Here are a couple of Joe’s first Steelhead from the Stamp River. He made his first trip to the Stamp this year and spent a day with guide Matt Guiguet. Joe and his friend landed 3 nice steelies, while drifting single eggs and wool. They hooked in to 12 on their trip and Matt was extremely helpful with teaching them the basics. Joe is now looking forward to the rest of his season on our local waters. Nicely done Joe! Keep at it and send us the pics.

Mike was fishing at Watch Lake in late May 09 when this big boy took his fly. He was up there with the Arch Bishop Carney Fly Fishing Club staying at Fawn Lake. Fishing was slow at fawn (chironimid wise), so Watch was recommended by a local. Although Michael’s fish was the biggest of the day, fish were being consistantlycaught in the 14-18 inch range on chironimids. Michael’s fish weighed in at 6.5 lbs, 26.5 inches.

Shop hand Cody Sojka With Vedder Steelhead 07

rsfat — Tue, 14 Apr 2009 01:30:23 +0000

The Young shop hand Cody Sojka with just one of his many Steelhead that year. It’s funny how many people will diregard Cody’s sage advice on Salmon fishing because of his age, when truth be known he has fished more times in his short years than guys three times his age. Cody can produce fish on most lower mainland rivers when other “experienced” anglers can’t and he leaves people wondering ‘what is he doing?’ or saying , ‘Beginners luck’. Little do they know.

Harrison’s 1st Steelhead

rsfat — Thu, 09 Apr 2009 16:00:34 +0000

Harrison Wry with his first Vedder River steelhead. It was taken on his new centerpin rod and reel, Harrison was fishing that day with his dad Hollis and was polite enough not to rub in the fact the he caught the only fish that day, so we’ll do it for him. Good job Harrison!
