Post by: ynot on September 15, 2011, 02:12:34 PM
went to scale this morning looking for late sockeye, 3 of us caught 6 sockeye plus pinks  in less than 3 hrs. no springs seen.all pinks released.much better than last week for socks.

30-40 lots of room, stay to middle left side of bar. these are the late run adams weaver fish that were holding in georgia st. not sure how long its going to be good but maybe a few days.

were the sockeye chrome ?  i went about 10 days ago and there  were some bad snags on the left side of the bank , maybe ill try one last time after hearing this report , thanks

actually just checked a minute ago psc.org and seems a nice push of sox just passed , so i think scale just saw the last of them . lucky for you to head out there

Hmm, that is encouraging, thanks for the update on scale.

But you may have just gotten real lucky, that was indeed a large push that came through...I would think by now there are quite a few colored fish - no?

Must be the mandatory sockeye non-retention for the commies. only a few more days for rec sockeye so make it count!

the sockeye are a little pink on the bellies but thats quite normal on the adams fish even in august but they are still very good eating. no tickets for crossing tracks or parking on hwy 7. if you cant make long casts dont go. and be carefull not to take coho they are in the river.this late run wont last long.

the reason i put about long casts was that the socs were way out,and there were guys with no waders standing 15 ft behind the line of fishermen trying to cast, this is not the way to do it as you only catch other fisherman's lines and its a pain in the a--. also last wed. according to the dfo survey guy 3 coho were bonked that's not acceptable.

Who cares if there wearing waiters or not the waters 75 degrees. Maybe u shouldn't stand 15 ft in front of them.  then they won't cast on your line.
