Alaska salmon fishing in British Columbia waters!

Trophy sized Chinook Salmon (Kings), big wild northern Coho Salmon (Silvers) and large numbers of Halibut make Dolphins North fishing lodge a must for any sports fisherman. Moored in a mountainous inlet north of Prince Rupert, BC and south of Ketchikan, Alaska, the floating base camp is located on the Alaska / British Columbia feeding grounds of the legendary Nass and Skeena River salmon, where 30 to 50 lb. fish are common.

The daily fishing spots range from adjacent inlets to among the many offshore islands and reefs. Because of the sheltered location of Dolphins North, the weather will never                                                                                            decide if you can fish, only where you will fish.

Dolphins North fishing charter packages include fully guided fishing in Boston Whalers and custom built cruisers. We also provide cruiser suits, rain wear, rubber boots and your saltwater fishing license. We ask that you limit your personal luggage to 25 pounds because we'll need the room to ship your fish home!

You can check these boxes through to your destination with your luggage - they'll keep your catch fresh for 24 hours without opening.

We can also arrange to have your fish canned fresh or smoke, lox (cold smoked) or hot smoked, vacuum packed and shipped to you for an additional charge. Please allow 6 to 8 weeks for processing.

Salmon Fishing BC / Alaska Chinook salmon weigh in between 15 and 70 lbs. The average size caught by our guests over the past 15 years has been approximately 30lbs. Coho salmon run from 10 to 20 lbs. and average 13 lbs. Most of our salmon fishing is done with lightweight 11' custom rods with single action reels. We use herring for bait while slow trolling and motor mooching in the current near kelp beds where feeding Chinook and Coho salmon are chasing bait. Light tackle fishing for Northern Coho from late July to mid September is incredible. The ferocious fighting ability of these fish must be experienced first hand.

Fly Fishing

The Dolphins North area, rich in schools of baitfish, is the feeding ground for millions of migrating salmon. For the fly fisherman, the northern waters of British Columbia, Canada are an ideal fishing location to cast saltwater streamer flies while tied to the kelp beds.

Fly fishing for Chinook salmon is the most difficult, they take the longest time to land and their size and strength offers the ultimate test to the fly fishing angler. The plentiful and aggressive Coho salmon will take a fly more readily and fights on the surface, jumping and running: the perfect fish to take on a fly rod.

Pink salmon take a fly very well at the right time of the year and, like Coho, also fight on the surface. Dolphins North also offers fly fishing opportunities for 12 different types of saltwater bass and cod. E-mail us or call us toll free at 1-800-891-0287 to book your BC fishing trip with us today.

Halibut Fishing The dark, deep waters of northern BC are the haunts of halibut, one of the finest eating fish in the ocean. Ranging from 20 to 200 lbs., halibut are a challenge to boat but it's worth it to land one of these monsters because they are such a delicacy to eat. Halibut is fished for on the bottom using bait and heavier tackle. Call 1-800-891-0287 for more information or to book your Canada fishing trip!
