Title: Seymour River mouth August 8th
Post by: Sinaran on August 08, 2005, 10:01:36 PM
went there again today, fished from 6 to 9 pm, it was very slow. a nice 6lbs pink was landed by someone on the other side of the river,other than that, nobody caught nothing :-\. tide was low, didn't see any jumper at all, totally different from what i saw yesterday.

well hope that when times goes by it gets better... there is that guy walking around saying that the water is to warm there... he claims to have fished it in the past and says that this year is bad cause the water is to warm.... mind you he never has his rod and he just brings his dog there so how would he know..

I fished the morning couple of days ago. A well known local fisherman caught 2 on a spoon. That was it for action.

I heard rumours a couple years ago that the cap hatchery was going to be cutting back on coho production. Could this be true maybe? if so it would sure explain alot.

Huh I am confused... what do pinks in the seymour have to do with coho in the cap

Two years ago there were tons of pinks at the Seymour. Haven't seen too many jumping or caught this year. Any theories ?

well how would the capilano system have a direct impact on this....

I think its just a terrible year.. maybe its to early.. i dont know

The common theory is that the heavy rains of October 2003 scoured all of the south coastal rivers damaging the returns of pinks this year.

One area that isn't expected to be affected is the Fraser were the return is expected to be 16 million pinks.

2 years ago, I have a distinct memory of leaving school to go catch pinks at the Seymour. Now I am no bright light, but to me that would mean I was fishing the first week of Sept. So perhaps the run is yet to come?

I was there this evening...Saw one landed.... one snagged and thats it.  A tonne of people where there and almost everyone was skunked....

fished there from 7:30pm to 9pm, nothing happened no bite no nothing what the hell.
lost two spoons as well, darn!   :(   

tide was too low and water temp was too warm might be the main reasons.
a dude told me he came in the morning when the tide was really low, and pick up lots of spoons, spiners and buzz bombs the fishermen lost before that, good catch eh!
