a little late, are they bigger?  or 2-3 lbers?

Something around that size 2-3lb but there are bigger ones.  Lots of fish coming up yesterday as well.
