Title: Chilliwack River, February 13th 2013
Post by: silver ghost on February 13, 2013, 09:21:01 PM: Overall, not a whole lot to report.

I lost one and landed 19... FLOATS, that is ;) I wonder what Chris' record is?

Water was on the low side, but the visibility was just as I like it to be. I saw one hatchery landed mid river around 11. That was about it for the entire day, me and my buddy fished from 7am-5pm, covering lots of water and using virtually everything under the sun from flies to roe bags.

Perhaps the fish are waiting for some more water...

Wow, was that in one day?

I think i've figured out the type of water floats like to hold in. In one particular run, there were about 12 or so stacked up real thick!

Float farming is a learned craft, requiring many years of experience before you can consider yourself a true float farmer. CG has put in those years and depends upon those farmed floats for beer money ;D ;D ;D

Please don't reveal your float farming water on an open forum ;)

Oh I wouldn't tread on Chris' territory, I know how much float farms mean to him ;)

My gathering water is wild only ;)

Post by: VAGAbond on February 18, 2013, 12:09:50 PM: You guys obviously have some secret holes not frequently visited because when I go to the river it would be a surprise to find more than three floats in a day. I am just going to have to keep looking for those hidden fish'n holes.
