Thanks

No barnacles in Steveston been there a lot of years or LadnerI think theres maybe to much silt for them to survive .As far as saltwater on a flood tide in Ladner Im fairly sure theres maybe 20% salt and depends on the time of year thats also the Reason I left my boats in Ladner no barnacles on the bottom

The salt water apperently forms a wedge under the fresh water for a ways up river as the tide floods. As salt water is denser, the fresh water floats on it and it would be unlikely there would be much if any salt in the surface water. Just what I've heard....

I launch out of Ladner regularly and have spent a lot of time hunting out there. I never noticed any toll on my boat or trailer from the salt in the river. But you do need to oil your shotgun down after each use in the marsh around ladner. To much fresh water around ladner for Barnacles but definetly big tide swings.

Not to change the topic but i heard the chinese are catching herring in Steveston of the beach?

Heard that too about 3 weeks ago.MMmmmm wondering if herring is the new sturgeon bait?[]

 

[leaseman]

Thanks for that thought Derby!.......[}]

That is all I need to have to add some other bait to the freezer!

I think we all should have a couple different types of baits in our freezer.[]I did fish herring & anchovy's in the lower Fraser a number of years ago for sturgeon without any or very little success. Pretty tough to beat a good quality Hooligan
