Hello Gents, looking for some general knowledge here......I'm in vernon. I use to make the odd trip to the Kitimat area, even the island when my folks where alive, but with kiddies and life in general I've just dropped out of fishing altogether to a bit...time to get back in. When I moved here I had high hopes of Thompson Steelhead....seems thats a difficult dream to chase in the last few years. I love salmon/steelhead so that's what I'm after....I've got a shop full of fishing gear, so hoping to sell some off here in your Classifieds and consolidate a bit...
I have casting gear, way too much fly gear....was thinking of moving some of that and looking for a Center Pin set-up.....
I've got a 11' with a Abu 7000, my salmon rig
a 6'6' with a 6500....bit short but thought it might be Ok of lighter steelhead
An older 10.5' spinning rod I built years ago....was wondering if I could re-build it into a float rod....
10' switch rod...never use it
13' Echo spey rod....I did use that one
11'6" light spey..should sell or remake into a light float rod
What are the most useful setups to have? say 3 set ups?
What are my seasons/opening near here in the last 2 years? Has the Thompson been producing at all? I hear steelies are open this year, with 1000 fish returning.....
Am I looking at driving down to Hope/Chill are each time as the best use of a day?
Sorry to the general ramblings....really just trying to get a feel for the area/sport again after being out for a bit...without reading 10 different sights and sorting through the regs......some general areas/places to start out would be great too....not your honey holes....just general areas and times where things start to happen...so I can plan my calander
thanks much
