Pacific Angler Outlook: Christmas season is here and the Pacific Angler staff have been decking the halls and putting together gift packages and ideas. This year you can get exactly what you want under the tree instead of tube socks or a Christmas sweaters – then again socks aren’t a bad idea. A couple pairs…
Pacific Angler Outlook: For the fishermen we tend to look at the calendar not in months but in fishing seasons. As Christmas marks that time of year to be merry it also marks the beginning of the winter steelhead season throughout the lower mainland. Yes, December is one of Pacific Angler’s favourite months. The anticipation…

Pacific Angler Outlook Fall is in the air! The days are shorter, darker and yes, rain is (will be) a constant. For most normal people in Vancouver this brings on the first dose of fall/winter depression, but not for the keen Vancouver angler. The fall rains bring a smile across the many anglers throughout the…
Pacific Angler Outlook The staff at Pacific Angler almost forgot what rain looks like but Mother Nature seems determined to remind us. For the fall salmon angler rain can be both good news and bad news. The good news is the high water has brought in a ton of fresh salmon. The bad news has…

Pacific Angler Outlook I can’t believe that September is almost over. It looks like Mother Nature can’t believe it either because she keeps delivering amazing summer weather. Since August 1st, only 5.9 mm of rain has fallen in Vancouver. Normally, 92.6 mm would fall through August and September. The Vancouver forecast is calling for a…
