in bass lakes thats called cover

[kellya]

Nope its the nitnat. I was not fishing there though just worked. Haha the tire was a good landing platform although an eye sore. It got washed out yesterday from the high water today so i now land them where that coho was landed.

Hey Kellya , I was there last week and it was great for springs and coho (but coho just opened this weekend) You are right about the bears we were fishing with 8 bears at the most at one time there . today my buddy from Naniamo went and couldn't get his kids across the river , too high ! (and rising) but he managed a 14 lb. coho to go home with .... Zeek

Yup its high it was blown when i was there. I worked at the hatch and saw some 20lb coho. 1.3 million chum are returning so they are very thick through the river. Ill be back this week hopefully. Were the springs u got mostly dark? they are just wrapping up most we saw were very dark

Got a few more this one from this afternoon had odd scars

[Youngin]

kellya has his own secret bushy spots

[kellya]

Tough to find this spot

[cohokid]

nice fish. has nice battle wounds. way to go

[summersteel]

I predict a great fishing future ahead for you Kellya.  Good job!!

[kellya]

Thanks im still not sure about the scars i have heard ideas ranging from net to sharks. Im thinking it may have been a net although there is no netting in the river and no netting in the ocean withing 200km so it may be an old net wound.

[cohokid]

it could have been when it was a small fry it cvould have wrapped in old fishing line?? just a guess

[yammy5]

Looks like gill-net marks or might even be from a deep-sea drift net.  Those marks stay with the fish for years.  So where's a good spot to see bears on the nit-nat? My g/f would love to snap some pics.  I have never been on the river...driving up from victoria.

[kellya]

I didnt get to see much of the river. There are bears around on the roads/logging roads and probaly along the riverbank.

Try just below the confluence pool (where the little Nitnat joins in)
Lots of bears there, but be careful,
