River boating in mcbride

[hughie]

Anybody done any river boating up there, heading up sept long for a wedding, taking my river boat up there for the first time, going to have a bunch of local tour guides, but just wondering if anyone on here has done some boating up there and has a favorite run up one of the rivers, water will probably be low, so may be stuck on the fraser, but hopefully not

Get a hold of Rod Welpton from Adrenaline Tours. He's running a jet boat and should be able to point you in the right direction. I know you could probably run up the Morkill out by Cresent Spur. Higgins.

Rivers were pretty sweet, mostly ran the fraser and holmes up to the falls, had a good storm friday night, rivers must have came up about 10 inches from friday to saturday, didnt get as much boating in as a guy would of liked to, had a wedding saturday, so only got a few hours in, and right now probably going to go for supper then hit the river for a few hours, will post some pics when I get home I hope, camera went for a swim so hopefully I can get the pics I took to download.

You know what they say, "the only thing better than owning a river boat is owning two", maybe the next one will lean a little more towards that application, it would be nice to fit more than two people, but the fun factor is REAL HIGH!!!

Running rivers is a gas!! I've done that NSR and the Fraser so far, and there is nothing like it. But if you can fish them it's even better. You know, a couple Sturgeon a few Salmon!! Waahoo!!!

We unloaded right at the bridge outside of town and off you go, by mid april it'll be 2 sleds on the deck and the boat behind everytime a guy goes up, should be able to get 3 or 4 trips in before the middle of june then, its just boating season after that
