Since 1871, sport fishing has been a part of BC's heritage. One thing that hasn't changed is the opportunity for exciting, memorable fishing vacations. The BC coastline is one of the greatest saltwater fishing destinations in the world, and many species of saltwater game fish await you. These include different species of our famed Pacific salmon , giant halibut , bottom fish, along with a terrific array of shellfish. The excitement of hooking and landing these fish brings anglers back to BC year after year.

What is the point of catch and release angling? Survival of the species. Carefully released Chinook salmon live and go on to spawn, increasing prospects for future generations. At Duncanby Lodge and Marina we want to recognize the efforts of all our anglers who successfully land and release a Tyee Chinook  Salmon with a brand new Islander fishing reel.  After all catch and release takes away none of the fun of the game of fishing.  So join in because the only thing better than catching a fish is coming back next year to catch even more.
