OUTLOOK
2018 is almost in the books and we hope that everyone had an excellent 2018 and enjoyed some time with friends and family this Christmas Season. For us it was an amazing year filled with good fishing, another boat down at our docks, a great team in the shop and countless great moments on and off the water with friends and customers. On the fisheries side of things 2018 was an interesting one. There was some truly amazing fishing but there are also some challenging concerns. In this week’s report we are going to keep it simple. We want to thank everyone who has supported us this year and all the years before and wish you all nothing but the best in 2019. Jason will be writing a little more focused fishing “State of the Union” address next week where we can look at what is to come for 2019.
As we write this report the Famous Fisherman’s Boxing Week Sale at the shop is in full swing. If you haven’t been down yet, don’t worry you still have time! Everything in the shop is on sale until Monday December 31 and there are still tons of great deals to be had.
On the fishing front with any luck the crazy storms of last week will be in the past. Obviously 100km winds put a damper on pretty much all outdoor sports that didn’t require a helmet and body armor.
This week we are going to see some more rain but nothing like what we saw before Christmas. Jason was out on Boxing Day hunting for winter chinook so be sure to read his report for latest on all things saltwater.
River fishing is also worth looking at and even though we have rain the forecast both the Squamish and Vedder are at fishable levels and we expect decent fishing over the weekend. They held the 74th Annual Boxing Day Steelhead Derby on the Chilliwack River on the 26th. A handful of fish hit the scales. We would have liked to see more fish weighed in but it is hard to gauge a year’s run off of one day of fishing.
We have heard some reports off the Stave and Capilano as well over the last week. With reports of one steelhead on the Capilano and some good egg fishing on the Stave for white fish. For more details check out the Freshwater Fishing Report section below.
