Went up to tacheeda lake with my gf to meet up with my family for my birthday. After awhile the two of us decided to head over to the parsnip to see if we could catch a couple bullys, sure enough the gf hooks into this monster with my little trout rod and starts to freak out as it's just tearing line out, calls me over to take the rod so I do and manage to land it!

Quick update from the field: We've caught several grayling (about 25) in the Anzac after just a few days dedicated to angling for tagging. Bull trout have been hard to find/catch but we have a couple tagged there as well... We also tagged about 10 grayling and 2 bull trout in the Table. Please do let us know if you catch one of the tagged fish -- we kindly ask you to provide us with the tag number, date/time and location of capture. Thanks!

If you're fishing around the lower Anzac bridge, you may notice some white sand bags underwater and downstream of the bridge. These bags are anchoring our equipment that monitors the presence of tagged grayling and bull trout. We kindly ask you not to move them. Thanks!

Thank you for joining our project! We're starting to tag Arctic grayling and bull trout at the end of July. Please keep your eyes open for fish with an external tag.

Fishing has been notably slower this summer on stretches of river near the HWY 97 Bridge. Bull trout have been favouring natural coloured streamers and jigs that imitate Sculpin, Skein, or other coarse fish. Brightly coloured “coho jigs” and silvery spoons have proven successful in larger pools and runs where water is moving fast. Calmer runs of water have been host to many smaller boils and jumps that provide a good opportunity to the proficient fly caster in low water conditions. Casts of over 75’ are desirable to place flies no greater than size 14. For Whitefish and Grayling. As with every summer, more trash and treble-hooked lures are washing up on shore. Bull Trout in this system are predatory and aggressive so there is no need for anything more than a large single barbless hook.
