Rivers Inlet

[sheephnter]

Just fished Rivers Inlet for past two weeks- if anyone tells you there was a good run there this year- they are full of BS.

Yes we caught a few nice ones in 40's and a couple 50's- but overall the "fleet" didn't do wortha damn-

Run is LATE???? that will be what they say next

I have never fished rivers inlet, and do not know the normal run size. But with a couple fish in the 40 and 50 pound range each, how much more were you hoping for? That sounds like a pretty good haul to me.
Perhaps you were hoping for a greater number of smaller fish to fill the freezer?
I am just curious,
thanks

I guess I didnt say that very well- the lodge "fleet" (when I said WE- I meant the lodge group)caught a couple in 40's and a couple in 50's- what I mant to say was that we stayed for two trips total length and of the 22 fisherman- THAT is al that was caught- last week of the 22 fisherman only THREE chinook were caught at the head- thats THREE chinook TOTAL- and was supposed to be primetime!

So just a question a couple and a couple make 4 doesnt it????????

Ok lets se if i can make this more clear:

Two lodge groups of 22 fisherman each- TWO TRIPS TOTAL overall catch- of "large fish"-- was 2 in 40's and 2 in 50's- the SECOND group caught 3 chinook (only) total- OVERALL, for the two trips or 44 fisherman caught ONLY 4 largeer size fish- a few in 30's and 20's were caught by first group- but not many mind you- and of the second group of 22 ONLY THREE FISH TOTAL WERE CAUGHT- dismal results- no matter how ya count

bottom line is: People go to Rivers inlet to try and ctach LARGE fish- not a LOT of fish- they ain't there this year- and bililogist last year said that 2005 wud be a great return to that area based upon escapement numbers 4-5 years previous.

sorry Wolf- guess I didn't say it well, but what I am saying is IF you DIDN'T fish at Rivers Inlet the last month to cath the BIG ONE- you DIDN'T miss much.

heading to Kano Inlet tomorrow

tight lines

Not a problem man LOL
thats very odd because i am just below you at the beginning of knights inlet and it has been a great year so far since june the lodge has been getting limits nothing huge but great numbers i think the biggest is a 45 but who cares as long as your getting fish!!!!!!

Good luck Wolf
