Fraser. The Fraser Valley offers five spectacular Salmon rivers: Fraser, Harrison, Chilliwack/Wedder, Chehalis and Stave rivers. There are also 195 lakes in the area, mostly within about a 45 minut drive. We can fish both with fly rods and with spinning gear. The Fraser valley also offers good trout fishing throughout the year. The Cutthroat trout are the dominat species but there are also good opportunities for rainbow, dolly varden and steelhead. There is also excellent giant white sturgeon fishing in area.

Fishing season. Fishing for salmon begins in June for king salmon and continues through until late November. Between August and November we fish for sockeye salmon, pink salmon, coho salmon and chum salmon. Sturgeon fishing season lasts round the year. The best season for cutthroat trout fishing is from October to April. Steelhead fishing is at its best from mid February to mid April. Dolly varden fishing peak is in autumn when salmon are spawning.

Fly Fishing, Spin Fishing. Fishing can be done with fly fishing gear or with spin fishing equipment and by wading or from the fishing boat. The professional fishing guide will pick you up from your accomodation in the morning and will take you to the river or the lake you want. He will show you the places, techiques and so on. In the afternoon when the fishing day is over he will bring you back to the accomodation.

Fishing Tackle. For fly fishing in British Columbia we recommend 12-15 foot double handed rods for lines #8-11 or single hand rods for lines 8-9 and suitable fly reels with good quality brakes. Intermediate or different sinking tip shooting heads are most used fly lines. Good flies are for example: Glo Bug, Green Spruce, Harrison Special, Pearlabou, Pink Passion, Pink Polar Shrimp, Pixies revenge, Leech, Rolled Muddler, Russian Fly, Woolly Bugger, Egg Suck’n Leech, Popcicle. Spin fishing rods should be long handled and medium-heavy action and recommended for 1-3 ounce lures. Most used lures are spoons. The hooks should be single hooks and barbless. Fishing guide has all fishing tackle needed with him including flies and lures.

Accomodation. Accomodation for fishermen is in hotel in Chilliwack town. The hotel is centrally located very close to fishing places and other services. Double bedroom, breakfast and lunch are included in price. There is a good restaurant and pub in hotel.

Travel Arrangements. Fishing trips to British Columbia will be arranged throughout the fishing season and the packages can be booked according to the client’s preferred dates subject to availability. Anglers will take international flight to Vancouver. The guide will be waiting on the airport and take you to the hotel by car. It's only about one and half hour's drive to Chilliwack.
