There’s nothing quite like salmon fishing off the idyllic west coast of Canada. Located in the northwest quadrant of Vancouver Island, the lodge at Walters Cove Resort is just minutes away from the most consistant saltwater fishing spots in the West Coast. Here, you’ll find hundreds of runs of Chinook and Coho salmon that traverse the “Salmon Highway.”

At the end of the day, enjoy a delicious meal prepared by our Red Seal certified chef. One of our favourites is the butterflied salmon cooked over an open fire in cedar planks. It's too good not to try!
TAKE HOME YOUR PRIZE SALMON
At the end of the day, we’ll take that best-catch photo you've been dreaming of, and the service doesn't stop there. After you're done for the day, we'll be happy to weigh everything, record the numbers, clean and fillet your catch, a process started the moment you step off the boat in order to ensure absolute freshness. Simply tell us how you want your fresh salmon cleaned and cut, and we’ll take care of the rest. Once your salmon portions are processed they'll be individually packaged and vacuum-packed. We’ll store them in our dedicated freezer for your convenience until you're ready to take them home. And unlike other fishing resorts, our fish processing services are absolutely free!
