** Also just checked weather network and they are forecasting another 30-40 mm of rain between now and tomorrow night, just something to think about before heading out this weekend. :cheers: I will take pics tonight and tomorrow if I go out and will post them.eace:

Were you out today? When I was there yesterday at 7 it was way up with only 2 feet of visibility at MOST. We also got a lot of rain overnight and it is still raining in the Wack so I would say that it is probably even worse right now. Might clear up for this weekend, good luck.eddy said:

Re: Vedder water conditions
Dont even bother... they wont pick up scents or vibrations in the water right now :wallbash: River completely blown, 0 vis, and up a good at least 1, probably 2 feet since last night. We also got the biggest downpour of rain ever for like 40 mins, so much that the drains in sardis are pushing water back out because there is too much :wallbash: It's like a novmeber blow out, might be going to take pics tonight, not sure yet :cheers:

LOL, lazy typer,
Actually live in Burnaby.
Hhmmm sounds like this coming Monday might not be a good day to fish the Vedder, but will wait and see how the river shapes up this Sunday.
Itching for some fishing, as only been fishing twice this year (Sturgeon fishing).

Re: Vedder water conditions
Thats cause the fish dont need to see your bait for them to "bite" it :-X ;D ;DHOOK said:when the fishing is just starting to pick up I dont bother driving all that way. when i can stay at home and do something else. however if this was 2weeks from now, you know my a** would be out there.

Based on the photos that “Every Day” was kind enough to post yesterday I went out this morning. Launched my 10 foot boat at Barrow Town and scoped out the Sumas River from the canal down. Only two pike minnow to show for it – but they were kind of fun on my 5 wt.
The river was definitely up but very fishable until I left at noon. There was colour to the water but it was still good for fly fishing. The amount of wood and other debris coming downstream increased significantly during the 4 hours I was out so it seems the river is rising and more colour can also be expected.
No sign of coho at all.

Re: Vedder water conditions
Well I decided to go for a look at around 6:45. River was exactly what I thought it would be.. high and muddy. I went to the crossing to try to get a pic of where the sweltzer creek met the river (contrast between clear and muddy water) but to my surprise even sweltzer was completely blown (I have never seent hat before). I did take a few pics, they dont do too much for what it really looks like, the water is a lot browner than in the pics. Use the rock in the water for visibility.
