Post by: jettabambino on August 23, 2013, 09:35:10 PM: So ... I am wondering cause its unclear....

Is the highway from squamish to vancouver gonna have any delays..?

My understanding is no

Also does the commercial fishery effect in that much . Isn't it at ita prime

Post by: HKSR on August 25, 2013, 03:42:54 PM: I got into a chromer yesterday, but I think I was lucky. We checked the mouth of the river and there were 4 commercial vessels loading up with pinks.

Wow the ratio of stale to chromers is pretty high.

Yes, but I was expecting worse with Commercial opening and the 14 other people I could hit with a roll cast all around. But, I saw NO chrome out of the fish the other guys kept, and I saw 2 fresh chrome that guys had on, but lost. So the ratio is indeed VERY low.
