Columbia has rugged mountains with alpine meadows and large tracts of
forest that support bighorn sheep, mountain goats and a host of other

British Columbia has to offer, it will leave you with an appreciation of

The
Skeena River flows through Northwestern British Columbia emptying into the ocean
near Prince Rupert. Not only is the Skeena a great river for anglers, but also
is rich with history of the native settlements that traditionally relied on it's
abundance of salmon. The Skeena system has over 15 tributaries that offer
incredible fishing. A record 99 lb Chinook was caught in the Skeena as well as
the world record Steelhead. All five species of Pacific salmon migrate up the
Skeena as well as one of the world’s largest runs of wild Steelhead. The Skeena
system is surrounded by the coastal mountains and forests. These areas are
abundant in wildlife many relying on the rivers for a source of food.
