Thanks Rod I sure appreciate your time and devotion you've put in over the years and seeing how far you've come as fisherman and teacher, pretty amazing to watch
You're welcome. Thanks for the kind words! 😊
Always good to see you guys fishing with such classics as "I looked away and my float went down" and my fish decided to run into someone. Awesome work as always Rodney!
243pete It really didn’t matter that much toward the end of that trip because whenever I looked the way and the float was down, they were hooking themselves, so aggressive!
Wow,,, tidal AND first light opportunities,,,, you are the teaching the real tricks! AND you can really make a day of it out there!! Fish On!!
Appreciate the video. Thank you for taking the time to teach us.
Its always nice to watch Fishing with Rod before real Salmon fishing starts! :D
I guess I'm not the only one who's getting excited about what's going to happen in a couple of weeks from now. ;)
@@FishingwithRod we almost there 😁
Great video Rod! Looking forward to some more Coho recipe videos. Cheers!
Looked like a amazing day of fishing . You guys make walking that river look so easy .
The lower river has small gravel and is generally flat so walking it is relatively easy.
@@FishingwithRod how does one get to the lower part of the river cause i had a stork few years back i find walking on larger rocks makes me lose my balance rather quickly
Another great video Rod. Love watching them. Cheers.
Thanks again!
I love that both you and your wife fish together! It's an awesome date!
Selena D It is great to see more and more female anglers either joining their spouse or fishing on their own here! 👍
You guys slayed them! That was one hefty tote of fish. I am very glad I went down there on the monday and experienced a little bit of this great fishery. Thanks for the video!
The Fishing Doctors Adventures More to come in two weeks!
@@FishingwithRod I hope You're right! I'll be there! The pine mushrooms are popping now, just starting!
Well done Rod and Nina ! Some very nice Coho's ! Thanks for sharing.

minkos61 Thanks Ernie! We are pretty lucky to have this fishery at our doorstep.
She called it. “I know I’m going to get one when I put the camera down”
Boom fish on
Woody Xyooj 😂
Thank you. Great presentation.
Terry McCarthy thank you! 😊
As always, another great video rod! Beauty fish.
EhFishin Thanks!
Really tuff fishing right now in the southern part of lake Michigan on the Michigan coast line water temperature 63 degrees. Only good on the charter boats tuff off shore.
Amazing :) Thanks for taking the time to share :) :) !!!
Goin' 2Live You’re welcome! Thanks for watching
You two had a double fish on that is so cool lol :D good times!!!
It was pretty awesome!
lol ' the bite is on... just not on my line' XD haha can totally relate to that
Basic_Fishing Haha yep!
you're making it so easy to fish
Credit sequence shot is awesome! hahaha
We loved it too! ;)
I swear I heard that fish say "Oooouuuch~~~~~!!!" (as in what the heck just hit me?) and when you said you need a bigger rock, fish said "god damn it~, Kill Me Already!!".
Love the videos rod!
Thanks Michael! 🙂
nice hunt was a nice video congratulations👍👍
Thanks 👍
May you catch more fish in your next trip 😉😉
And thank's for sharing.....
CSP Sport Thanks for watching!
Hi Rod,
I wish I can go fishing with you to learn more on fishing.
Thank you and God bless!
love your stuff man! quality fishin
Fishing The Odds Thank you!
Hey Rod, I'm trying this new (to me) Japanese way of killing a fish instead of giving it the old rock shampoo. It's called ikejime. It's where you literally stab the fish in the brain then bleeding it out. Kills the fish immediately! See you around at the vedder. We're at the canal most of the time. If you hear noisy Filipinos, that's probably us hahaha!
Hey Rod. Do you have a video for identifying the various species of salmon in BC, something detailed for a beginner.
Hi Kash, I have videos of perhaps two salmon species being compared, but never a video with all five Pacific salmon species being identified. It's definitely something we need to work on as you mentioned. :)
Any tips for catching Chinook salmon? I fish in a larger river where water can be up to 20 feet deep. I been trying spinners and jigs but nothing so far. I'm gonna try drifting roe this weekend as well hopefully I get one.
visualkeirockstar For chinook salmon, float fishing with roe definitely works best. Adjust your depth so it is close to the bottom where the fish are. We have a tutorial on chinook salmon float fishing setup a couple of videos before this one on the channel so you might want to check that out.
Its like being there again!
Nina had you worried a bit at the start!
bugpumper I was trying to tell her that I wanted my rod to go over her line while I go under it. Somehow the message couldn’t be delivered. You know, typical husband and wife miscommunication 😆
@@FishingwithRod oh I totally get the miscommunication thing!!
IMHO the most exciting fish to catch River or Ocean is the Coho !!
When it comes to salmon, I totally agree. 😊 They are quite unpredictable, the bites can turn on and off pretty easily, they don't hunker down like a chinook or chum salmon, but instead they dart around and can easily get off if you are not careful. Plus they are just very pretty to look at too! Love it! 😊
BEST SEASON OF THE YEAR!!!!
Taylor Akers It is indeed.
I really like videos of you and nina!
licho cruz Well there’ll be more in the near future for sure. Thanks for watching. 😊
Hey rodney. I'm new to salmon fishing. If I don't have cured salmon roe, will roe bags or beads work just as well for chinook or coho. And also what parts of the river should I start to get on some salmon.
Yep beads, roe bags, shrimp all work for chinook and coho salmon under a float. As for locations, they can be caught throughout the river, just depends on the conditions which make some spots better than others at any given time. Check out some of the articles on my website for more info on this subject. 👍
always amazing production quality! what mic setup do you usually use Rod?
bavarian3 I have a shotgun mic on the DSLR for this video. It’s not bad, but actually I’m not super impressed with this shotgun mic anymore so will be upgrading soon.
Hi there just want to ask if you're using barb less hook?
TIBORCIO PaYoTenYo We are actually legally required to use barbless hooks in rivers. I highly recommend them regardless for better fish handling and less complications when you hook yourself.
@@FishingwithRod
Thankyou verymuch
I really want to know the rules n regulations about fishing salmon
To a person have knowledge like you before trying to go fishing..
One more question where can i purchase a license for salmon fishing?
God bless You!👍👍👍
TIBORCIO PaYoTenYo You’re welcome. All that information on regulations and licences are available on our website at www.fishingwithrod.com actually. If you’ve never fished in BC before, I recommend you to go through the articles. 👍
Soooo jealous! I gotta make the trip down from Lillooet to try one of these years. Great video!
ChipDarby13 Thanks! 😊
Where i fish there are 12 square miles of them a foot apart. 10 miles off shore. You can catch them blindfolded.All on flyrods. Im known for the only Halibut/ sockeye double header in BC.Bucktails are the funnest. Im a pro west coast salmon guide. Used to fly rish rivers but the only thing biting were balsom cedar and hemlock trees.

Hey Rod, I'm a big fan of your videos. My wife and I are just starting to get into fishing and we prefer to use spoons (less gear required). Today we went out to a part of the vedder but we felt the water was perhaps moving too fast maybe due to all the rain? (the lure just ran with the current and retrieval would push it up to the surface. Everyone else was floatfishing). Do you have any tips on how to identify where water may be more ideal for lures by looking on a map? (e.g. at a bend, wider vs narrower parts of river, etc.) I love fishing but never seem to have much success when I hit the rivers for salmon.
Beyar90 Thanks! You really can’t just look on the map to find spoon waters because for one, the river is constantly changing and secondly spoon waters are often small and can’t be seen until you walk up to them. Your best approach is to walk the river at least once per season with your rod and pay attention to where all the log jams are, look for moderate flows/walking speed current and stagnant water that backs up from side channels. These are all spots preferred by coho. Spots also come and go as the river level rises and drops. Good luck, we still have a few more weeks of good fishing!
@@FishingwithRod So after watching your lure fishing tips for Coho video, I realized I needed a heavier lure for faster water. Bought a Gibbs Koho 1/2 oz and went back to the same spot today. Landed my first ever coho (kept) and a chum (released). I also hooked 2 more that got away. Thanks again to you and your great videos!
Beyar90 That’s awesome!!
Hey Rod! Have you fished on the Vedder yet? And I was wondering also, any tips or advices on how to spot a run in the water?
Isn’t that the vedder?
Hey nice video! I used to go down there in the summer time for swimming and picnics never knew had good fish in those waters. I was just wondering how to catch them.like the bait?
Check out all the other tutorials on this fishery, which tell you exactly what setup, lures and bait you need.
Brilliant sport there rod.will have to come over and get some of that myself.Thanks for the show..steve from ireland
Stephen Thorpe fishing for salmon with bait when they are running to spawn is not a sport it is disgusting. in nova Scotia we fly fish for salmon catch and release and barbless hook. all salmon fishing in b.c. freshwater or tidal must be done barbless
@@trevormccamon877 thanks for your opinion trevor..i think i may have misrepresented myself there a little bit by calling salmon fishing a sport when really to me its a hunt..thats where you and i differ by a huge margin..you see i fish solely for the pot and its my aim to land a fish as quickly as i can and despatch it, to me hooking a fish and playing it to exhaustion is cruel and does nothing but give stress to the animal in question..using fly fishing equipment on the the other hand doesnt lend itself to landing a fish quickly but only adds to the length of torture and stress put on the fish for your own pleasure..to me if your not out to kill a salmon for in order to feed yourself with a healthy nutritious dinner then you have no business sticking a hook in that fish purely to feed your ego at the expense of another creature..
I wouldn't worry about what trevor is saying Stephen. Fisheries are managed differently in different parts of World. Using bait to catch these hatchery coho salmon are perfectly fine.
hi rod..no not worried in the slightest by Trevor..we come accross the same stuff here in ireland and uk..the trouble with that attitude is it serves no purpose only to divide anglers which in my opinion is totally wrong..
Yep. FYI for when you do come over here to enjoy our fisheries: This particular fishery is hatchery enhanced. Only hatchery marked coho salmon can be kept while wild coho salmon are required to be released. It's a great program which provides opportunities to harvest high quality salmon for anglers of all levels while protecting the wild stock. The number of fish anglers are legally allowed to harvest may seem generous, but overall there always is a surplus of hatchery fish by the end of the season (last year it was 40k fish). This surplus of fish is given to the local First Nation band, not used for additional reproduction so harvest by angling is not a conservation concern in this case, we are not targeting fish that are intended to spawn.
Looks like a blast! I wish we could use bait on my local river but it's restricted to no bait and no scent 😢
Stephen Craig No worries if there’s a bait ban. In fact I really enjoy fishing rivers where bait isn’t allowed, everyone in the same playing field and fish are more willing to bite. My favourite way to get them in bait ban rivers is by casting spoons. 😄
Go Nina! I see you got yourself a Lynx model knife Rod. Good choice!
Jason's Fishing Again? Yep it’s an awesome knife! 😊
@@FishingwithRod When I first saw Kitty wearing hers, I asked you what it was. You told me about North Arm Knives, and immediately ordered my own. I love it.
looks like you two got the run timing right. That was a good watch. Anyone know if those coho the typical size for that run?
littlegoobie Yep success in this fishery highly depends on timing. Time your outing with the tide, the rise and drop of river level due to rain, first light, last light, cloudy days would only increase your chance of catching coho. The average size of these coho salmon this year is around 3 to 5lb. The odd 8 pounders are caught but beyond 10 is rare. That’s quite a bit smaller than past seasons. I posted a write-up about this not long ago on here, our Facebook page and Instagram. 🙂
Awesome!! Video!!
Thank you!
Got to say rod I can't remember the last time I limited out on coho 😣
Great as always! What time of year was this?
Thanks. October.
4 per day and the vedder river you say! hmm ill see you soon my friend
Great fishing as usual. What rod are asking for this trip?
RGutz81 Thanks! Both rods are G.Loomis baitcasting rods. The one I was using is an IMX model, 10’6” and rated 6 to 12lb. The one Nina was using is an E6X model, 10’ and rated 10 to 20lb.
@@FishingwithRod thanks for the response as usual. Im updating some of my gear cuz most of my rods are for my bass boat i use to have. thanks! Tight lines!!!
Jealous! That place looks phenomenal!
Amateur Hour Adventures We are very lucky to have this river by our house. 😊
Nice job limiting out! Would love if you could provide your setup on your vids (rod/reel/line/etc).
Denny Lee Thanks! Check out the video tutorial on standard river float fishing setup on the channel. It should explain everything on the setup that we used in this video. 😊
A brilliant day.
Vincent Donnelly It sure was! Thanks for watching 😊
Kinda therapeutic watching this video. Awesome catches! I’m very new to float fishing. What size was your leader? I also noticed many people retrieving quickly. Is that every time, or only when they feel a bite? Regardless even if you don’t answer I learned a lot from your tutorials. Thank you!
Thanks! I usually use either 10lb or 12lb Seaguar fluorocarbon for leader. Retrieving quickly when having a fish on? It's usually to get rid of the slack line as quickly as possible so you stay in contact with the fish. They have a tendency to move toward you really fast when hooked.
Fishing with Rod thanks for replying Rod! More so referring to at the end of the float drift. I see people feeling super fast and trying to hookset. Perhaps it’s preference but was just curious. Looking forward to more vidz !
If you don't get a bite at the end of the float drift, I would just reel in slowly. We're using bait, so reeling it in as fast as I can would mean the bait falling off the hook. Some people have a tendency to yank and reel in fast at the end of the drift hoping that a fish would be hooked randomly, it's best not to do that.
Fishing with Rod thanks for clarifying. Exactly what I was thinking. Thank you!
Nice Rod!
Thanks!
That's so cool man. Wish me wife enjoyed fishing with me......
Take her out and try it. :)
Thanks guys! Still early it's just going to get better!👍
Im going tomorrow 😂😂 hope i get the same luck as you!

Where is a good place to buy some cured roe?
Berry's Bait and Tackle in Richmond.
Good year!
I'd say so. :)
what size tranx are you using?
The one used by my wife in this video was a 300, I was using a Curado. That Tranx 300 has been fantastic, a little bit overkill for these coho salmon, but it has been awesome for chinook, chum salmon and steelhead.
dam i going to miss the premier because ill be at the vedder
Well, that'll be the next best thing, right? ;)
ya it will be
Nice job limiting out. Would love to know where this is. Cheers from Seattle!
Jerry ignacio Vedder Canal
If you know where Sumas Washington is then on the Canadian side of the border East Chilliwack bc area. The river is very close to the border
Good job bro
Hey you can't say that until the video comes out. ;)
@@FishingwithRod put it out, you're killing me
What is the limit on the Vedder, in the ocean, its 2 in my area, 127
Steve Carlisle 4 hatchery marked coho per day.
@@FishingwithRod thanks Rod
what rod / reel is she using ?
The rod is a G.Loomis E6X, 10ft long, rated 10 to 20lb. The reel is a Shimano Tranx 300. This setup is a little bit on the heavier side for these coho salmon, but it's a well rounded setup for both bigger and smaller fish. She likes it because it is a bit easier on her arms when fighting bigger fish, yet the setup is still light enough for her to cast all day.
You have 45 likes and 2 dislikes and the video has not yet even been available for viewing. Amazing!
Yeah I don't get what all the hype is about. 😜
@@FishingwithRod must be something in the water, hehe!
The Fishing Doctors Adventures it has nothing to do with that thumbnail, I’m sure! 🙄😆
@@Nina-qz2bt That's a slight possibility!
Rod, I used your setup for salmon fishing and flossed my first salmon at the Feather River outlet! Thanks man! It was a blast! Today Lake Davis for Rainbow!
Great to hear! Thanks for watching!
If you cast right handed try using a left handed reel. This will eliminate the old cross over waste of time that can cause a lost fish.
That woud be the ideal way of course and I don't recommend others to do what I do. It's just a habit of mine which I've gotten used to in the last 30+ years.
Clearly Rod need no luck fishing! Was on fire!!!
Tessa Liu Being at the right place, right time, using the right gear plus a bit of luck. 😊
Better get that smoker going!
jay Roberge We don’t smoke our coho salmon, or any salmon actually. Nothing wrong with it but we’ve been enjoying our salmon with lots of non-smoking recipes - soup/chowder, broiled, gravlax...
You gotta get her a left hand retrieve. Other then that you guys slayed 75% jealous lol
Haha thanks Nik!
I'm going today!
How was it? :D
im headed up Saturday I hope im just as productive

daleportorford In other videos. 😄
wheres kitty ?
martin van eeden Looking after her 20 little grade 1 students. 😄
@@FishingwithRod lol nice
It's pretty gross seeing so many people just crowding in on each other.
Jason's Fishing Again? It’s the nature of a fishery that is close to the city unfortunately, everyone just wants to catch fish so it’s understandable, but not necessarily acceptable, to crowd. Most of the anglers around us were in fact our friends. We did get crowded out later on by people who just barged in without asking but that’s ok, we just left as we had had our fish and fun already. 😊
Fishing with Rod that’s the reality of fishing on the road system in Alaska too. I didn’t like it so I flew out to western Alaska to wilderness. Most people are civilized and it’s fine if you like that. Now I live and fish in Wyoming and anyone within 200 meters is crowded.
Don’t show killing the silvers with a rock!
While it might not be visually appealing, I need to show the viewers that the fish need to be dispatched right away once caught.
Nice Koho limits????? Wtf?? Oh that’s right the Steelhead are non existent even in their seasons, now on the West Coast! Lol
Classified water is a joke and so are the license fees in B.C.....Great Lakes fishing is where it’s at! 🇨🇦
Fred Edish Ok, stay over there then. 😂
Looks like you're flossing at the end of the drift after she put the camera down
UcranianoUKR Nope. 👋
Ay yo, that's illigal, the catch rate is around 2
That made no sense. Read the regulations first prior to commenting or taking part in this particular fishery please.
WHAT EVER HAPPENED TOO CATCH AND RELEASE PEOPLE ??????
Manfred Buchholz If you’ve read the earlier comments and listen to what is being explained in the video, then you’d know what happened. I’ll C&P a response to another comment similar to yours below:
Catch and release is appropriate under certain circumstances. Excessive catch and release is also a bad practice which should not be promoted. In this case, I have no problem with promoting harvesting your allowable limit of hatchery raised coho salmon because it is NOT a conservation concern. These hatchery fish are intended to be harvested and not for recruitment of the population. That’s what wild fish are for, which are released as you can see in the video. Each season, there are tens of thousands of these hatchery coho salmon which make it to the hatchery without being caught by anglers. These fish are known as surplus fish which are given to the local First Nation. If you choose not to retain these fish when they are caught because you do not want to eat them, by all means release them, but there is absolutely nothing wrong with keeping your quota of fish as long as they are not wasted. I’d rather see more of that than having peoplec buying commercially caught or farm raised fish.
@@FishingwithRod Hi Rod, just curious as to what you mean by excessive catch and release? And why this could be a bad thing? If the methods one uses to catch and release are proper, the mortality rate of C&R fish goes down drastically - conversely, if C&R methods are improper, this can lead to a lot of dead fish. But I'm racking my brain here as to how excessive C&R, done properly, could be a bad thing?
@@sonsoffishes1 Good question. Catch and release is a good way to conserve while allowing anglers to enjoy fishing, but we have to remember that regardless how well the practice is done, there is always some mortality. It all comes down to how much impact we should have on the resources. In British Columbia, there isn't a regulation which limits how many fish you can catch and release per day, but such a rule does exist in some other parts of the world. Say if the post-release mortality rate is 10%, one in ten fish being released would die. If an angler chooses to catch and release 20, then two would die. In a heavily used fishery, if every angler chooses to catch and release that many fish, then mortality adds up. This is a very generic summary of course. Catch and release mortality can vary greatly by many factors beside handling practices. Surface water temperature is one that can make a huge difference. The type of species being released can react differently too.
@@FishingwithRod Right. I understand all that, but the argument can be made that there will always be more dead fish if you are keeping your limit plus releasing the remaining. Or alternatively, even keeping 1 or 2 and releasing the rest. I just don't see an argument that 100% catch and release with a 10-20% mortality rate will kill more fish than bonking , which is a 100% mortality rate, plus 10-20% on the remainder you C&R.
@@FishingwithRod I think the real problem lies with C&R fisherman who do not use proper techniques. Nets that are coarse mesh and too small for the fish so they rub off their scales and slime, improper and excessive handling, starving the fish of oxygen for too long, even hook removal, etc. Research indicates improper catch and release can lead to 50-80% mortality rates depending on the species and conditions.
just because you catch doesn’t mean you gotta kill it...
Robert Sokugawa Of course. Catch and release is appropriate under certain circumstances. Excessive catch and release is also a bad practice which should not be promoted. In this case, I have no problem with promoting harvesting your allowable limit of hatchery raised coho salmon because it is NOT a conservation concern. These hatchery fish are intended to be harvested and not for recruitment of the population. That’s what wild fish are for, which are released as you can see in the video.

Using roe ? Really ?? Thats not sporting at all!!!!
Paul Shaw That’s your opinion, the regulation says otherwise.
disgusting watching you catch salmon on a spin rod. unsportsmanlike behavior. I hope you are using barbless hooks which is the law for all salmon fishing in b.c. freshwater or tidal
Trevor Mccamon Catching salmon on a spinning rod is unsportsmanlike? 🤣🤣🤣
BTW, it’s a bait casting rod. 😎
Fishing with Rod barbless hooks ?
Trevor Mccamon Watch the video
Cry about it, you're just mad that a 200$ spinning rod setup can do what your 1200$ spey rod can do but better. Fly style rods are obsolete, nothing beats the drag system on a good spinning reel.
