Kitimat River Chinook - On the Fly, Continued
 |
| Here's another 40 lb Chinook Salmon caught by Jason Drummond on the Kitimat River yesterday with guide Dustin Kovacvich. This is the biggest fish Jason has ever landed - well done! Happy to say it was on one of my flies too, a large two toned pink Intruder, fished just off the bottom. |
Chinook fishing on the Kitimat River continues to be productive for our clients swinging large Intruder flies on their spey rods. Indeed, it has been a great season on the Kitimat and there are still fresh Chinook pouring in each day. These Chinook tend to keep their heads down, so it's important that you sink your fly deeply in the water column. Jason Drummond ensured his fly was just off the bottom, and was rewarded with this 40 lb fish! A tense 30 minute battle ensued, but in the end, Nicholas Dean Lodge head guide and manager, Dustin Kovacvich, was able to get the big fish in the net. Well done Jason!
