OUTLOOK Well it looks like we are in for some wet weather for the foreseeable future. There are heavy rainfall warnings for Squamish, Vancouver, and the Lower Mainland. It looks like we will be getting 40-50 mm on Saturday and Sunday so this should blow out all the rivers from the Squamish all the way…
OUTLOOK As we head into March we’re looking at another week of sun and warmer than average temperatures. With little to no precipitation in the long range forecast we expect things to be low and clear on our local rivers. So be sure to adjust your tackle to match the conditions and check out this…
OUTLOOK Sun and steady temperature is the story for most of this week. While it is still warmer than seasonal averages it is a touch cooler than we have seen in the last few weeks. This should mean some changes for a number of our river fisheries. Things look good for this weekend but we…
Honolulu is known for epic surfing, Pearl Harbour, shaved ice and bad traffic, but for those who love warm water fishing it is known as one of the most challenging big bonefish destinations in the world. For years I have heard stories of anglers fishing Hawaii and at first I didn’t put much stock in…
OUTLOOK We are excited not to be reporting about a major rainfall event! A cold dry spell of weather is coming and it should make for some great fishing opportunities. We have rain today and tomorrow but from Sunday onwards it looks as though things will clear up and temperatures will drop. When we say…
Outlook 2014 went by in a flash, and we are about to embark on another year of angling! Winter steelhead season is underway in the Fraser Valley, and things will only get better from here. Fish are now getting caught daily, but it is still early in the grand scheme of things. This week’s cold…
Outlook The weatherman is forecasting light winds in the harbour and only a few spotty showers in the valley. It also looks as though we will see a warming trend Saturday – Sunday. These are all good things for the winter angler, whether you like hiking rivers or braving the salt chuck. Many of the…
There is no need to wait until the spring or summer to get out on the water and get your fishing fix! In Vancouver we are blessed with ability to fish every day of the year, with the weather usually being our only hinderance! This year we are experiencing some of the best winter chinook…
Outlook We are just past the midpoint of the month and all and all 2015 is off to a great start. It is still early for steelhead but I think everyone can say that the reports are all very encouraging and if things continue at this rate we are in for a very good season….
OUTLOOK More warm rain in the forecast!? If you look back at the last three months of reports it is almost entertaining to see how many times we have reported rainfall warnings and for the most part they have come with warm temperatures. This report is not going to break the trend. It looks like…

Outlook This past week was a cold one in Vancouver, and with it came the first snow! Lucky for us, the weather is warming up nicely and should be much more enjoyable to fish in. Next week’s rain may blow out our Lower Mainland rivers, which is not a bad thing in the grand scheme…
Outlook A momentary break in the nasty weather has allowed the local rivers to drop into a high but fishable state. Unfortunately, more rain is expected over the weekend, and this will likely push the rivers back out of the realm of fishability. The good news is, next week is supposed to be dry for…
Outlook It has been an interesting week here in the Lower Mainland, and all of southwest British Columbia. We were hit by several intense Pacific storms bringing unseasonably warm temperatures and extreme amounts of precipitation in a short period of time. Many parts of the province have seen flooding and landslides, resulting in home evacuation…
Outlook It seems as though we are finally back to “normal” Vancouver weather. Last week’s cold snap has made way for mild and rainy weather. Friday’s rain will affect most of our Lower Mainland streams, although unlikely we may see them blow out for the weekend due to low freezing levels. Coho salmon season is…
Outlook It sure feels like winter here in Vancouver! Cold, clear days have the rivers dropping like a rock giving some awesome late season salmon fishing opportunities.
