OutlookIt’s time to start thinking about salmon river fishing gear! And we don’t mean leader savers, bouncing betties and braided line. We are talking floats, spoons and flies for coho, chum and chinook! We are starting to hear the first reports of fish in the Fraser tributaries, and though it is still early, the Squamish system will start as soon as we see some cool weather.
Jason and Matt are pumping out orders everyday to stock up for the fall and we are seeing some cool new arrivals. We have all the good colours of trout beads for our upcoming fall trout season in the local rivers. Our fly selection just got a much needed boost with a bunch of steelhead, bull trout, and salmon flies hitting the bins, and if all the orders arrive as expected, our floats, spinners and terminal gear section will be bursting at the seams this weekend! The other new arrivals worth mentioning are the new Simms G4 jacket and the new Simms boat bags.
More great weather is coming and the salt chuck is still fishing really well. Reports of springs and sockeye are coming in every day. We are hearing whisperings of coho in the Chilliwack River and we expect things to start fishing well soon. The Skagit, Thompson and Birkenhead rivers are good options for the trout fly fishermen. Though we have not heard of any lake reports from the interior, we expect to see dropping lake temperatures and biting fishing over the next 10 days! It is still too early for some systems like the Squamish and Harrison but that will soon change and everyone should be gearing up for fall salmon in the next couple weeks.
