Title: Tidal Springs
Post by: barklee on July 06, 2014, 05:19:56 AM

When season is open is it possible to catch springs in the tidal Fraser. Berry's tell me that spin n glows won't spin too slow and that bar fishing with bait/roe is only option d/t clarity. How about using lures are they found too low in the river. I am asking fishing from shore not trolling in boat. Any ideas on technique or rigging. I have also heard that temperature of water also matters.

does nobody have ideas on rigs for springs in tidal? On such a large river do they stay near bottom?

The later run of springs ( fall run ) are your better bet. The Fraser will be running clearer and the Spring jacks will be around. Those jacks come in closer and are roe pigs.
