Outlook: We are hitting full stride for fall salmon fishing in the local rivers. Fish are continuing to enter their home stretch and the stories we hear at the shop each day is that tight lines are in abundance. The Vancouver weather forecast and the Nicola Valley/Merritt weather forecasts are both steady and should contribute…
Outlook: So it seems that in 2013 that October and September have decided to swap places regarding our fall weather patterns!

The local saltwater fishing definitely did not benefit…

With rain then sun we will see some fish push up in the rivers while others will begin to stage off the…
Outlook: Break out the water-wings this weekend. From Vancouver to Squamish, there is a full rainfall warning in effect for this weekend. The EXCITING aspect of this forecast is this will bring fresh fish into their home river systems but it will also blow out many of the systems making the fishing conditions tough and…
Outlook: Welcome to a wet start to Sept! This year, there was no doubt about the end of summer. Even late yesterday afternoon the rolling thunder following the frequent lightening we could see outside the store was a reminder of what we have enjoyed AND what is coming. That being said, fishing has been AMAZING. …

Outlook: Welcome to your October thunder and lightening storms – in August? This rain is definitely going to get the river fishing going early. Without a doubt there will be coho moving into the Capilano, and Chilliwack River today with the big storm we had last night. The massive biomass of pinks, in the millions,…
Outlook: July broke a 60yr record as it recorded ZERO precipitation in the entire month. Now we have clouds and 30% chance of rain over the next couple days. The pink salmon run continues to come in waves and should be a fairly significant sized run this season so fishing in Howe Sound, The Fraser…

Outlook: Hot and steamy. This weather has been amazing, its why Vancouver is one of the most beautiful cities in the world AND it keeps the fish stacked up off W. Van. The weather does not look like it will let up either. There is nothing drastic in the marine forecast either with 10-15knot NW…
Outlook: Weather continues to be amazing here in Vancouver. JT and I were talking this morning as I drove him to the airport to fly up to the DEAN (not jealous at all) and we can’t remember the last time a July was this perfect for summer! The store is LOADED with new gear for…
