OUTLOOK We have a beautiful weekend incoming! With temperatures well above the seasonal average and sun throughout the entire weekend, it should be a great time to go fishing! We will see the same weather hitting the Interior, with temperatures reaching into the 30s on Sunday and Monday. However, this rise in temperature comes with…
OUTLOOK Freshet has kicked in. We saw a big rise on all of our Lower Mainland rivers, and we have also seen some flooding and road advisories in the Interior around Cache Creek. If you are heading that direction, make sure to check road conditions and closures. We have details on the Chilliwack and Squamish…
OUTLOOK Is Summer now coming? We have been waiting for spring weather to really kick in but, this weekend we are going to see almost summer level temperatures! This is good news for many of our fisheries but for others heat is a problem. On the Chilliwack River, there are still opportunities to get out,…
OUTLOOK There is warmer dry weather incoming! Just not this weekend. It looks as though we will see another damp weekend, but the good news is next week, we will see clear skies and increasing temperatures. We might even see our first high teens weekend next week in Vancouver and 20s in the interior! We…
OUTLOOK We have another spring storm rolling across the coast this weekend. It looks very similar to last week’s bump of water. Though there were challenging river levels and clarity issues last weekend, the fishing was excellent when you planned your day and picked areas of clear water. We expect similar results this week, so…
OUTLOOK The rain is here! The ice is coming off and we have a long weekend incoming! Even though we would all love to see a nice sunny Easter weekend the rain is a good thing. We will see a substantial dump this weekend up the Sea to Sky and out the valley with 50mm…
OUTLOOK It’s a big week in BC fishing. It’s new licence time so if you are heading out on the salt or freshwater make sure to get a new licence. It is all done online via the following links. Get a BC Fishing Licence Click here for Saltwater Fishing licences and here for a BC…

OUTLOOK Spring is poking her head out! With temperatures hitting the low teens this weekend, we are excited to hopefully see the cold weather behind us. We are still dealing with low water levels on most of our river systems but the combination of the time of year and the warmer temperatures, should make this…
There is finally a warming trend COMING, or at least seasonal average temperatures for the next week. One thing we are not seeing is a substantial dump of rain. There are a few drizzles in the forecast but not enough to move river levels.
OUTLOOK First off, we wanted to start by thanking everyone who came out for our 2023 Stillwater Fly Tying Jam Session. It was amazing to see all the innovative lake patterns and we hope everyone who attended learned a thing or two. If you missed the event, or just want a little review of the…
OUTLOOK The weather is going to be a big focus over the next few weeks. Why? Typically, this is a time of transition, a time when things start getting warmer and fisheries pick up. When we look at the weekend forecast, the 14-day forecast and even into the 30-day forecast the outlook is not good….
OUTLOOK Big news this week on the saltwater regulations front! There is good news and bad news. It looks as though there might be areas close to Vancouver where they will “test” marked selective fisheries (MSF). In a nutshell what does this mean? If all goes as planned, we will have limited areas during the…
OUTLOOK Well, the weatherman was a little off last week. The storm that was forecast didn’t materialize. We expected a blowout on the Squamish and steady water conditions on the Chilliwack. The Squamish didn’t budge and stayed low and clear. The Chilliwack didn’t blowout but we did see some milkier colored water. We then saw…
OUTLOOK We have an interesting week of weather coming and it’s well worth paying attention too if you are heading out on the water. There is a big storm on the horizon that is rolling in today. The majority of it will hit Vancouver and up the Sea to Sky corridor but enough water is…
OUTLOOK There is a solid weekend of fishing weather incoming but, a cold snap is on the horizon. With temperatures in the high single digits today through Sunday it looks like a good weekend to get out but, it is going to get cold Sunday and into next week so expect fishing to change. In…
OUTLOOK Seasonally normal weather incoming! It’s funny that we are excited about seasonably “normal” weather but, for the last 5 months, we have seen very little “normal” weather. This week’s forecast is not perfect for fishing but we can say it is a “good” forecast and should be more predictable in how it affects our…
OUTLOOK Friday the 13th and an INCOMING STORM WARNING! As we are writing the report, we are seeing a forecast that needs to be on your radar if you are heading out fishing over the next 5 days. The heavy rain is focused on the Sea to Sky Corridor but we will also see a…
