Hi Subscriber and welcome to the GRFA fishing report updated on the 16th of April 2026.
Trees are budding and the birds have returned from their wintering grounds to greet this incredible spring that we are having. As the days continue to grow longer, the local waters are warming up, and the fish are biting! It’s time to shake off the cabin fever and get out on the water.
Before we get into the scene on the rivers, we would like we ...

Hi there and welcome to the GRFA fishing report updated on the 31st of March 2026.
Spring has sprung… It’s that time of year again, when we start to see mother nature shake off winter and start anew the circle of life. As the plants and animals begin their spring rituals we find fish feeling frisky as their world warms. This is a fantastic time to get out on the water and bend a rod.
Hi there and welcome to the GRFA fishing report updated on the 17th of February 2026.
February is typically the time that many anglers like to prep gear and dream about the warmer months around the corner. We are blessed that in our neck of the woods we do not experience the frigid cold that Canada is known for and we can keep fishing without drilling holes through the ice. Thus far our winter has been mild and quite temperate, this ...

Hi There! and welcome to the GRFA fishing report updated on the 5th of November 2025.
As we move into November we see one of our favorite times of the year on the river. With fishing pressure diminishing quickly the rivers start to empty of people and yet the fishing remains very strong. In fact it’s often some of the best of the season.
Currently Chum are still pushing in hard with every tide and DFO has opened a catch and release ...

Hi There! and welcome to the GRFA fishing report updated on the 1st of October 2025.
With the Pink salmon returning in massive numbers through September we saw some incredible fishing, and what a treat it was to get to fish the mainstem Fraser River for salmon again… it’s been too long. Anglers enjoyed wide open gravel bars with miles of picture perfect salmon holding water with no shortage of bent rods. It was truly an amazing time to be on ...

Hi Subscriber and welcome to the GRFA fishing report updated on the 30th of July 2025.
The weather continues to be incredible up the Fraser Valley. Warm days, great company and BIG fish, this is what we live for. Anyone heading out on the water these days better not forget the sun screen lotion and some cool drinks it’s been hot… and so has the fishing.
First some good news… Salmon returns are much higher than anticipated! The early Stuart Sockeye runs are nearly ...

We are on the eve of the official start of summer, however with the incredible weather we’ve been experiencing and an extremely mild run off season it seems we are running ahead of schedule in fishing terms. Locally the spring freshet has already crested and has been dropping hard and most rivers are in fabulous shape. Please keep in mind to check the regulations ...

Hi There and welcome to the GRFA fishing report updated on the 20th of May 2025.
Spring is in the air! And with it we feel the urge to get out on the water and bend a rod. Also with Fathers Day right around the corner it’s time to start planning Dad’s fishing trip with the family, a guided trip makes fantastic memories that the whole family can enjoy. Maybe a stay and play package in one of our luxurious accommodation option listed below. ...
