Even though the chances are low, its good to be out even for few hours close to my place. Will give some of those spots a try. Have you caught any Coho on fraser using spincast? just curious

Not common but I've had a couple during previous pink seasons on spoons. This time of year would also be a rare occurrence, but not impossible. The lower the water clarity, go bigger on the presentation and hope for the best

when you throw spoons or fish spinners on the Fraser you don't fish for anything specific. I have caught coho, cutthroat and once 3 chum in 20 minutes. Boy were they dark!

Thats cool....thanks all....atleast ill get to spend some time fishing since its very close to my place and dont have to think twice.....

Note that the openings in the tidal portion is broken up into two stages. October 31st for downstream from Port Mann, and November 2nd downstream from Mission. Non-tidal downstream from Hope opens on November 3rd. This have been weeks of communications back and forth between myself and the resource managers to get these open on the dates which they should be. Last year, nobody was on top of this and the openings didn't start until November 15th. It's unnecessary time and energy wasted on reminding the department to provide the opportunities for rec fishers when they should be.

Regarding casting spoons and spinners for coho. I've probably caught more coho by lure fishing than bait fishing in the Tidal Fraser River since the mid 90s. Water clarity is excellent this year so I'd think success should be better than other years.

Any Tidal reports?  Saw a couple jacks caught at Brownsville Friday.  I'm going to give it a try tomorrow.

I fished langley from 3:30 to 5:30. a few nibble, nothing caught

[Jamier]

Fished Glen Valley yesterday.  High to low tide. 1 sturgeon, 2 wild jacks, 1 hatchery jack, which I kept.  Missed a few other good bites.  Overall not a bad day for this late in the season.
Weather was wild but managed to stick it out for the day.

nice! what size was the sturgeon? Not big enough to brake your coho rod XD. 3 fish is a lot better than no fish.
