SUMMARY: Weather had been good until we were hit with heavy rain on Saturday. Fishing for Chinook (King) Salmon, Cutthroat Trout, Bull Trout and Dolly Varden Char using both fly, spin and conventional gear has been good. The Skeena River has been rising all week and is not fishable.  It's time again to fish the clean seams that flow in from the cleaner tributaries. The Zymoetz (Copper) River is too dirty to fish.  The Kalum River is high and in good shape and fishing for Chinook (King) Salmon is fair.  The Kitimat River has stayed high all week but still fishable on most days but blew-out on Saturday, the day I chose to fish.  Chinook are coming in good numbers.  Fishing the outer waters for Chinook and Halibut is good.  The main run of Chinook are coming into the river now. Fishing in the bay is good.  Crab (Dungeness and King) fishing is excellent.  Check out the Ron Wakita report below.  Ocean Chinook fishing in Prince Rupert is good.  Fishing for Halibut is good and so is trapping Crabs and Prawns.  Check out the Jeff Carlson report below.  Jason Munday in Terrace reports anglers are wishing the Skeena River would clean up so they can get out and fish for the big Chinook. Check out Jason Munday's report below. Marvin Reid from Mezidian North reports lake fishing is good.  Check out Marvin's report below. For Sale:  Drift Boat For Sale, Waterfront properties and Wanted to Buy property are posted near the bottom of this report.  Check them out!  Contact me anytime to post your FOR SALE river or ocean front property.   Retirement folks from around the world are looking for this type of investment where they can fish the rest of their lives and still be close to home!  There is NO charge for a  posting.  My FISHING   REPORT AND WEBSITE has world wide reach.

FISHING THIS WEEK:  GOOD  

 These Scotty Orca Rod Holders are the “best”! I used them for the first time on June 12th. After a few minutes of practice of putting the rod into the holder and pulling it out to set the hook, changed my life.  I was truly impressed. Every angler needs this rod holder. Trust me, I know. I started years ago with plastic pipe rod holders, wire rod holders, tube rod holders, and the standard ones today…but this one…is by far, the best I have ever used.

Lots of them and big ones, including a 62lber. A whole bunch of Chinook came into the Kitimat River during the latter part of this week.  Chinook were caught at the Lower Dike, the Eurocan Pump House and the lower Kitimat River and the middle section of the Kitimat River.  Driftboaters are doing exceptionally well. 

   June 6  Joe Botz weighed in a 26lb dressed Chinook on our Tackle Store scale on Sunday.  Joe was bar fishing at the Big Spruce and was using a #0 Metallic Green Yakama Spin N Glo comboed with a pink Gibbs Delta Drifter. The photo of this Chinook was taken with Marc O'Brien. Congratulations Joe.  June 6 Kurt was in our Tackle store and reported catching a 19lb Chinook on a Gibbs Koho 65 Blue Scale spoon. This was his first Chinook of the year.  Well done Kurt!  The first Chinook

always gets the fishing juices inside stirred up.  Usually the first Chinook fuels the urge to go fishing every day.   June 7 Dr.Tom Baumeister caught his first Chinook of the Chinook season on the upper Kitimat River.  Tom landed his Chinook right at dark on a Gibbs spoon.  Tom said "There were a few jumping and I was determined to get one".  Mission accomplished!  In the fishing world, perseverance is a large component of success.  Tom also commented that he was going to try to catch the next Chinook on his Fly Rod.  Congratulations Tom and Good luck on the fly. 

 June 10 Chris Matos weighed in a dressed 28lb Chinook in our Instore Derby.  Wow nice Chinook!  He also reported to catch a "Bright" Kitimat River Steelhead and provided a photo to verify his description of "Bright". Wow again, that is a very Bright Steelhead especially for this time of year.  Chris reports catching both the Chinook and Steelhead on a Gibbs Koho 55 Gold with orange stripe.  Congratulations Chris! 

 June 10 Manny Arruda and his favorite brother -in -law Shane Flagel landed a 25lb Chinook drifting the Kitimat River.  Manny and Shane were drifting in Manny's new Clackacraft Driftboat.  Manny was also using his new Loomis Hot Shot rods HSR1025c.  I believe this was the 3rd Chinook that Manny has hooked so far this season.  Manny is having a great start to the Kitimat River Chinook season.  There is a lot to be said about using the "Right Tools for the Job!". Well done Manny and Congratulations Shane!  

 June 11 Mike Herzberg an Associate Guide for Reliable Guide and Charters was doing a pre-client trip with his fishing partner Alvaro.  Mike and Alvaro hooked 6 Chinook and landed 3, a 30lb, 24lb and an 11 lb.  Wow!  What a great day of Chinook fishing, especially this early in the season.  Mike and Alvaro caught all these Chinook on Luhr Jensen's Kwik Fish.  Mike is our Top Guide and takes pride in producing Chinook for our clients and his friends.  Anyone interested in booking a trip with Mike please contact Noel noel@noelgyger.ca.

 June 11 Linda Riley proudly weighed in a 36lb Chinook in our Instore Derby.  Linda was fishing the Lower Dike using a jig tied by Dave Berguron.  Linda is a very experienced angler who brings excellent credentials to the female fraternity of anglers.  You Go Girl!  Congratulations Linda!  Well done!  

 June 11 Jesse Houston, Hanna McRea and Dustin Edwardsen drifted the Lower Kitimat River and hooked 4 Chinook and landed 3.  They landed a 15lb, 20lb and a 33lb Chinook all on Luhr Jensen Kwikfish.  Jesse is a previous staff member of our Tackle Store, City Centre Hardware and Sporting Goods.   Jesse is also considering joining our Guiding Company.  After these

impressive results, it would be great to have him onboard the Reliable Guide and Charters Guiding Team. 

 June 12 Mike Herzberg hooked 6 Chinook and landed a 19lb Chrome Chinook.  Mike was fishing by himself and judging by the "hooked to landed ratio" he had a little trouble landing these early fresh Kitimat River Chinook.  Mike is a gifted angler but these Chinook are fresh and brutes to land.  Congratulations Mike on a great morning of fishing the Kitimat River.  Next time you are fishing alone please phone me and I will gladly come with you to help you land some of these fish:-) 

  Photo of the Week June 12 Jesse and his father Kelly Houston and Dustin Edwardsen landed a 62lb Chinook on the Kitimat River Hot Shotting with a Luhr Jensen Kwik Fish.  Jesse was using a Loomis HSR1025 Hot Shot Rod and Ambassadeur 7000C3 loaded with 25lb. Trilene Big Game line.  Jesse reports that, "we had to chase it down the river and fought it for 45 minutes"! WOW! Congratulations Guys!   Well done!  What a great way to start off your Kitimat River Chinook season! Oh yah, they caught another one that was 35lbs. 

 June 12 James Botrokoff weighed in a 34lb Chinook.  James was fishing with a Black Jig.  Well done James! Congratulations! Summary The Kitimat River experienced a wave of big, bright Chinook in the latter part of this week.  The wave of Chinook can be explained by the growing high tides.  As many of the experienced Chinook anglers who have fished the Kitimat River will attest to, the larger high tides are a major factor in deciding where to fish and when.  This correlation of the bigger high tides and increased Chinook catch rates were verified in the years when DFO conducted Creel Survey of the Chinook anglers catch on the Kitimat River and Douglas Channel.  Our Mobile Tackle Van and our Instore Derby log also correlates the increased catch rates during the bigger high tides.  Following the Kitimat Tide Chart is an essential tool for any Chinook angler fishing the Kitimat River.  We have tide charts available in our Tackle Store and they are available on my website www.kitimatfishingguideandcharters.com.  All theory aside, the proof is in the pictures and this year's Chinook Run looks like it is going to be an outstanding one!  We have dates available for Driftboat trips and we love to provide awesome fishing trips for our clients catching these Big, Bright Chinook.  Please contact Noel Gyger noel@noelgyger.ca    DOUGLAS CHANNEL:  June 11 Frank Pesunti and Andre boated a 35lb Halibut on their outing. 

 June 12 Dean Leeson and Darryl Blomme hooked 4 Chinook in the Douglas Channel and weighed in a 35lb Chinook that they caught in the Kitimat Harbour.  They reported that the channel was pretty windy but they persevered and they had 35lbs of fresh Chinook to show for their efforts. Well done Guys!   

Summary  The Douglas Channel experienced some high winds during the larger high tides and only a few boats ventured out in the latter part of the week when the Chinook were migrating through the Kitimat Harbour into the Kitimat River. The boaters who fished in the uncomfortable conditions managed to catch some Chinook. With the forecast for calmer seas,  we should see the same increased Chinook catch rates in the Salt Water Chinook fishery as we are seeing in the Kitimat River fishery.  Halibut continues to be very good this year as well.  Anglers are always in a better mood when they are catching fish! Kitimat River Tidal Fishery 

 June 10  Andreas Handl of Kingfisher Adventures guided his repeat clients from Austria, Dr. Ingo Merwald, Hr. Fritz Brueckler and Hr.Leopold Sinnhube on the lower tidal portion of the Kitimat River.  They hooked 6 Chinook and managed to land 3 beautiful, bright Chinook using Luhr Jensen Hot Shots and Luhr Jensen Jet Diver with roe.  They were using Loomis Hot Shot Rods with Shimano Calcutta reels and Maxima Ultra green 30lb. test line.  Awesome fish caught with awesome equipment! Congratulations to everyone for a very exciting day of Chinook fishing!  The Kitimat River Tidal fishery is a very unique fishery with changing water levels every 6 hours as the tide rises and falls.  It can be one of the most exciting fishing experiences an angler can participate in.  Every ardent Chinook angler should seize the opportunity to fish these big, bad, bright brutes literally minutes from the saltwater at least once in a life time.  Any interested anglers please contact Noel norl@noelgyger.ca.

   Special Report Prince Rupert June 5 Marc Elie Morin proudly reports boating a 42lb Chinook on a trip out of Prince Rupert.  Marc was fishing with Jean Beaulieu and Benoit Martine. Jean caught a large Snapper and Benoit caught a 22lb Chinook.  They also caught a bunch of Crab and a Halibut. Wow! What a great day of fishing.  Congratulations to everyone! Thank You to everyone who provided photos and info to this report. Due to the economic downturn experienced in Kitimat, caused by the Eurocan Pulp and Paper Mill closure, we have many open dates in our Drift boats, Jet boats and Saltwater Charters.  Mother Nature may be easing the burden by producing exceptional early numbers of Chinook.  Our Driftboat guides, Jetboat and Charter Boat Skippers would love to create some awesome fishing memories for any anglers wishing to enlist our services.  Any interested anglers please contact Noel Gyger noel@noelgyger.ca. Good Health and Good Fishing! Sincerely and Cheers Ron Wakita Fishing Report from:  Westcoast Fishing Adventures, Terrace and Rivers North. Hi Noel, nothing really to report I have been away on holiday with the family.  Maybe we should tell our readers I have heard from a few reliable people that the Kenai River in Alaska has been closed to King Salmon fishing.  Don't take my word for it.  If folks are interested they should contact the Alaska Fishing and Wildlife.  Regards, Gill McKean Fishing Report from:  Steelhead Heaven, Terrace and Kitimat BC 

 Hi Noel, the past week has been quite productive as the early Chinook and late Steelhead have been biting the hooks of our guests. Attached are some of the fresh fish from this week.  The

boys fished the salt and trapped a bunch of Dungeness Crab.  The Salmon season is in full swing and arriving guests will be in for a treat as each tide brings in new fish.

Guests staying in Kitimat have the opportunity to enjoy the local spa as well the numerous hot springs that flow into the Douglas Channel, not to mention a world class 18 hole golf course.

June 8 The gentleman's name is Tom the Ukrainian necktie, and it was the 1st pool of the day, 30lbs of goodness, 40inchx24inch, and Tom said his arms were like rubber when she ran into my net. I am Plug Fishing these days and my weapon of choice is the Loomis 1025, 8'6" with the reliable old Ambassador, 30lb Maxima Ultragreen and hang on!

                 18lb Chinook                                                        Eagle 

                      Green Island                                               Kelp Point

Hi Noel, I was invited on board Roy’s 32’ vessel for a day of salmon fishing and sightseeing. On our way to  Dundas Island we passed by Green Island one of a few manned light stations left on the North Coast. Also along our way we caught an Eagle which I assume was also on the lookout for a feed of fresh fish. Once we arrived at Dundas Island we joined an armada of other Sport fishermen off Kelp Point. We did manage to get one 18 lb Chinook in the boat and lost several others. No matter we had a great day and hope to get back out on the water.

Fishing Report from:  Fish Tales Tackle Shop, Terrace BC Hello Noel. Well, people are very anxious to see the Skeena clean up and drop so they can get out and get the Chinook season under way! I am receiving reports from folks that Chinook are being caught in the Kitimat river now and it is only going to get better from here on. In the past two weeks Ocean fishing has doubled. There are a lot of people mooching for Chinook, bottom fishing for Halibut, dropping prawn & crab traps out of Kitimat and Rupert and doing very well. Fish Tales has a full inventory for your fresh and saltwater fishing needs and lots of great deals to be had. We also have a complementary phone for our out of town guests to use to call home.

Come in for a coffee anytime. Cheers!Jason Munday Fishing Report from:  Marvin Reid who reports for Meziadin and area, Northern BC Hi Noel, Meziadin Lake continues to produce some very nice Dolly Varden as well as, the odd  Rainbow.  Fishing pressure has been very low over the past week. Chinook Salmon should be showing up at the confluence of the Meziadin and Nass Rivers.  This can be an exciting spot to fish, depending on the level of the Nass River.  If fishing in the area, please be Bear Aware, there are numerous bears in the area.  All northern lakes, along Hiway 37, should be producing some great fish. 

 I have enclosed photos of some recent Meziadin catches.   I had the pleasure of guiding Tony Vinciquerra and his wife Michelle. Tony was thrilled with his catch, as seen in the photo.  Last week I was able to spend an afternoon with good friend Stu Murray, his wife Lora-Lee and daughters Hailey and Kelly. We had a great afternoon and Stu was rewarded with a couple of nice Dolly's I am now the operator of Meziadin Lake Provincial Park, as well as operating the Park which has a Store, and wireless internet to all sites. We also offer Travel Trailer Rentals to persons wishing to enjoy the outdoor experience. I do guided fishing trips on Meziadin and other local lakes along Highway 37. Meziadin if not the best lake in Northwest BC for Dolly Varden and Bull Trout, up to 11 lbs, must be very close to the top of the list. I supply all rods, tackle and bait.  Care of catch and cleaning. 

Trips can be booked by the hour or by the day. I use an 19ft Harbercraft powered by a 75 Yamaha. We can be contacted at marvin_reid@telus.net , or 1 866 500 7302 Best regards,  Marvin Reid Fishing Tips and Advice from:  Bob Melrose, of Oscars Source for Sports, Smithers BC
