Hi Uahoo! I have been using 14lb Stren fishing line on my centre pin for years. Some people may think that's light line but I land even the biggest Spring salmon on that line. It has a high visibility purple glow to it that I like also. Go see my friends at Pacific Angler and they will get you what you need.
@@bugpumper do you bother looking at the rivers water level when planning a trip? Any insights on when is best to go? I’ve gone a few times to the cap as it’s quite far away from me and just fishing for more info before planning another trip, I’ve gotten skunked pretty much every time I’ve gone 😂
@@Draculanim I always look at the river levels but thats usually just to know weather I'll be drifting roe or if its really low then I'll be fly fishing a very fast sinking line. If you want to get your fishing dialed in make sure you have good roe, four #4 split shots, a swivel and 10lb leader to a size 4 hook with a nickle sized chunk of roe on.
This is the perfect answer Chris, I’d pin this comment myself if it was my own video for all the new ones trying to get into it. Thanks a ton for this, was exactly what I was hoping for! Will get this set up ready tonight since everyone I’ve talked to this week who’s gone to the cap has had quite an awesome week.
@@bugpumper thanks a lot, wasn’t getting a lot of action on soft beads and I heard roe works well just have to catch some fish first to get roe lol, thank you!
Awesome fish! I’m looking forward to heading out there. How deep do you fish your bobber in the cable area? I’m super new to fishing and I can never seem to find the fish with that in that area with the floats.
Hi Finnan! You want to have your bobber just off the bottom so when I start fishing the first few casts I pay attention to the float to tell weather its dragging on the bottom or not and adjust the depth accordingly. Good luck out there.
Nothing for me so far, couple trips out. Not using roe (guy beside me once was) but usually fish in canyons or just below highway 1. Maybe just more time for me haha. I've always struggled with this fishery.
I'm a true fisherman and conservationist. Have been for over 50 years. I would be embarrased and ashamed to kill those tiny fish. A true sportsman would be releaing them. Shame on you.
..and just like that, the season begins ! Yet another entertaining clip ! Hope to meet u on the river !
see you out there LT!
Nice work Chris! I haven't been able to trick one on a fly yet... Might have to try a bead soon :)
Hi! Try roe, much better!!
If you need some roe let us know @rosin flyfishing🤣🤣🤣
@@BCFishingMajors can I still call it fly fishing............... 😆
@@RosinFlyFishing 🤣🤣🤣 sure can my friend!! I’ve seen people fly roe under bobber… somehow it worked🧐
@@BCFishingMajors I might take you up on the offer fellas haha
Hello, I've been thinking of getting a centerpin reel and I was wondering on what fishing line you suggest using, thanks.

Season begin! Caught a 3lber same spot first light today! What time of the day did you fish? Look like a late morning…
early afternoon for me, had to sleep in!
how was the water Bill?
I would say hwy 1 bridge is worthy to visit, pretty good water level.
hey Chris just wondering if you time this fishery with the tide at ambleside? awesome catches, hope to meet you on the river one of these days!
hey Drak! yes, at the hwy bridge I do, but at the cable pool any time works.

Great video could you make a video how to set up a fly rod
Congratulations!!! Thanks for shooting this video. I would like to know which brand rod and reel you use. Please let me know.
sure, that is a 10'6 Fenwick rod matched to a Kingpin centrepin reel. 14lb main line and 10lb fluorocarbon leader.
Nice on the fish! Tight Lines.
Nice! How deep you fishing on the second spot?
5 ft maybe only 4.
Do you use fake roe or a fly? They where jumping at the line yesterday and small one sniping at the fly
I use both. The water was high that day, so I was using actual roe. This was in May, before the bait ban came into affect.
will spinners and spoons work
there's a chance for sure, but I never use them.
Hi Chris, were you using roe? Killer video again!
thanks David! yes it was double red roe.
@@bugpumper thanks a lot, wasn’t getting a lot of action on soft beads and I heard roe works well just have to catch some fish first to get roe lol, thank you!
@@davidxia5127 if you want, that Esso station before you turn into the hatchery has decent roe. ( but not as good as mine)
@@bugpumper you mean the chevron gas station? Couldn’t remember any essos near the hatchery
@@davidxia5127 you're probably right. I thought Esso but maybe Chevron.
Using mainly roe, Chris? ever try beads..
not in the Cap, they seem to prefer roe when they are not super fresh. But I'll use them on the Vedder!
@@bugpumper Thanks. Do you think it'll be ok fishing for coho until end of july? im out of town until 3d week july lol
@@bsdgffishtuna5186 yes, it'll only get better and many guys will go to the Vedder instead.
