Fish Report for 9-1-2013

A lot of fish may be spawning early this year on the Squamish

The Squamish systems are still fishing well for pinks. Expect to see a lot more colored up fish this time of year as they have begun to spawn in many places. That being said, the lower river should continue to crank out some relatively fresh fish for the next week or two. This rain is sure to bring the river levels up and degrade the water clarity. Changing to larger presentations in dirty water will increase your success rate. Fly fishing and float fishing are the most effective methods. Larger pink flies like #8-6 pink wooley buggers and cerise clouser minnows are good choices in the dirtier water. Gear anglers will find pink tinted spinners, marabou jigs, spin'n glos, and wool ties to be effective. You are required to release all trout and char. Get out there and be mindful of the fish and your fellow anglers.
