From fishing licenses to guided tours, look here for everything you’ll need for your ultimate BC fishing experience.
Regarded for years as being the Salmon Fishing Capital of the World (although British Columbia is one of the finest salmon-fishing destinations you will encounter with Campbell River Port Alberni is bound to contest that), and it is true that here is where you are likely to catch the "big one". For purists, there is the added thrill of becoming a member of the Tyee Club, where strict regulations prohibit the use of engines (you must row) and light tackle is used to fish the famous Tyee Pool.
Virtually the entire coast provides good chances to catch salmon, halibut or ground fish. Fishing lodges are numerous, from budget-minded seaside motels with available rental and charter fishing boats, to the deluxe fly-in remote coastal lodges. The Hakai Pass, Queen Charlotte Islands, and northern waters near Kitimat and Prince Rupert boast excellent salt water fishing opportunities.
