My experience in calling ORR was that I spoke with a Fisheries Officer directly, and that Officer was the one that conducted the investigation. Last March I called ORR to report a landowner's habitat destruction (streamside logging/vegetation clearing) along a salmon bearing stream in the...

Thanks BGM. I had a look at their website and see no indication that the OFN has any governance over US Columbia River recreational sockeye openings . Or do they?

In a recent Northwest Fishing Reports fishing TV episode they were fishing for sockeye (primarily Canada-bound fish) in the Columbia River below the Brewster Dam. Admittedly, I wasn't aware that this US fishery existed. I knew that there were terminal fisheries in US lakes for sockeye (i.e...

Found this on the beach too. The owner didn't get back to me when I contacted him. Homemade float, Bottom leg is filled with lead so it floats upright. Pretty skookum unit but I have no use for it. Yours for the taking. Located in Surrey/Fleetwood

Found this when I was picking up beach trash. Thought someone here may want it as a spare or a replacement. Located in Surrey/Fleetwood

Two buddies and I are doing some guided fishing out of Tahsis in early August and are interested (if we have have enough energy!) to do some shore trout fishing in the evenings. None of us have been to Tahsis before but I would expect there to be some sea run cutthroat off the nearby beaches...

Sobo has a very nice smoked salmon chowder. Tofino Brewing's Blonde Ale is excellent Do takeout and enjoy both together!

Also, at Garry Point Park in Steveston off the various points of land in between the "scalloped" beaches. Although the rip rap on the points can be tricky, and only a handful of anglers can fish each point.

I had to read this 3 or 4 times, over a couple of sittings, before it finally sunk in!

Your gift giving skills are superb! To use stuffed animals to give jewelry is creative and fun, but the gifts of the cartoon and the studio are top level creative. You're right, you are a good listener and thoughtful and creative too. Props brother. Keep up loving your woman.

There is FN lands overlay for Google maps https://www.nrcan.gc.ca/data-canada-lands-surveys/11092#CLGoogleEarth I have used in in the past for other FN lands, but to be honest I'm having a little trouble with the interpretation of the Capilano Reserve area. A good resource, at any rate

No doubt the glory days of smelt are behind. I grew up in Ontario and dipnetting for rainbow smelt was a rite of spring, Garbage bags of fish were the norm.

I fish for smelt in the LM but not in Vancouver. Haven't been out this year, and I just went once last year, but on that one outing for 1-2 hours (Aug 22) I got ~100 smelt, including 60 in one set. Over the past couple years, I haven't seen a noticeable decline, but then again I've only be...

Good reminder. I forgot about those. I have fished them in the past with good results.

As mentioned, I fish spoons in the 1/8 or 1/6 oz size. I will go up to 1/4 if it's windy and I need to cut the wind but my preference is to go small and relatively light. For two decades, my spoon of choice has been the Gibbs Ultra. They stopped producing the Ultra several years ago but I...

I've only fished sea run ct up-island in your neck of the woods once. Aug 17, 1997 to be exact. Family reunion at Mount Washington and I snuck away one evening. Hooked 4 ct, landed 2; a wild and a clipped, both around 13-14". Been hankering to get back ever since. I don't flyfish for sea run...

Didn't have a boat, but when I took my two sons shore fishing I made sure I had three key items: 1) snacks 2) toys 3) change of dry clothes

Fair enough on a fishing forum, but not something I want to hear if you are my attending physician :)

FWIW, there is a free boat launch at Wards Marina at the Stewart Farmhouse about a mile upstream.
