Fishing with Rod: Millions of sockeye salmon

For more videos, please visit: http://www.fishingwithrod.com

The sockeye salmon run is coming to an end soon but there is still no shortage of fish flooding into the Fraser River during incoming tides. If you have the chance, head down to the Fraser River mouth and watch thousands of sockeye salmon leaping on the surface in the next couple of weeks.

Rod, why are the fish jumping? Maybe a dumb question but I am curious.

Thanks.

[fishingwithrod]

@bowriverblog Perhaps to avoid predators or rid the sea lice on their body. I don't think anyone truly knows as most are just speculations.

is there no fly fishing up-river?

[fishingwithrod]

@gunnihel Fly fishing opportunities are available anywhere along the Fraser River. In the tidal portion, the water is slow enough for you to cast out and strip with fish striking it at times. In the sections further upstream, most fish are caught by flossing and the atmosphere is not ideal for fly fishing. The lower stretch of the Harrison River where it enters the Fraser River can be great for fly fishing as the water is slow and clear enough to get an actual bite.

We've been Fishing The South Arm of The Fraser River. Amazing! We are amateur but still we got 9 soxs.

@fishingwithrod - if I where a salmon I would jumps as high as I could.

@bowriverblog Thanks Rod, I love to see the fish dance like that. Sounds like many fish are coming back to their spawning grounds. I love to see the fishery alive and kicking. Thanks for sharing your passion with other fishermen like me. Cheers, Mike.
