I have never bar fished but it sounds like fun.. How do i do it.... what do i tie up.... Also where do i do it. From reading it i can see its done in the fraser but where are the Bars... like are there designated spots or do you just drive to the fraser and go anywhere...... I dont want and secret spots but maybe one of the common spots... Thanks boys and girls.....

Go to any tackle shop and pick yourself up a couple of bar rigs and some bar weights. While there, pick up a book entitled Bar Fishing the Lower Fraser River by Hugh Heighton. The book is approximately $5.00 and it shows you the rigging and the locations of several bars along the Fraser. Use roe or dew worms for bait. Bring yourself a nice chair and you're set.

does that book tell me where to go in the river.... Is it alot of fun or is it better to drift fish...
how far away from vancouver is the nearest productive bar that you can fish from shore

Yes, that book gives directions to the popular bars in the Lower Fraser. There are many, many bars near Vancouver. Any bars in Richmond is good.
