Discover Fishing at Duncanby 

Rivers Inlet is home to one of the most diverse recreational fisheries in the world. Our season begins in early June and runs through to the beginning of September. Our fishing grounds are right outside our door. No long runs to prime salmon and halibut fishing at Duncanby. We fish using a variety of techniques such as Mooching, Trolling, Jigging and Spin Casting. And the bonus? It’s all just minutes from the dock!

June and early July is the peak run of Chinook (Kings). Not only does Rivers Inlet have a run of world class Tyee’s during this time but it is also the highest number of migratory Chinook. As the season progresses the average size grows until the first few weeks of August when they are in the 40 – 80lb range.

Coho (Silvers) are our action fish. The “blue back” Coho run from late June to early August and the Northern Coho from early July into September and increase in size throughout the season.

We also see terrific returns of Pink and Chum salmon around mid July and increase in numbers and size through to early September. Halibut, Lingcod, Rockfish, etc are readily available all season.

Duncanby provides all of the necessary gear but if you have a trusty old rod or a favorite reel, feel free to bring it along.

Guests can choose to fish with a Guide for all or a portion of the trip or be self-guided. Regardless of which option you choose our professional Guides and dock staff are ready to help you maximize your time on the water.
