Noel Gyger - WEEKLY FISHING REPORT dated May 24 – May 31, 2009
Dear Fishing Friends:
SUMMARY: The weather has been a mixed bag but daytime temperatures are getting warmer. The lower section of the Kalum River is very high but in good shape. Chinook are in the river and the Steelhead are spawning. The mainstem Skeena River is too dirty and not fishable. A good place to fish is at the clean seams where the tributary rivers flow into the Skeena, i.e. Extew, Kasiks and Exchamsiks. The Zymoetz (Copper) River is too dirty to fish. The Chinook are coming into the Kitimat River now. For the Kitimat River and Douglas Channel please check out the detailed Ron Wakita report below.
Correction: Last week I reported, “Due to better ocean conditions, DFO predicts a strong run of Sockeye Salmon in the Skeena River of 10 million fish this year. Historical highs are 13 million fish.” My information source was not correct. According to Mark Reagan, DFO Resource Manager, Recreational fisheries, Prince Rupert BC says, “The Skeena sockeye return is forecast to be 2 million rather than 10 million and I don\\\'t believe we\\\'ve ever had a run of 13 million”.
