This Excellent Winter Run Steelhead landed using a single hander..Snowbee XS-P

Showing here a Snap "Z"..note the comfortable body position

   Mystic Switch Rod caught Steelhead..what a sweet fish

 

 Beach Coho Season is over,sadly
the returns this year were excellent,infact there is a retention of 4 Coho in the Big Qualicum River ...2 over a slot limit,both must be hatchery and 2 under slot size either..
The real issue we have to swallow is that there has been a Chum Salmon Screw up with DFO again and for the past 4 days they have been cleaning up Chum Off the Qualicum BEach area by the Millions...likely nearing 3 million netted buy BC's Gillnet fleet..a shame for total mismanagement again.



Fly Fishing.......purifies senses!

River fly fishing  can be hot ...Large Coho, Chum Salmon...AND TROUT!

Landed using his new Vision #8 Switch and Hardy UltraliteDD Reel...sweet set-up
