Title: Fishing Coquitlam River
Post by: hmike on September 22, 2016, 02:29:57 PM

Yesterday, I saw 1 guy fishing on Coquitlam river. Just below the bridge. It seemed he had a fish on, but since I was riding a bike, I didn't get a closer look. I was wondering, since salmon fishing is closed (with some exceptions), if Coquitlam river is open.
