This months fly pattern is a local favourite for Coho Salmon and Cutthroat trout; it’s called Kelsey’s Hope. I use this fly extensively when fly fishing for Coho and Cutthroat on the Fraser and Harrison rivers and it seems to out fish most other patterns when the fishing is tough and the fish are finicky. I use a quick short retrieve with this fly as it imitates a darting salmon fry. It’s also a great pattern for targeting Coho Salmon on our costal beaches. Give this fly a try I’m sure you will like the results.

Returns of chum salmon to the Squamish River in 2009 are sufficient to provide
a retention opportunity on the Squamish River.

Effective 00:01 hours November 11, 2009 until 23:59 hours November 29, 2009 in
the mainstem of the Squamish River downstream of the powerline crossing located
approximately one and a half (1.5) kilometres upstream of the Cheakamus River
you may retain:

- one (1) chum per day.

You may also retain one (1) hatchery marked coho per day on the mainstem
Squamish River downstream of the powerline crossing until December 31, 2009.

The Cheakamus River and Mamquam River as well as all tributaries to the
Squamish River downstream of the powerline crossing remain closed to the
retention of chum. The opportunities on the Cheakamus and Mamquam Rivers remain
at:

- one (1) hatchery marked coho per day.

The day started off with the typical November down pour of rain, but that didn't keep the fish from biting. The sturgeon fishing was nothing less than spectacular today. The guys Dave, Jeff, Matt and John on my boat hooked 25 sturgeon and boated 20 with a couple of double headers to keep things interesting. Our other boat managed 16 sturgeon to the boat as well, that’s 36 sturgeon in only 6 hours of fishing, can it get any better? We'll find out tomorrow. Fresh Chum Salmon roe was again the bait of choice. The Fraser River always seems to amaze me at this time of the year with big numbers of sturgeon being caught daily.

Matching Sturgeon, Nice fish Matt and John

There are still lots of great fishing opportunities available until the end of November. Give us a call to arrange a great day of sturgeon fishing for you.

Well a few of the guys from Gateway Mechanical Systems of Calgary decided to take a break from one of their projects here in B.C. and spent a sunny day with us on the Fraser River is hopes of some sturgeon action. Well the mighty Fraser didn't disappoint. The tally for today was 14 sturgeon hooked and 12 were brought to the boat and gently released, pretty good average I'd say. Thanks for the fun day out guys.
There is still plenty of great sturgeon fishing on the Fraser River until the end of November, call today and check it out.

Nice Fish Guys, Dave, Dustin and Wai

Sturgeon fishing has been fantastic on the lower Fraser River with many fish in the 4-7 foot range being caught. Sturgeon fishing in the lower Fraser River is dependent on the tides and with the big mid day tides that we are experiencing right now, loads of sturgeon are pushing in daily. The best bait by far is fresh Chum roe and stink bait. This great sturgeon fishing will continue all through November as well.

Happy Clients With A Nice Sturgeon
