Steelheading in British Columbia for 18 days?

[Bill Kiene semi-retired]

We just had one of our buddies in yesterday getting a few things who is headed to BC for 18 days of fishing!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I think he has done this before so he fishes on his own with a friend and then they hire guides once and a while too.

Some lucky fly fishers go to BC annually for decades. Some do it their selves and others go to lodges.

I think October is a great month up there too.

My brothers, sister in law, and I just returned from northern BC yesterday. Great trip, hit the weather and water conditions just right. Light showers two of the eight days we were up there. Fishing pretty good. Not as many fish as last year (accordidng to the guides and talking with other fisherman/women, but big ones were caught. We landed four at 37 inches or bigger. Largest 41 by 21 (+/- 25 pounds). Have to say that was mine and all I can say is WOW. Other large fish were lost too. Fished 4 different rivers. It was a great trip that went way too fast. Back to realtiy, bummer.
