VEDDER RIVER COHO — Float Fishing Cured Salmon Roe and Soft Beads for Chrome Fish | Chilliwack, BC

This week I made my first couple visits of the season to the Vedder River in Chilliwack, BC. The first trip was a scouting session. I didn't find any Coho Salmon that day, but caught some extremely fresh Chinook Salmon in the canal while fishing BnR Soft Beads under a float. A couple of days later I returned to the river, and this time around I got lucky and hooked into 3 beautiful silver Coho.

On both of these recent trips I experimented with how to rig soft beads for float fishing. I saw a new technique outlined by YouTuber ‪@Go2fishingbc‬ in a recent video (link below) - -rather than using a bead-stopper to hold the bead on the leader a few inches above the hook, he fishes the bead directly on the hook.

This new approach worked wonders for me. I got solid hook-sets on every bite, and each fish I landed was hooked super securely right in the top of the mouth.

I also experimented with combining Cured Roe and Soft Beads in one presentation. I found that fishing a small 10mm bead right on the hook under a small amount of roe was the ticket for the Coho this time around.
