Well, I got more news about a fresh run of fish coming. My sis-in-law is a welder on the docks, in Vancouver, and she mentioned today that as far out as she could see, out in the chuck, there were fish surfacing, finning, jumping, and boiling everywhere. She said she saw several fish in the air at once. Some were poking their snouts above the surface, and many were clearing out of the water and landing on their bellies. She also said that the same fish would jump repeatedly. Some even boiled and just stirred the surface! From how she explained it, sounds like most were coho and chum...I'm assuming. She said that some fish reminded her of pinks, just the way they were jumping. But that's unlikely. She used to work on a commercial salmon vessel, so I know she's pretty accurate.
The location was near the Second Narrows Bridge, near Port Moody. I'm not familiar with that area, so I'm not sure where those fish were heading, but it's exciting! I do know that many times, salmon hang around a bay for awhile, before they carry on, so maybe they're Fraser fish, eh?
Anyways, as before, I just thought it would be info worth sharing.
