I have the opportunity to join a couple of old frinds on a trip to the Skeena area this year. The first week of September would be spent jet-boating around the area, with base camp at Ferry Island.At first this sounds like a trip of a lifetime, not to be missed. But before I committ the time and money to it, I want a better sence of what I am in for. I know nothing about the area.
So, the trip would be the first week of September. Ferry Island is the destination, and I assume the boat stays in the water there. I don't know what can be accessed easily from there though.
My interest is in steelhead on a trip like this. No real appetite to fish salmon up there. Though I'm sure that would still be fun, but I don't really need to go all that way for good salmon fishing.
Can some of you with experience shed some light on how our trip lines up with the various runs, and also what waters can be easily fish from Ferry Island? Thanks.
