Updated March 1st, 2010
Capilano-
Steelhead fishing has been far better than previous years, multiple fish day's have been reported between the highway bridge up river to the hatchery, Good Steelhead fishing should continue through to April.
Squamish River-
Dollie Varden fishing through the winter months can be fantastic, fly fishing with single egg and flesh fly patterns or streamer's simulating sculpin or fry immitations will work. Gear fisherman have good success casting spoons and spinners.
Vedder Chilliwack-
Steelhead fishing has been good as of late, lots of fresh fish are still entering the lower river and there has been a good mix of both hatchery and wild fish reported. Good fishing will continue through to the month of April.
Remember that a Freshwater fishing lisence and Steelhead Stamp are required when fishing. You may reatin only one hatchery marked Steelhead per day , once you have retained a fish you must stop fishing for the day. All wild Steelhead must be released with care.
Chehalis -
Fair numbers of both hatchery and wild Steelhead have been reported as of late. Fishing is tricky during low water on this system, during high water, if visability is good, or just after high water when fresh fish have arrived will be the best time to fish the river.
Upper Fraser-
As spring approaches and water tempatures rise, sturgeon fishing will start to pick up. The eulachon migration usually begins around mid to late March, these small fish will be the sturgeon's main food source through spring and early summer.
Cuthroat fishing can be very productive this time of year. As salmon fry migrate towards the ocean they will mill around the Fraser river bakchannels, cuthroat will be awaiting to ambush. Casting small spoons and spinners or fly fishing with salmon fry immitations are good bet's.
