saturday had to be the best day i have had on the fraser fishing.fishing partner dave and i head out to upper wellington
meet up with collin partner number two.had all three bar rods out by 8.00am not to yearly.we all had pinks on right away
kind of cool to start.after a number of fish being on i landed a 6-7lb coho very nice fish released quick. collin hit a nice red spring
jack sometime after that.about noon i got a 15-18lb red spring.yearly afternoon dave land a huge spring 30 plus and then the luck guy land a 13-15 lb coho. after all the hours bar fishing this year and not getting anything this day made up for it.

Thanks for the report.  Was it busy?  I'm looking to go bar fishing this Saturday but don't like the crowds.

Isn't there a bait ban in fraser now? maybe bar fishing is possible without bait?

Bar fishing is totally possible without bait a lot of bar fishermen barely ever use it. Bare spinning glow is fine.

Are the Wellington Bars boat-only access?  Any suggestions for bars with shore access that are barfing friendly?

As Noset said, barfishing in the non-tidal portion of the Fraser River is mostly done with a spin-n-glow and bait is not necessary. When permitted, a roe bag added to the hook below the spin-n-glow is quite effective for chinook jack late in the season. There is indeed a bait ban right now on both the tidal and non-tidal portions of the Fraser River until early October when fishing for salmon.

On the other hand, barfishing (or simply bottom fishing) in the tidal portion of the Fraser River is mostly done with roe. Once the bait ban is lifted, it should be good for coho and chum salmon.

I know I was hoping to get you out on the bar but the Leaf Craft has not hit the water yet this season. If it does I will be giving you a call.
