i know what you mean bob....last year there was loads more than this year but i think that is down to the lack of rain here this year, the river is so low, the biggest caught this year was 36lb last year it was 52lb i'm off fishing in nov-dec for the steelheads, lets hope there's a few big ones around.....

Look like pink salmon mate, quite a few turned up in UK rivers last year, only seen on report from this year but last years cut reds and bred by look of it...….a lot of the salmon guys were flapping about it...……...

cheers mac, we really enjoy waiting and watching the run but not so many this year, your mates looked like they have done well....did you see any news about a couple of men caught a 300lb sturgeon then bundled it in the back of there truck to sell the caviar and the fish for meat from the Fraser river yesterday.....they were filmed by another fisherman who called the cops but they had gone by the time they got there 15 mins later, so the cops went back that evening to check, and guess what......the two blokes had only gone back that evening, the cops nabbed them and they are looking at jail time, i'm sure you could find the story on it somewhere on the net.....

I don't think they will be popular around Chilliwack Tilly,the place revolves around sturgeon catch and release fishing,the fish looks big in the footage.
