If anyone knows Robert, please keep your prayers with his family. He is still currently missing and they were planning to do another sweep yesterday but seems like conditions are not favorable and not sure if they did in fact proceed. Anyone planning to go salmon fishing in BC, be careful and wear your lifejackets! He did not wear his as he thought he knew the river and mother nature jinxed him.

No name in the article but this isn't Robert from Kilby Lodge sturgeon fishing (formerly from Mannville ) is it?

If he is Polish and from the Edmonton area then yes it is him. He took people sturgeon and salmon fishing near Kitimat.

He is polish and was from the edmonton area but the Robert I'm thinking of has run kilby lodge in the Mission area for about 2 years. He's a guide on the Fraser and does some salmon trips north in the kitimat area.
