Title: Stave River, November 2nd 2013
Post by: Hohummm on November 04, 2013, 11:41:06 AM

Fished on the west side for a few hours in the cold rain and wind on Saturday afternoon on the incoming tide. Hooked and released two wild ones on blades, lost another near the shore before I could see if it had an adipose or not. Definitely a coho though.

Switched to jigs when the blades slowed down and got into a few chum before my fingers got too cold to tie knots....some sort-of bright looking ones, but nothing worth taking home today.

Nice Fish! There were so few people fishing that day it was kind of nice to have lots of room to fish.

Hooked a few coho on blades and missed one and lost another on a little olive bugger, lots of coho that have their colour. Enough coho from the past few trips so fished just chum later and it was great fun as usual. Jigs, 3 feet from float to jig, drift it right and fish on 7/10 casts pretty much. Fished for coho until the tides turned then moved down for the chum. Fished it the last 2 weeks with plenty of chrome fish like the one on the bottom. Hooking many of these little 4-6 pound does. Sunday got warm enough to take the wading jacket off. Cool to get some nice float down footage.

Picked that one up at Hatch Match'r in Maple Ridge a couple years ago. It's been a pretty consistent producer. My #2 choice after a plain gold plated colorado blade.
