"For many years we provided world class sports fishing trips at the premier lodge (North Pacific Springs) located in Knight Inlet on the east side of Vancouver Island.

Finally it was time to move on. The early remoteness of our past operation was changing - it had been discovered. The business was sold, and the search for the ultimate and new operating area began.

The BROOKS PENINSULA offers the most prolific fishery I have ever seen.

Yes, it is a remote area; remarkably it is accessible. This is the West Coast's best kept secret.

The geological formation of the Continental shelf culminates in a venturi or funnel effect bringing the masses of pacific salmon as well as other species right to our front door.

The eventual destination of the particular species run simply does not matter.

They are channeled through our area en-route and provide some of the most spectacular angling options available to mankind."

OUR SEASON - WHEN SHOULD WE COME?

Our Season is from May first through until the end of September

Halibut!

June 1st - July 15th

This is our peak season for chicken and mid-size halibut.

Fish in the 15 pound to 100 pound range are prolific at this time of year and most important are close to shore.

Although Halibut may be caught throughout the season this is the time of year when they are closest to the lodge and generally most prolific.

We have taken many larger fish further offshore however the angler needs to understand the nature of the beast prior to making the decision to hunt a Halibut trophy.

This species can reach weights of 300 pounds or more, such a fish could be as much as 80 years old and as an aside these older fish often are as tough as shoe leather.

These old timers are our "Brood Stock" and although we know their address, we would prefer to target the smaller, younger and tastier fish.

For those serious trophy hunters who do not mind the challenge of light tackle and fair chase, we can design a trip catering to their needs.

During this early season we also are afforded the opportunity to catch a myriad of other bottom fish (White Fish) as well as early Chinook (King) Salmon.

The magnificent Chinook (King) Salmon

June 1st - September 15th

This is the time of year to target one of the world's most popular game fish.

During the summer months we catch most or all of the 5 pacific salmon species as well as Halibut, Ling Cod, Snapper and etc.

However nothing can match the power and cunning of a mature Chinook (King) Salmon.

We fish for these denizens of the deep using light tackle and endeavor to provide the angler with memories that will truly last a lifetime.

Coho (Silvers)

Ling Cod and Combination Bottom Fishing

August 15th - September 15th

While we still see the last of the trophy size Chinook (King) salmon in the area at this time of year it is the peak season for Coho (silvers) salmon.

We are allowed to keep the returning "hatchery" fish and are afforded the opportunity to enjoy multiple "catch and release" angling for the prolific runs of wild Northern Coho bottom fishing is also solid at this time of year.

This late summer fishing is often the most satisfying as the landscape starts to take on the fall colors and our prolific wildlife prepare for the upcoming winter.
