Title: upper mamquam river
Post by: chrisc54 on January 06, 2015, 03:48:22 PM

Hey everyone, Just for a change of pace from the cheakamus and squamish i figured i would venture up the mamquam river forest service road and try some of the holes along there. I havent ever been up there but i have heard theres some resident bulls cutties dollies ect. Does anyone have any info on this area, that would be great!


thanks for your time everyone

Not much up that far but there should be a rainbow or bull trout here and there.They dont go that far because they mainly eat salmon eggs which are in the mid river.

There is a 60ish foot falls that serves as an upstream migration barrier to anadromous fish. There may be a few fish above it but they would be residents.

Rainbows and very small Dolly Varden is what I've caught up there.  Not a lot of action really but some nice scenery.

Then still worth a visit in my opinion. :)
