Dwayne, thanks for your reply.
That sounds crazier even, than our MNR issuing different limits, for the same fish, in different lakes !
Or different "slot" sizes for the same fish, in different lakes !
Hope the family is safe & well ?
Deb had an ambulance ride to the town ER, yesterday.
Fever, sore throat, chest pain & feeling feint.
Looks like 2 years in, the beer virus may have caught us !
Paul.

Hey Dwayne As soon as they allow unvaxed to cross the border, Ill pull my boat over and try Osoyoos. Ive driven by Osooyoos dozens of times and have always wanted to try fishing it. Look like a road trip in my future. Ive caught some nice smallies in the Okanagon river and sockeye during the run. Welcome to join me Tom ribka; Good evening my friend, I hope the 3rd last day of March was decent to you and you're all well.
We have crappy in Osoyoos Lake here, as well as in the Okanagan River. They might be in Skaha Lake too, I'm not sure but they are definitely in Vaseux Lake or were years back last time I fished there in summer.
There used to be a municipal pond very close to our place where someone had put in bass, crappie and sunfish, but it dried up when the Regional District put in a different septic handling system and shut the pond down. I'll note because of what it was, we never ate any of the fish in that pond, but there were lots of fish in it for sure.
It was about 57° here today more or less. Warm enough to start weeding the garden and getting it ready as well as peeling the good snow tires off the pickup and putting the old ones on for the summer to burn off.
All the best.
Dwayne

ribka; Good afternoon my friend, I hope you're getting the warm and calm day we are up here and you're well.
For sure that sounds like a fun time sir!
Before committing to go fishing with me however, you should be warned I'm not known as a good luck talisman even remotely.
Some unkind folks have accused me of being able to stop an epic bite just by showing up.
Still, there should still be some fish left in that lake and I know a few spots where we used to throw in some lures back in the day.
The sockeye run you mentioned gets pretty busy now I hear, but some boats do fairly well too so there is that.
For sure drop me a PM and I'll send you some contact info.
All the best.
Dwayne

Paul; Holy cow I'm sorry to read of that!!
I hope she's already on the road to a speedy recovery from whatever it is that's caught up to her.
For sure I'll remember her as well as you and the rest of Clan '99 in my prayers.
We'll be in touch.
Dwayne

Ice fishing done for us now, I think !! Still 24"+ of ice, but starting to get honeycombed & multiple slush layers. Feed of crappie, to finish; Panko crumbs; Italian bread crumbs; Man, we are so thankful to be able to utilize & enjoy our, late fall, winter & early spring !
