Best Salmon fly fishing in the World

Squamish BC fishing reports Chum and Coho Salmon fly fishing. Enjoy fly fishing the Squamish River, Cheakamus River and Mamquam River in Squamish British Columbia. Both the Chum and Coho Salmon fishing season has just started in Squamish, BC and the fishing has been fantastic. In past years I have not seen the numbers of Salmon this strong, this early in the season. Although there is lots of Coho Salmon in the Rivers surrounding Squamish, expect to catch 10 – 1 Chum Salmon to every Coho. There are not too many fish in the World that put up a fight quite like a Chum Salmon. You can definitely tell the difference between a strike from a Coho Salmon to that of a Chum Salmon. Typically a Coho Salmon strike is very sharp, while a Chum Salmon strike is a lot softer and a bit sluggish. Both Salmon fight similar, I would give the edge to a Chum Salmon because of their shear size and power. Expect to be in an epic battle for nearly 20 minutes each and every Salmon while fly fishing.

I was born and raised in Pemberton, British Columbia. As a young boy, the small town of Pemberton didn't offer the youth many things other than great fishing. So every waking moment I would be seen fishing the local rivers and lakes on a daily basis. In 1976 My Father "Ivan Knowles" opened Spud Valley Sporting Goods Ltd, and how fitting he had his two boys running the shop who were both very avid in hunting, camping and most of all ... fishing. Everyday people from all over the World would come in and get the local scoop, buy their gear and be off to catch fish. Later on My local knowledge and ability to help people catch fish would come in handy. Soon I ventured away from the family business to work as a angling guide for 5 years. In those 5 years I stared in my own fishing show called ELITE FISHING which was seen by 100,000 people a week on Whistler Cable. I have made a name for myself as the man to see if you want to catch fish. Now back working at Spud Valley Sporting Goods Ltd, "The Family Business", I love working with my brother Sheridan and father Ivan. Also a proud member of the fisheries committee for Pemberton Wildlife Association - helping make local decisions on local fisheries. I have a passion for fishing and seeing other people catch fish and this shows with my New Business venture The Pemberton Fish Finder, Visit my website for the Best fishing Tours and Fishing Reports for Whistler, Squamish, Vancouver, Lillooet and Pemberton BC, Canada.
