For the fishing enthusiast ...
Vancouver Island boasts world-class sportfishing opportunities. Whether you're an absolute beginner or seasoned fisherman, there are a number of sportfishing guides operating locally who can get you out there.
Spin-cast from the dock or trail a line behind your kayak or if you want to get serious, contact Dent Island Lodge or Salmon West Fishing Charters. They will arrange your professionally guided fishing charter for a tide or a full day, picking you up and returning you to Solstua West with your cleaned and bagged catch.
Fishing licences may be purchased at Dent Island Lodge, The Heriot Bay Inn on Quadra Island, River Sportsman or Tyee Marine in Campbell RIver.
"“…a greatly appreciated base from which to watch whales and grizzlies and to catch the biggest fish of the (2006) season - 48 ½ pounds!!"
