| Great
Fishing
Even
before the turn of the century, serious salmon fishermen were
traveling from around the world to fish the waters of Vancouver
Island, in pursuit of the famed "Tyee" - Chinook King
salmon in excess of thirty pounds.
Although
the largest of the salmon, the Tyee is by no means the only
star in a glittering cast of available sport fish.
The hard fighting Northern Coho Silver, the abundant pink, the
rich sockeye or reds, the Chinook or King, autumn
chum salmon, silver steelhead, coastal cutthroats, and dolly
varden char, all provide the area with high caliber fishing.

the ocean, returning to the streams and lakes for some exceptionally
exciting fishing.

look after your catch entirely! It will be cleaned and frozen ready
for the day of your departure. You may have your catch canned, cold
smoked lox / lachs, hot smoked or made into Indian candy at any
one of the fish processors on the Island.
What
to Bring -
Our climate is typical of the northwest coast. We are located
about 200 miles north of Vancouver, BC, and 300 miles north of
Seattle, Washington, so our climate is very similar. You'll find
it much warmer, drier and sunnier here than Alaska or the northern
coast of British Columbia. Essentials consist of a warm jacket
temperatures range from 7-29 °C, 45-85 °F, white bottom runners
or deck shoes, camera and film, and of course your enthusiasm!
