Cariboo 2021

18 08 2021

This years 10th Cariboo trip (although we didn’t hit the Cariboo on a couple of summers) did not disappoint. 7 guys for 7 days fishing followed by a few of us continuing on for a couple of more days to explore. We river fished for a few days before water temperatures got to hot and managed to spend the rest of the week exploring some lakes in the area.

Fishing was really good this year even though temperatures were high. The beauty about this part of BC is that it may hit 32 degrees in the day but the mornings can bring 4 degree temperature.

Saw a herd of elk, foxes, bears (one was brown but not sure if it was a grizzly as it moved away quickly when it saw me).

As usual our friends in the Cariboo put up with us for the week living with them during our fishing trip just adds to the experience. Hard to believe its over and I guess this means the calendar countdown starts again for another year.

Nothing beats catching wild trout in moving water on the dry fly but I have to admit i did put on a strike indicator for a day and fished perdigon nymphs which was very successful.
