Fishing season starts with a Remote Spring Steelhead camp, or from our Fishing Lodge with Beautiful bright Steelhead showing up as early as the Third week in March. Fresh from the sea we call our spring run. Summer run Steelhead start arriving in the Skeena / Nass river in Late July, August and numbers only become stronger into October. They are strong, silver, and quick to take the fly during August, September, this is a great time for dry flies. It is not uncommon for steelhead to aggressively take the fly and fight by jumping and showing their true power. Until finally the snow flies and we pack up camp and leave them to reproduce. In the most remote Steelhead destination yet to be explored! Nass,Cranberry,Kiteen,Bell Irving,Meziadian we guide them all.
