Sturgeon Fishing
Sturgeon Fishing has been very good over the past Month. Luke and Eric have been busy on the water and have lots to show for it. We are seeing a good quantity and quality of fish, averaging 4-7 feet in length. We are hooking 6-15 fish on our half day charters. These fish are quite aggressive now as they are packing on the pounds for winter. We are having our success on salmon roe, salmon parts and Lamprey. We are coming into our peak fishing months for sturgeon on the Fraser River so give us a shout to discuss your options.
Salmon Fishing
We are well into sockeye season and the fishing is quite good right now. We have had some great days but a few where there seemed to be no fish on the sounder. We have seen schools moving in daily but they haven’t been stacking up very well. This should change shortly as these late fish tend to stage better. We are having our best luck with the T-10, Bon Chovy and STS Delta Gibbs Guide Series Flashers with pink hootchies. As for springs, we are having some luck around the bell buoy, T-10 and down at sandheads. This is the time of year to target some big Fraser river Chinook. Come by the office on Granville to get geared up for the rest of the season.
Fly Fishing
The Thompson River has provided some good fishing for trout. This will likely change when the sockeye move in and push the trout out of there preferred fishing lanes. September is right around the corner and this marks the beginning of salmon season on our local rivers. We are very excited for the Squamish River to come back to life.
