    I can't wax as poetically as Ribwart, Fishortho and others so foregive me (and my lack of spell check). Out Saturday A.M. the concert beacons (headlamps and flashlights lifted and lighted the trail), marking the meat/honey holes; no fires so I guess the camping was at a minimum. Worked my way...

    My step father is comming out next weekend and asked if I would take him out for a day of sockeye fishing. He is from manitoba . If he is practicing catch and release and is not keeping any fish, does he need a salmon tag? Does he need a salmon tag or just a 1 day license?we will be fishing the...

    Just wanted to mention that the number one way to kill a Steelhead due to catch and release is to catch them over and over in warm flows such as those being experienced right now, in the Fraser Valley. Just becuase a fishery is open does not make it a well planned fishery. Sometimes leaving...

    Hello fellas, Last year I caught and released a few skates as I don't know how to clean them. This year I'm going fishing to the same place, and will probably catch more skates. Could someone give me any hints how to clean them? Thx.
