Salmon fishing in SW British Columbia is world class. We fish for all 5 species of Pacific Salmon on 7 of the most productive rivers in the Province. The Fraser River and it's tributaries offer some of the best fishing British Columbia has to offer. Millions of Salmon begin their annual migration in early May and continue through until late November. The best fishing occurs between mid June and late November.

We begin the salmon season fishing for early summer run King Salmon Chinook. (Please see the species page for details) The second species to enter the river is the Sockeye Salmon, this is one of the most prolific runs of all, with up to 20 Million salmon returning. Pink salmon are the 3rd species to enter (odd years only, next run summer 2005). Pink salmon number of the millions, our last run in 2003 had over 28 million salmon return.* Book early for the 2005 season*. Next to enter the river is our Fall run of Kings ( largest run of Chinook) this fishery is mostly catch and release but many fish over 40 lbs are available. Once the Sockeye, Pinks and Kings are in the river the Coho (Silvers) and Chum salmon begin to arrive. October and November is probably 2 of the best months to fly and spoon fish for salmon. All of our rivers are full of salmon and Coho and Chum love to chase fly's, spinners and spoons.
As you can see, the Fraser Valley offers incredible fishing opportunities. Once the salmon begin to enter the river we fish for all species using many methods. We often fish for 2 or more species of salmon in one day, in mid to late October it is common to fish for and catch all 5 species of salmon. We fish for salmon using many methods, each member our team of professional guides has expertise in fishing the area with one or more methods. If your preferred method is Fly-fishing, we just happen to have 2 of the best fly fishing guides in the entire region. If you prefer to cast spinners and spoons, plunk for Kings or back troll plugs we have the expert guide for you.
