We are passionate about the Lower Skeena Region and have the most highly qualified and knowledgeable guides in the area.
At Nicholas Dean Lodge, you can fly fish a different river or location every day, even if you come out multiple times in one year. Our knowledgeable guides can ensure the experience is different each time you go out, whether you’re fishing the Skeena River, its tributaries, Nass tributaries, or remote coastal rivers for steelhead and Pacific salmon. Located in Northwest British Columbia’s coastal rainforest, we offer our guests one of the longest fishing seasons of any lodge in North America.
This is one of the world’s most beautiful locations, with rugged mountains climbing more than 10,000 feet straight out of the ocean, snow-capped peaks, towering cedar trees that are hundreds of years old, and dense rainforest, some of the last rainforest in North America, teeming with wildlife from bald eagles to the rare Kermode or Spirit Bear.
With the wild salmon and steelhead population we also offer a diverse range of species to target, each one requiring a different presentation, style and strategy. Depending on the time of year, you decide the adventure you want based on the species you’re targeting. Nicholas Dean Lodge offers exclusive custom fly fishing adventures for steelhead on wet or dry flies, Coho salmon in fresh water or saltwater estuaries, Chinook and Sockeye in fresh water, trout and char, and pink or chum salmon.
We have highly qualified fly fishing guides and the most knowledgeable fly fishing service available in the area. Our policy is one guide for two clients, and we find destinations where you may not see another angler or person all day on the river. Your guides provide the tackle you need throughout the day, and the lodge can provide fly fishing equipment such as spey rods and single-handed fly rods.
Once you’ve experienced your own fly fishing adventure at Nicholas Dean Lodge, you’ll know why we’re as passionate as we are about the Lower Skeena region.
