Get your fishing on on Langara Island

One of the most rich marine life environments on our planet is located at Langara Island. It is located on the west coast of British Columbia slightly south of Alaska. One reason Langara Island Fishing is so abundant with marine life is because it is right on the edge of the continental shelf. A mere 2 miles of the coast and the shelf drops off into the open ocean that reaches thousands of feet deep. This, combined with nutrient rich waters and abundant kelp beds provide a perfect environment for marine life. There are abundant krill, shrimp, needlefish, herring, and much more. But the real reason people come fishing at Langara Island is because of the salmon. All 5 major types of pacific salmon migrate through the waters of Langara at some point throughout the year. When the salmon reach Langara Island they are in peak condition. One can find Coho of 20 or more pounds and Chinook of 70 or more pounds. There is no other place in America where salmon congregate in such numbers. The reasons people go fishing there are obvious, there are many fish there, and consequently, a lot of fish are caught. There is great consistency in fishing, all the way from May to September. There is a large variety of not only salmon, but also other fish and marine life. All of the lodges on the island are also very conveniently located with the fishing area being less than 20 minutes away, so people can come back to the lodges and relax at any given time. And on top of all that, the waters are fairly calm year round.
