Good afternoon fellow Fish Hawkers, it's been awhile since I've posted so I thought I'd drop a short note to let you know that the salmon are now moving in. Here's a few pics. Caught flat lining with J-13 Rap Orange and gold. More to follow.
Yes, these guys are just minutes from the house...

Man!!! I had the chance last summer to move to Terrace BC. It was a job opp, and I turned it down. I should have accepted it. This post has brought back the memory.
You are a lucky man Mr. The Nipigon!

I'm planning to spend a couple of days in the back lakes next week...if I catch a decent trout, I'll post a pic
Thanks, the rain has been regular, the inland lakes are a bit low still. It has been warm. The brookies or Bows will be holding deep or around spring run offs. Look forward to the pics. Remember any size trout hooked and landed is a good trout and a good day worth a pic.
Good luck...

Nice lookin' fish!! The first pic -- is that just a few hundred yards downstream of the launch @ Alexander Dam? I was there with my dad about 3 weeks ago and we got skunked (which rarely happens to my dad on the Nipigon River). We figured they maybe hadn't run up that far yet. The water was so shallow that we could not get the tinny past the shoal near the orange Boat Busters, to get into the big back eddy where most of our success comes.

Ya I caught those guy down by the rock island. Was out this evening and wasn't even marking any thing on the sonar...Guess we'll have try in the morning. Did you run up the river from your dad's camp? (Polly)
