fly fishing vancouver

there's a good chance that i'll be heading out to vancouver again this year
for christmas, and i would like to do some fishing while i'm there. i have
begun googling up some resources for fly fishing the area, but i wondered if
anyone has had any personal experience. i will likely stick to fresh water
fishing, although i have not decided for sure. sal****er fishing would be
very convenient to my family's home, as i could venture on down the block at
any given moment and hit the water without having to be guided and driven
around, and i could get up and out while they are all still sleeping, but i
don't know what is in that water, and whether my rod is appropriate for that
kind of fishing. also, has anyone ever had any trouble flying with any of
this equipment? do the security folks go nuts over any of our stuff? any
input is appreciated.

thanks- snakefiddler

Without having been there, Id guess that Vancouver around christmas mostly
would imply
ice fishing.

If you have a 'traditional' ff setup, I would not use that in sal****er.
Sal****er has a tendency to make
things corrode really fast, so the equipment is specifically designed for that
environment. Sal****er fish
also tend to be bigger and stronger, so your reel is most likely outmatched.
