Skeena Spey is unique in the world of Canadian steelhead lodges. It combines guided fishing along with do-it-yourself (self-guided) angling all with the full support of a professional staff.

The Steelhead in the lower Skeena River are something to write home about. Down around Terrace, B.C. you get first crack at all of the fish headed to the most famous steelhead rivers in the world, like the Kispiox, Sustut, Babine and the Bulkey. They are still chrome-bright down here; there is no better recipe in the steelhead world for you to go get spooled by a silver bolt of lightning.

The sea-going rainbows of the lower Skeena start to enter this massive drainage in late July, and continue to enter right through the October and into early November. These will be the same fish targeted in the legendary tributaries upstream a month or more later, rivers regarded as the best in the sport. Fresh fish continue to accumulate in the river right through the end of October and into November.  Lower  Skeena River anglers get a shot at all of them.

The Skeena flows west from its many headwater tributaries, over 300 miles inland, until it reaches the ocean at Prince Rupert. Skeena Spey Lodge is only about 90 miles upstream just outside of   town of Terrace, British Columbia, Canada. The lodge’s location makes it exceptionally easy to get to, only about a 15 minute drive from the airport. The lodge has a diverse angling program with numerous beats,  5 different beats on the mainstem, as well as access to some of the smaller Skeena tributaries such as the Copper and Kalum.
