c.askin They just had a commercial opening/ gill netters were in there. I'm not sure if it was moaday night or tuesday night. That might have had something to do with it....if they were there monday night.

I was talking to a young fellow in Port Albernie on tuesday and he told me there were 2000 fish caught or entered in the derby during the long weekend

[wetbeaver]

what pools did you fish steelheadman falls, slide pool? or lower been getting interested in starting to fish the rivers cost a lot less in gas.

 

[mthornton]

Yeh steelheadman. Where were you fishing for springs? When I was there last weekend I didnt see a single spring go by me? Anyway just wonderin

 

[darmin]

I was up the stamp again today I saw 2 springs at stamp falls didnt try for them as there were a couple guys allready with there sights on them I fished the slide pool and thru the gun club area talked with the game warden he told me the natives have had openings for the last 3 nights they've taken 9000 fish they have an allotment of 20,000 springs the total catchable is 60,000. 20,000 for the sporty guys {not a chance we will get that many} and 20,000 for commercial guys there expecting over 100,000 chinook so the river will load up. oh he also told me there getting very few coho in there nets we need some rain

 

[mthornton]

Are the natives done fishing or will they keep fishing till they get there total? It's supposed to rain tonight so would it be a pretty good idea to fish the stamp tommorow? By the way where is the slide? Anyway are the chinook going up the river now or are they just coming in at high tide then going back out? If so do they usually just go up at night or high tide? If they go up at high tide hong long does it take the fish to get to say, the gun club? Anyway thanks for all the info!

Check the regs. if your at the falls pool you may want to look up at the sign posting closed to all finfish until nov. 15. What guy's will do to pester the poor bastards.-dirty

 

[reel easy]

I agree dirty, Let em spawn!!!! kick the Indians out too

 

[mthornton]

You guys fish in the inlet and the ocean and they are all headed for the same place!!!! So you guys are doing the same thing people in the rivers are doing so dont think so much higher of yourself!

 

[mthornton]

I definetly agree to kick the indians out of the river though! Anyway tight lines everyone
