Squamish River:
The Squamish River will have Steelhead and Bull trout from mid March until early May, then Coho and Chum Salmon starting in early October thru until November 15 – 20. This is catch and release. This is a gorgeous place that offers a high quality outdoors experience. It’s walk n wade here, and we supply the best equipment available. Not suitable for ages under 16 as swift water flows put them at risk. Children are best to be on our boats.
Upper Pitt River:
The Upper Pitt will be a great option once we hit later May and continues through until early/mid July. We do not fish here outside of these times. This river is accessed only by jet boat or helicopter and thus offers a very quiet setting with awesome scenery and flyfishing for sea run Dolly Varden that go over 10 lbs.
Vedder-Chilliwack River:
Steelhead season starts early February. The best fly fishing happens here in March – April. Gear fishers dominate this river mostly but we do get the odd one on the fly.

Interior Lakes
Fly Fishing Report
A very good option for May – June. We have spent about 2 weeks on these lakes this May and were blown away by some very impressive fly fishing for Rainbow Trout in the 18 to 24 inch range. A load of fun on 4 & 5 weight fly rods! Chironomids in sizes 10 – 16 are the mainstay. Use chromies in various colours. But when they aren’t biting chromies try dull dark colours.
For all the best chironomid fly patterns visit FLYGUYS.NET
We do provide single day trips or multi day fly fishing packages to some very productive lakes just 3 hrs from Vancouver. If you go without a guide be well stocked with midges in all colours in sizes 8 to 16. Other flies to keep in your box include Damsels, Dragons, May flies, micro leeches, bead head wooly buggers in black, green, brown and maroon.
» We offer fly fishing lessons for Rainbow trout too. Our experience will give you the edge!
Call Brian at 1-604-864-5445 to inquire about a lake fly fishing trip.
