Port Alberni is one of the best places in British Columbia
to fish the Sockeye salmon. June 25-July 15 is the prime
time to get these tasty fish.
The early mornings in Port Alberni usually see 150-400
boats going out to get their favorite dinner. You may
think this number of boats must be insane to fish through,
but the inlet is 25 miles long and every fisherman
has his favorite spot.
Sockeye start in early June and continue through until
early August. Thats when the big Chinook start rolling
through. From mid August right into the beginning of
September, the Chinook salmon fishing can have the boat
very excited. The biggest flurry of action is the first
hour when it seems that half the inlet of boats have
fish on! Come experience the action!
