I know it's still early, but does anyone know if the pinks have started to move in yet?
Campbell River Pinks
- Thread starter Summer Steel
- Start date
Last weekend was good. Not one every cast but enough bright fish to make it fun. Later on they get soft and are hard not to foul hook. A couple of guys were illegally keeping them above the Quinsam. Watch for a 30-40 year old chubby guy that can't stop yapping. Water is a nice temperature for wet wading.

I managed to tag a couple. Didnt witness any other caught.
I had to mix things up to figure something out that would produce. Went against traditional Pink tactics.
After I got a couple off on my own. I had 4 guys come from a ways away to snuggle up entirely too close to me. As if all the fish were at my feet.
Super fresh fish though. On to the bbq tomorrow.

Fly fishing on the river??
New to the area, locations on CR to fish and where to avoid?

Yes there is good fly fishing on the Campbell right now for pink salmon. Most of the other flows are too low and warm.
I suggest going to the "fly only" section of the river. It's easy to find on the upper part of the river. Good luck.
