For just such a setting, there may be no better place to go than the Queen Charlotte Islands in British Columbia, Canada.

For the avid angler, there are few experiences that can match the thrill of landing a trophy fish while surrounded by beautiful scenery and pristine waters. For just such a setting, there may be no better place to go than the Queen Charlotte Islands in British Columbia, Canada. Because the Queen Charlotte Islands lie within the influence of the North Pacific Current, temperatures remain moderate all year, providing a perfect habitat for many species of sport fish and an incomparable environment for the fishermen who pursue them.

Game fish abound in this northern wonderland, with many people flocking to catch themselves a King salmon, one of the main attractions. These much sought-after fish thrive in these waters, and can weigh anywhere from 30 to 100 pounds. To catch one of these incredible fish, also called a Chinook or spring salmon, is a monumental occasion for any seasoned angler.

Coho salmon, sometimes called silver salmon, are another sport favorite. Additional species common to the area include red snapper and ling cod, and another great attraction is the abundance of halibut. The waterways around the Queen Charlotte Islands also harbor such aquatic delicacies such as Dungeness crab, one of the most important species of crab in the Pacific Northwest.

Between the incredible fishing and the idyllic environment, it can be frustrating to have to worry about finding the perfect location to spend your time as well as obtaining gear and bait. Because of this complexity, many people choose to hire guides through a Queen Charlotte Islands charter boat. This option allows everyone from beginners to regular fishermen to focus on relaxation, while they take care of all else. Many times this includes your bait, gear and outerwear; rather than worrying about weather and water conditions, you can simply rely on experts to take you where you need to go and assist you in catching the fish of your dreams.

Contracting with a professional charter company is not just beneficial for seasoned anglers looking to save time. Staff of these boats are able to provide information to beginners regarding licenses and how to obtain the proper credentials before your trip. Transportation during your trip is often included and after you've caught your prize fish, its processing and shipping is likely to be facilitated through them as well.

Whether guided or solo, a fishing adventure in the Queen Charlotte Islands of British Columbia is an experience no true fisherman should miss.
