Saltwater fishing is one of the Comox Valley’s major attractions and charters are available from Courtenay and Comox. Campbell River has been a hot spot for saltwater sport-fishing for more than a century and is known as the historic Salmon Capital of the World. Shore fishers can check out Campbell River’s Discovery Pier, Canada’s first saltwater fishing pier. Quadra Island is another renowned fishing destination. Saltwater fishing excursions to Nootka Sound are offered from both Gold River and Tahsis.
Big trout, feisty steelhead, and incredible salmon runs lure freshwater anglers to this region with more than 200 lakes, rivers, and streams. Mount Washington offers fly-fishing tours in high-alpine lakes and rivers. Some of the best fly-fishing opportunities are along Highway 28 between Campbell River and Gold River. Guides, boat rentals, backcountry and helifishing tours are available
