Title: Fraser Report July 17
Post by: Aurora on July 17, 2004, 09:09:05 PM

Got to the river around 1 and began fishing.  Asked around and found that there were no reports of any fish being caught.  Fished for about an hour when I noticed FunFish heading down the bank.  Said Hi and gave him my sad report of no fish.  Soon after he had left to go down river to try his luck I hooked into something.  A few head shakes and my main line snapped.   >:(  After that, nothing.  Tried for about 2 hours then went down river to see how Funfish was doing.  On the way I spoke to someone who did catch a nice Spring.  Looked about 15lb.  As I arrived he was pulling in a Sockeye.  I helped him release it and then found out that is the only fish he had caught so far.    I guess to sum things up, things were kinda slow.  Hope things pick up tomorrow.

Thanks for the report. Were you fishing the Chilliwack area or more around Hope? Thanks.

Closer to hope.  Not sure what you call it.  I call it snaggy bar because you usually lose a lot of gear.

Fished Island 22 all morning two springs landed out of a group of 20+, moved over to Spaghetti just in time for a run, 4 boats landing fish all at the same time including ours, nice 19 pounder. But yes, slow...
