cheakamus river

Has anyone tried for chrome chums up at the Cheakamus this october? Last year my dad and I caught a few up 15 and 20 pounders chrome. We have not been up this year yet. Seen a chrome or two in the coquitlam river though.

They are just starting to show now so numbers will be low, I have been up there and had killer days.

Chums and Big Coho, I bet the Cheakamus is blewn out right now with all the rain we have had!!!

I will be going up there soon, I love Chum on the center pin!

Plus I need Chum for the smoker for over Xmas

Might see you up there BCjr

I hear ya, my family and I love the smoked chum over xmas break. I hope too get up there sooner or later, was going to go this weekend but dad is hunting any buck up north. We are considering going later on. Older dogs are also alright for crab bait, and the fights are very good.

What do you use to catch the Coho?

Normally with a fishing rod, a reel with line and barbless hooks. If your native a net will do.

For Coho I'd use fresh roe, chum roe works the best. If bait isn;t allowed or you don't have fresh guts, a colorado blade under a float works great.

For Chums, use a maribou jig in orange or chartreuse suspended under a float. Chums hammer jigs.

For chums make sure you use pink/green/white yarn, it works very well!

So I guess CIL (dynamite) is frowned on??? since you didn't mention it
Thanks guys.
