Fly Fishing British Columbia : Day 5 Skeena - Excalibur Awakens! (30-08-23) 4K

There are some days when it just all goes right. The new setup I bought the night before came REALLY good. Two fabulous fresh run Coho salmon 12lb & 13lb and casting like I never have with a double handed rod.

[@johnp4hc]

That was a great day. It felt like it finally all came together.
I ended up with 20+ fish for the 7 days I fished which I’m really happy with.

is there many steelhead around the tributaries of the skeena

[@johnp4hc]

We couldn’t fish them as our guides didn’t have the licences.

[@davidhumphrey1819]

A lesson learnt make sure the lodge has access to the classified waters or you will end up fishing the towns water all the time

[@johnwallace5098]

that is unfortunate @@johnp4hc

[@johnwallace5098]

@@davidhumphrey1819 i here that river gets a handful of steelhead

[@johnp4hc]

@@johnwallace5098 If only we’d been told that BEFORE we paid up front for the trip.
We assumed that because it was organised by a “reputable” UK guide that we’d be fishing in the “wilderness”.

[@sdufg]

why did they check your id?

[@johnp4hc]

They have to check your identity against the licence to prove you are who you say you are.

You should have been up one of tributary Rivers for Monster Steelhead, that guide ? Bulkley River steelhead hit 30lb, prime time late Step/oct and the other tribes are also WICKED!!! don't bothar fishing for stupid coho there crap.
