OUTLOOK
It has been an interesting summer for fisherman. River closures, late or low number salmon runs, mixed in with some pretty stable weather and some good lake fishing and river trout fishing.
We try to always be optimistic with our report but some weeks it can be hard. This is not one of them. I think our saltwater salmon fishing is about to really pick up. We have had some good to great fishing this week and though some wind and whales have been pushing the fish around we expect things to keep get better as more and more fish start to stage off the mouth of the Fraser. Jason has a massive report and he is sharing a ton of information on how he fishes this time of year so you will not want to miss reading it.
Though we have not been reporting on lakes in the interior, cold lakes like Tunkwa have been fishing really well and if we have a mild September we are expecting a very good fall lake season.
It’s still a little early for Vedder coho fishing but its time to start tying leaders and flies. It is only a couple weeks out. The Skagit and Thompson have been very good this season. During this time of year hatches sometimes don’t materialize but when they do, fishing can be very good. The Thompson closes at the end of the month but Skagit should be good for another month at least. Check out Matt’s report for details.
Finally don’t miss out on our upcoming September classes and cool opportunity to support our friends at the Pacific Salmon Foundation.
