Vedder River October 8/9 weekend
« Reply #16 on: October 11, 2005, 10:39:03 PM »
Came down for a weekend of COHO fishing, major dissappointment.  Did not see a coho caught the entire weekend and fihed two of the more rewarding runs over the last several years.  Where are the coho? Is it true that the slide 4 years ago has a major influence or are they just slow?? Read where lots of you are ?catching? them but I sure havent seen it.
Good note, lots of other fish to play, kept one clean chum for smoking and eggs and had several nice springs one about 35 lbs.  Saw others caught easily in the 40's and one that had to be 55 lbs. A huge bronze coloured that turned out to be a red spring!  Lots of very nice jacks as well! Will try again next weekend to see if I can hook into a coho may have to keep a few whites for smoking as well.  By the way what is the rule for keeping jacks and springs, I know that it is one chum a day but seems to be confusion on springs.

You are allowed to retain 4 chinooks, only one of which can be over 62 cm. The rest can be jacks.

Well that would mean letting a lot go as most of the springs i saw caught were close to or over 62.  Do u have to mark jacks on your lisence?  But once agqain where are the coho!!!

You do not have to mark jacks on the licence, only the adult (over 62cm long). Bring a measuring tape.

Where are the coho? In the water of course. ;)

Lets hope the coho are late as they are not there in numbers yet as the Master was back to our hot spot this evening. He only got one coho and saw none surfacing like they have in past years.

The coho run this year is definitely different from prior years.  At this higher water level & near mid-Oct., they should have been coming up in full force by now.  Let's hope they are just late and not in trouble. But why are the springs so plentiful this early?  ???
