Seals in the Fraser
« on: August 29, 2011, 09:00:12 PM »
Do the seals not bother coming up the river when it is so high and turbid?  I haven't seen any this year.  Though I did see a beaver :P.

Good question.  I have not seen a seal this year where I fish in Richmond and usually see them regularly.

Theres lots of seal in there. I've seen several in the Langley area and also above the crossing in the vedder. I almost got knocked over by one while fishing a seam, he was jumping from the slack water into the current and just about clipped me. Almost peed my pants, scared the cupcakes out of me :)

I've been seeing seals regularly in the Chilliwack area.  Do they ever leave?  Or are they pretty much resident in the the LML fraser.  I also see them in Harrison Lake -- figured those ones are definitely residents.  Anyone know?
