Weekend fishing Forcast:

Sunny with  highs to -5 degrees Celsius. Skeena River is low and and in good shape BUT mostly forze over. Steelhead are being caught where you can find open accessable water :-)  Please be careful running your jet boat as water is very shallow and be carefull waking on the ice. Coho fishing closed October 31st. Tyee Test Fishery showed a record run of Steelhead this seasonCoho run was way down this year. Kalum River is in fair shape and fishing well for Steelhead. Both fly and spin fishing are working well. Kitimat River is closed to Salmon fishing and is just about all frozen over. Zymoetz (Copper) River is in good shape (mostly frozen over) and Steelhead are being caught in open water. Note this reg: No Fishing upstream of the sign at the transmission line crossing (downstream of Zymoetz Canyon) Jan 1 - June 15. Steelhead fishing below this closure is still permitted.
