has anybody caught a real nice chrome chum on the chehalis , its just one thing on my mind i cant stop thinking ,ive caught a couple with a little bit of silver,its just cause last october my friend said he was ready to kill another coho until he put the fish into the sun and you can barely see the bars i just cant believe that so i need to know here

the hatchery guys there say every year theyll always get a couple nice chum , but never chrome chrome

i dont mean to start anything, but your buddy was ready to kill a fish he thought was a coho but was really a chum? and would it have not had an adipose fin?

A buddy of mine caught a nice chum on that flow, clean the fish and it had singles ??? This fish was by no means dirty at all, had very faint purple bars on it and thats all.

Over the years some of the cleanest chums i have seen have come from the chehalis,the other system that has very clean chums is the squamish.

Beauty fish and what a surprise for that time of year,i have seen some clean ones on the vedder over the years but very few that were that chrome.

Ive gotten chrome chum on the stave. Yes I know amazing LOL but if timed right they can be found on any river that has a run in it. FF's chum is probably the latest chum on the vedder that Ive ever seen in that good of condition.

 

[mr.bare]

finally when someone's got proof , i cant see the the fish because im only half way there in posts to view the fishing reports section.but if you guys say youve seen them that far out from the salt i guess i gotta beleive my bud. like squamish is only a few kms from the salt so its easy to find but i mean vedder/chehalis thats 100-130kms away from the mouth so to see one thats rare just gotta wait to see that pic.

kingpin im not a meat harvester but when i hit the flow im always "ready to kill"

I have never caught a chum in the chehalis that I would call "clean". I have caught a couple of clean ones on the vedder during times when we get a fresh dump of rain and some fresh fish move through (all of them were does). I generally do not target them in the fraser valley. The squish though is another story.

I've caught clean chum from Coquitlam to Dewdney. Timming is everything and females hold their crome longer. Metal has always worked for me
