I took off as soon as it was over so I didn't have to line up in traffic. ;D

River rising this Am and visibility not that good. I made a few casts but retreated of the Island I was on so I could safely cross. Also the camp near Sweltzer just got cleaned up in time on Friday as would uncrossable for the cleanup gang and occupants

Dropping back down nicely again, should be fishable shortly if not already.

Just enjoy your day on the flow.. it is calling fishing.... not catching.

It is all about the peace of the flow and the beautiful surroundings....  enjoy.

Most times yes. But if we never caught fish it would be called boating or hiking. I fish to catch fish first. Surroundings second. At peace with nature third. But it's all about the fish.

Catching fish is great fun.... but really as you get older you appreciate your time in fresh air and being on the water as much more important than towing a fish into shore.

There should be a hot tub at every main access point in the lower river. It'd solve a lot of fishery issues.

Fill your waders with hot water like I do and you can have a hot tub with you all day.

As fishing in BC continues to evolve.....  more and more of us will have to get see it as day on the river and less and less about bonking a salmon .
