Haida Gwaii Sportfishing opened in 2026 on the traditional territory of the Haida Nation, accessible via 90-minute direct Air Canada flights from Vancouver to Sandspit. The operation runs small all-inclusive packages (maximum 4 guests per boat) from a private oceanfront lodge featuring queen beds, premium linens, daily housekeeping, a personal executive chef, and a hot tub overlooking the ocean. Fishing is conducted from a brand-new 30-ft Northwest Aluminum Craft equipped with twin 300 Mercury engines, radar, autopilot, and electric downriggers, targeting trophy Chinook salmon, giant halibut, lingcod, and seasonal albacore tuna using mooching, trolling, and jigging techniques. The lodge provides all meals, beverages, premium rain gear, professional tackle (Islander reels, G-Loomis rods, Shimano gear), and custom fish processing. The setting combines pristine waters—Skidegate Narrows, Cartwright Sound, Englefield Bay—with abundant wildlife including humpback whales, orcas, sea lions, bald eagles, and black bears. Peak season runs May through September, with albacore tuna extending the action into October.

Fishing methods and approaches
The fishing season at Haida Gwaii Sportfishing kicks off in April, with the arrival of salmon and the opportunity to target halibut and lingcod. This spring period, running through June, is characterized by improving weather and consistent action for these primary species. As summer progresses into July and August, the fishing intensifies. This is prime time for salmon, with peak runs offering the best chances for trophy Chinook and Coho. Concurrently, the Albacore tuna begin their migration, providing exhilarating offshore action from August through October. This late summer and early fall window is particularly special for anglers seeking high-speed chases in the open ocean.\n\nThe lodge operates from April through September for salmon, halibut, and lingcod, extending into October for Albacore tuna. The peak season for most species aligns with the warmer months, from May through September, offering the best combination of fishing opportunities and favorable weather conditions.
