The Lodge is set amongst the best fly-fishing streams and rivers on the west coast. Fly out via helicopter for spectacular trout fishing in May and June or catch Coho Salmon on a fly later in the season.  Freshwater fly-fishing for Salmon, Trout and Steelhead using the lodge's helicopters and jet boats for access is available from May to October. Our 'Catch & Release' Incentive: Should you wish to share your bounty with friends and family back home, our staff will gladly clean, pack and freeze your fish. For those special guests who are both lucky and generous, we offer a unique reward. If you catch and release a Chinook salmon over 50 pounds, the Lodge will offer you one free return trip the following season. We encourage guests to practice catch and release in order to help in the conservation of this precious resource. As part of this effort, guests make a conservation contribution of US$150 per person that goes towards the cultural access fee, local bear and stream conservation as well as a well-known killer whale adoption program. If you are torn between sharing the taste of salmon and caring for the environment, we suggest that you take home some delicious, fresh or smoked commercially-caught salmon. It will be our pleasure to have it ready and waiting at your departure gate at the airport.
