This is another one of those local secrets, known to the
inhabitants for years to produce exceptional angling results,
that has only relatively recently seen the development of
lodge facilities.
North by only 50-60 miles of the legendary Hakai Pass/Rivers
inlet area, these waters host the southbound schools of Chinook
Salmon from late June through till the end of August. Some
of these magnificent fish have been known to reach weights
exceeding 70lbs., making this area a trophy destination.
August and September produce excellent results for those
seeking the Northern Coho as they feed one last time before
heading up the rivers to their spawning streams. These magnificent
fighting fish, have been long noted for the acrobatic displays
of power, and have been known to reach weights exceeding 20
lbs. in the Milbanke area.
The area offers both well protected waters on the lea side
of several islands, or access to the open waters over the
Continental Shelf where huge Halibut migrate into the shallower
shoals during the late spring and early fall.
Wildlife is abundant in this area, and the many islands and
channels to be explored offer limitless access to the true
beauty of the British Columbia Coastline. Milbanke Sound sits
at the southern entrance to the Inside Passage, so anglers
will frequently see several of the many cruise ships piloting
their way north and south between Vancouver and the Glaciers
of Alaska.
