September Storms

The rain and wind have finnally died down.Anglers Hunters and Outdoors enthusiast have told a few stories.
Fishing
Salmon fishing very steady at the backside of Harwood for feeder Chinooks.Most fish are beetween 7-12 lbs,set your rigger at 150' and you will catch fish. 3 1/2 inch PRO Wonderstripe Coyote spoon and the Black Magic Hooche will take care of business.
If its trout your after simply go to your favourite lake at this time of year and you will get action.Powell,Inland,Lois,Cranberry are just a few to put on your list.Pro flies and Crocs are a must cast away.
Hunters
Mainland Deer that have been taken have been mostly spikes and a couple two points.2010 is looking much better than last year with many deer showing up.Oct tenth the L.E.H Elk season will kick off so watch for some great stories.
Lang Creek
Still Coho and Chinook showing up with hundreds of Salmon in the Hatchery,with many Chinooks in the Thirtys and Even some over 50 lbs,the one that got away. Sam Out...
