Rugged Point Lodge is located in Kyuquot Sound on the northwestern shore of Vancouver Island, BC, minutes away from the continental shelf, the Salmon Highway and our inshore fishery. Salmon, halibut and lingcod are only a cast away.
Salmon Fishing
- Rugged Point Lodge can get you to the best salmon fishing on the west coast of Vancouver Island.
- We fish for Chinook at Spring Island, only two miles from our dock. Kyuquot Ridge is also nearby, featuring reefs, rockpiles and gravel bars where salmon swim year-round. We can also get you to the “Salmon Highway” – 50 Fathom Edge – where migrating Chinook first head inland on their way to their home rivers.
- Our guides use a variety of techniques in different seasons to help you hook into British Columbia’s most prized catch.
