Our 5 salmon fishing rivers, timing and species

Squamish river salmon fishing

 

50 minutes north of Vancouver BC

Pink Salmon: July 15 to Sept 1(odd years only)

Chum & Coho Salmon: Oct 1 to late November(every year)

Salmon fishing trips on the squamish river

Salmon fishing on the Squamish is one of our more popular guided trips. We believe this is due to the amazing fishing and abundance of amazing scenery. You are surrounded by glacier capped mountains that rise to over 7,000 feet, forests and the sighting of bears, elk and bald eagles. Then there's the fishing. It's often extremely productive especially for the Pink Salmon that return in huge numbers.

We promote fly fishing here for the Pink Salmon. Don't worry if you're a newbie. We are very good at teaching you the basics of fly fishing. For Coho and Chum Salmon the methods are casting spoons, float fishing with jigs and fly fishing.

Squamish River trips are primarily walk and wade. Make sure you are able to walk for up to 20 minutes. We will be taking you into the wilderness where the top salmon fishing spots are waiting for you.

All tackle, waders/boots are provided if required at no additional cost.

Vedder - chilliwack river salmon fishing

 

Trips depart from Mission BC, 60 min east of Vancouver

Pink Salmon: Early Sept to late Sept(odd years only)

Coho Salmon: Mid Sept to mid Oct

Chinook Salmon: Mid Sept to mid Oct

Salmon fishing trips on the Vedder River

Salmon fishing on the lower Vedder River requires our jet boats to access where it meets with the Fraser River. This location offers very productive salmon fishing. Schools of salmon will congregate in this area either to take a break as they head upstream on the Fraser or stage to head up the Vedder River. So at times there's a lot of salmon in this area.

The salmon fishing methods we use here are mostly casting lures or twitching jigs. You will be fishing from the boat so fly fishing only works when there's 1 or 2 guests on board.

After catching some salmon why not try going after a giant Sturgeon on the Fraser River?

All tackle, waders/boots are provided if required at no additional cost.

Stave river salmon fishing

 

Trips depart from Mission BC, 60 min east of Vancouver

Coho Salmon: Early October to early Nov

Chum Salmon: Early October to Nov 10

Salmon fishing trips on the Stave River

Salmon fishing on the Stave River requires a 15 minute jet boat trip from Mission BC. The Stave is another tributary of the Fraser River that provides excellent salmon fishing in the Autumn. This river receives huge returns of Chum Salmon plus some decent numbers of Coho. Expect to see hundreds of Bald Eagles here in the Fall as they feed on salmon carcasses.

The salmon fishing methods we use here are mostly casting lures or float fishing with our hand made jigs. However fly fishers will hook salmon as well. The Stave offers places to fish from the shore at times but fishing from the boat is most common.

After catching some Chum salmon why not try going after a White Sturgeon on the Fraser River?

All tackle, waders/boots are provided if required at no additional cost.

Harrison river salmon fishing

 

Trips depart from Harrison Mills BC, 80 min east of Vancouver

Coho Salmon: Early October to mid Nov

Chum Salmon: Early October to Nov 27

Salmon fishing charters on the Harrison River

Our Salmon fishing tours on the Harrison River requires the use of our jet boats to access the many gravel bars on the river. The Harrison River is a main tributary of the Fraser River within the Fraser Valley region. This is an amazing place for freshwater salmon fishing and Bald Eagle viewing. Plus the scenery is top notch!

The Harrison receives rather large returns of Chum Salmon plus good numbers of Coho Salmon and Chinook.

The salmon fishing methods we use on the Harrison are mostly casting lures or float fishing with our own custom made jigs. Fly fishing for salmon also works here. Fishing from the shore is the preferred method here.

All tackle, waders/boots are provided if required at no additional cost.

Fraser river salmon fishing

 

Trips depart from Mission or Harrison Mills BC

Coho, Chinook, Pink, Sockeye Salmon

OPENINGS ARE TBA

Salmon fishing charters on the Fraser River

All Fraser River Salmon fishing tours require the use of our jet boats to access the many gravel bars on the river. We mostly fish in the Chilliwack area but sometimes closer to Mission. We know all the hot spots and a few secret spots too.

The Fraser has big runs of salmon. However due to poor management skills by our Department of Fisheries openings for species of abundance are becoming scarce in the last few years. We are working hard to end this.

The salmon fishing methods we use on the Fraser are mostly 'bar fishing' with spin-glows. Casting lures can work at times too. Fishing from the shore is the preferred method here.

All tackle, waders/boots are provided if required at no additional cost.
