Hi all,

I'm looking for kids waders,  for a 7 year old boy.  Before I buy a new pair, I thought I'd ask here first.

Tight lines..

Doubt they would have made this Facebook post in 2022 if they didn't

or this post here on their webpage

I have not set foot in the place. Could care less about the river cam. Been a loyal customer of Fred’s since the early 80s.

and whats up that their email is "info@atlanticrivers.com" ??

Pacific Rivers is owned by Atlantic River Outfitters so one generic email for the company.
This is also why the heavy influence of Loop products and how they were able to be resellers of Simms products and other brands that usually give dealers exclusive territories. Fred's had many of those sorts of brands and are just down the road.

I think they are a franchise of Atlantic River outfitter. They share the information and guides. I have very good experience with Atlantic River outfitter. The gears in their website have more attractive price.

Maybe age has something to do with it.lol

If that was indeed true, you would have abandon those hapless Leafs long time ago.

Can't believe we're on the same page.

Interesting. I thought Willie Holmes owned Pacific Rivers Outfitting.

You really need to go out try these spots. I have caught a total of 1 bass in a stream  in all the 30+ years since the bass "infestation" hit our local waters. I have tried some of the still waters for bass but not with much success. Of all the places only Mill and Hatzig get consistently mentioned as spots with good bass fishing. There was a thread on Hatzig within the last month or so.

Hailing from California and Ontario, you may not be aware that bass are considered to be invasive in BC.

Others will disagree with me, but if you catch a bass I recommend killing it. Unfortunately both LMB and SMB are well established in the province and killing it is like fartin’ in a hurricane, but that’s just me. I’m somewhat tolerant of bass in bodies of water that are landlocked (ie Walmsley Lake in Albert Dyck Park) but in streams or sloughs I’m a bloodthirsty maniacal killer.

Having said that, check out the pond in front of Trinity Western University in Langley. Lots of bass. I’ve fished it a couple of times and caught small’sh ones on topwater lures. My son and his buddies have caught some tanks on spinnerbaits.

Given the proximity of the pond to the Salmon River, several years ago the university partnered with the Ministry to do an electroshocking cull of non-native fish. So, if you want to cull the ones you catch, you’ll be in good company.😀
