Hey Guys,
I know very little about this topic and don't know if it can be done in freshwater that is still ice free, or if you have to still be in tidal for this; or even what actually IS open during the winter.
WHERE can you go to fish for Steelies during the winter up the central coast? I know talking to a friend in Smithers that the Bulkley is pretty much done due to ice now and he mentioned we would likely have to look towards Terrace area?
Anyone able to shed some insight? My sort of brother in law is wanting to get 3 of us to do a trip if it can happen....I just have to do the 'research'.
Also....what type of gear do you use? Do you chuck flies.....or is it more gear-type fishing?
If it IS flies....I gotta hit the field by house and start practicing!!
I figure if I am going to get the Steelie bug....why just dabble....I may as well just jump right in and head north of Vancouver.
Cheers and thanks for any info you can provide.
