Since the mid-70's I've gone up to Skeena country every October without fail to chase steelhead. But during all those years, I've never fished below Terrace
Next year I'm thinking of going from Port Hardy to Prince Rupert by boat, fishing my way north, then in mid-August, navigating up the Skeena River and doing some bar fishing for those early fall fish.
While doing some keyboard time to get some info on the lower Skeena I stumbled on a website called Misty Moorings.
Pretty amazing site!
Someone took the time to show all the navigational markers in the lower Skeena, all the way from Port Essington up to Terrace. Even the rapids are marked!
So I'm all in on steaming up the Skeena in my salt chuck boat next August!!!!
I mean if paddle wheel steamers made it all the way up to Hazelton in the early 19th century, surely I can make it up there in a 21 footer with a 150 Hp Honda, right?
Check out this Misty Moorings site---it's amazing! Gotta love the inter-web!~
