Author Name: John Szymanski

Tip&Trick Description 1:
Simple Stowage of StrikeBack Fishing Lure Retriever for more deck Space.
Most pole type lure retrievers are thick, bulky and rigid. StrikeBack is made of 1.5 metre fibreglass rods able to be connected together, each 8 or 10 mm in diameter, depending on the version.
Once you have your StrikeBack Fishing Lure Retriever at the boat; loctite the first two sections and slide the retriever in the gunwale rail on many aluminium boats, or attach a length of conduit along the inside of the boat. Your StrikeBack Fishing Lure Retriever is now stowed neatly as it has flexiblity to fit the contour of your the hull. Deck space is valuable, keep it clear. |

Weekly Fishing Reports (Smithers, Terrace, Kitimat, Prince Rupert and Meziadin North)
Noel Gyger
April 3 to April 10, 2011
Dear Fishing Friends:
SUMMARY: Weather was fair all week. Lots of sun shine, some rain and warm day time temperatures. Guided Fishing started on March 15th on the Kalum River.
The Skeena River is in good shape. The ice and snow are melting fast. This river usually has a very good run of spring Steelhead. So get out there and try your luck. The Trout and Dolly Varden Char are available year round. The Kalum River is in good shape and fishing for Steelhead is excellent.
The Zymoetz (Copper) River is in good shape and fishing for Steelhead is fair. The ice flows are gone. The upper section closed for fishing on January 1st.
The Lakelse River is in good shape and fishing for Steelhead and Trout is fair.
Kitimat River; Mother Nature played an April Fool's Day trick on the people of Kitimat April 4th when we woke up to snow covered lawns. We thought we were finished with the harsh winter conditions. The snow was only a light dusting and a little rain and the afternoon sun soon transformed things back to normal. Steelhead Season on the Kitimat is progressing nicely with anglers very happy to report their Daily catch although reluctant to reveal much. Steelheaders are a bit different breed. I think due to the nature of the fishery.
Douglas Channel; I spoke to Richard from MK Bay today and he had very little to report mid week. As the snow continues to melt to allow more boaters to get their boats out of winter storage, activity on the Douglas Channel will increase. The weekend should produce more activity. See Important Halibut Information below.
Prince Rupert; sorry, no report from Prince Rupert this week.
If you would like to book a comfortable, warm Charter Boat for Winter Chinook and Dungeness Crab in Kitimat or Prince Rupert please contact me noel@noelgyger.ca anytime.
River Reports
Kalum River Is in good shape both upper and lower end and fishing for Steelhead and Trout is excellent. Both spin and fly is working well.
Lakelse River Is in fair shape and fishing for Steelhead is fair. Trout fishing is starting to turn on.
Skeena River Steelhead and Trout can be caught at some locations. There will be a spring run of Steelhead starting now.
Gitnadoix River This beautiful Skeena tributary usually has a very good run of spring Steelhead. This river is located in a Provincial Park. It is a very rough, rocky river in the lower end and jet boating can be dangerous. Please be careful.
Zymoetz (Copper) River The water is in good shape to fish right now. Fishing for Steelhead is fair. Reminder: No fishing above the sign at the transmission line crossing (below) Zymoetz Canyon Jan 1 – June 15. You can still fish below the sign all winter.
Zymagotitz (Zymacord) River The water is in fair shape and access has improved with the melting snow. Fishing for Cutthroat Trout and Dolly Varden. Char is good. This river has some big Bull Trout and a fair run of Steelhead.

Kitimat River Mother Nature played an April Fool's Day trick on the people of Kitimat April 4th when we woke up to snow covered lawns. We thought we were finished with the harsh winter conditions. The snow was only a light dusting and a little rain and the afternoon sun soon transformed things back to normal. Steelhead Season on the Kitimat is progressing nicely with anglers very happy to report their Daily catch although reluctant to reveal much. Steelheaders are a bit different breed. I think due to the nature of the fishery.
April 6 Chris Matos reports catching an 18lb Steelhead on the Kitimat River.
Douglas Channel April 4 Three Generations of the Lafferty family are holding up King Crab. Wow! Rob Lafferty and his father, Pat and son (sorry I didn't have the son's name for this report) are holding up their bounty for a unique family moment. Congratulations to the Lafferty family!
I spoke to Richard from MK Bay today and he had very little to report mid week. As the snow continues to melt to allow more boaters to get their boats out of winter storage, activity on the Douglas Channel will increase. The weekend should produce more activity.
We are booking for the 2011 Season: Anyone interested in Jet boat trips, Saltwater trips or River Drift boat trips please contact Noel noel@noelgyger.ca
Good Health and Good Fishing!
