It is only the end of January and most years our guides would be busy hitting the ski slopes, dealing with the honey do list, or just hibernating (Merr) ! But this past week i have had several guides call me to say "we are ready to go" . The weather here in British Columbia's Fraser Valley has been pretty mild this winter and the conditions are great for a little winter fishing. The Fraser River is in prime shape for some trout fishing, and the Sturgeon fishing has been quite good as well! This past week we had fish to 7 feet with good numbers of fish on most days. We fished the lower Fraser for 2 days and had a combined catch of over 30 sturgeon. The re-cap rate was only 30%, not bad for winter fishing! As long as the weather remains mild the good winter Sturgeon fishing should remain strong. The Vedder river is another good bet with Steelhead fishing beginning to turn back on this past week. Allow one of our teaching guides to help you learn more about Steelhead behavior and methods used to catch them.
BC Sport Fishing Group will be in Calgary this week at the Boat and Sportsman show from Thursday through Sunday. Come and say hi, we will be in booth 510.
