Looking for a good flow for trout.
Been on the Fraser, but I'd like something that is out of the city, the less noise the better. Anywhere in the LML.

I aint obsessed with Chrome like the rest of ya, would be much happier catchin Trout anyway

cheers

You can try Sturgeon Slough in Pitt Meadows. There are three species of trout. The last time I pulled a 4 lb crap (large mouth) by using a spoon. Sturgeon Slough is right behind the Alouette River's bridge in north of Dwedney Trunk.

Aloette River is also a good spot. You can also catch Steelies there but it's just catch and release (as far as I know).

I have fished the Sturgeon Slough many times. Never ever have I seen anyone catch a trout out of there. Seen catfish,bullheads,crappie,carp and bass but never a trout. So you say three species of trout? Which three are they?

you pulled a 4lb large mouth crap out with a spoon .....hahahaha ...ha hhaaaaaa ......wow

Retention of hatchery steelhead is allowed on the Alouette River, but most seasoned anglers would recommend not to as its stock is small. If hatchery steelhead is required to be released in a particular system, it would be mentioned in the system's regulations, eg. Capilano River. This PDF file of the Region 2 freshwater regulations is handy if anyone needs to check the regulations. It is also a good guide that can be used to explore new systems for both trout and steelhead.

Stream trout fishing in the Lower Mainland is spotty but available throughout the year. Most tributaries of the Fraser and Pitt Rivers have populations of cutthroat and rainbow trout. They are migratory, especially in systems that are tidal influenced. Due to this factor, there aren't "good" flows for this fishery. If there is, you are unlikely to hear to from those who target them regularly. Your best bet is to head out and try out a few streams, look for signs of fish, and make a few casts. Not seeing any trout at a particular system repeatedly does not indicate that the system will not produce.

Didn't we pull out a 4lb crap a couple of years ago while you watched in Ladner?
