Fishing Report for October 2, 2009

Lots of coho. The river has seen over 35000 through Stamp Falls counters to date and as of October 2nd the limits go from 2 to 4 either hatchery or wild. Great opportunities are here for some great fall fishing. Due to lower numbers of chinook it is now non-retention for them. We are still permitted to fish bait from the bucket down and will help to entice the numbers of coho along with steelhead.

It has been an excellent fall fishing season and will continue till we turn the corner to key in on summer steelhead. We currently have the boats in the lower somass-stamp and will be moving a boat to the upper stamp very shortly. You won't want to miss out on the fantastic scenery and fishing that will be happening throughout the month. We also will be doing trips to the Nitinat starting October 15th when it is open for coho. If you haven't planned a trip or are thinking about it don't hesitate to call. We can be reached by e-mail or phone and will return calls after 4:00 pm daily.
