The species called chum salmon, Oncorhynchus keta are known as "Dog Salmon" because of their dog-like teeth . Chum salmon fly fishing is completely catch and release when fishing with Valley Fishing Guides Ltd.

The chum come back in huge numbers in October and November making catching this fish exciting and fun for novice fly fishers to seasoned anglers! The hardest part is hanging on to these feisty fish! They fight hard using the strong river currents to their advantage, jumping and sprinting throughout the battle. Often you are fighting the fish well into the backing for the majority of the fight.

If you plan to bring your own gear, we recommend at least a 9 foot 8 weight rod with type IV sink tip line. We will provide the terminal tackle required for the species targeted.
