Re: The Fishing Thread

Moosehead, I fished the Fraser in 2008 and 2011 and caught some amazing sturgeon and salmon. The Sturgeon look and feel like no other fish I have ever caught. We had to land on a gravel bar to return the six footer. Outstanding places around Veddar, Harrison, Stave Chehalis. Hopefully return someday.
