The Rugged Point Lodge Difference

At Rugged Point Lodge, fishing isn’t just a business—it’s our way of life. Our owners, Matt and Kristy Guiguet, have built this lodge on passion, tradition, and fishing expertise. Their dedication to the lodge and its guests is unparalleled.

For Kristy, Kyuquot Sound is more than home—it’s her heritage. Her family has been in the area for over 90 years, and she grew up on her parents’ commercial fishing boat, the Northern Bounty. For Matt, fishing in British Columbia has been a lifelong pursuit, from summers spent bucktailing in Bamfield to guiding across Haida Gwaii, Tofino, and Gold River. Together, they’ve created a lodge where every guest feels like family.

When they’re not on-site hosting and guiding, you’ll find them travelling across the Pacific Northwest, meeting anglers at trade shows and sharing their passion for fishing in Kyuquot Sound. Their personal touch and deep connection to the region make Rugged Point Lodge more than just a fishing destination—it’s a second home for every guest.

Rugged Point – Every Angler’s Favourite Halibut Fishing Lodge!

March 24, 2022/in Kyuquot, Ocean Fishing, The Lodge

When it comes to the best halibut fishing lodge on the West Coast – Rugged Point Lodge is THE halibut destination!

A firm, white fish with a mild and delicious flavour, halibut is a very popular catch on the West Coast of BC. And, because no fishing trip to the Pacific coastal waters is complete without a big catch of halibut, Rugged Point Lodge is THE halibut fishing lodge of choice.

And it just doesn’t get any better than on scenic Kyuquot Sound on the beautiful west coast of Vancouver Island. The simple fact is that these waters offer some of the most productive and fertile halibut fishing ground anywhere.

Did you know? At our premier halibut fishing lodge…

… all of our guests catch their limit of Halibut! This is why with complete confidence we can assure you that a halibut fishing trip to Rugged Point Lodge is sure to be your angling adventure of a lifetime.

We offer an experience of breathtaking and pristine Kyuquot Sound that is truly unparalleled. We take you to the best fishing. Our guides help you explore the most productive of halibut fishing grounds – sandy flats, reefs, and rugged bottoms. During the winter months, halibut spawn the deep water. The rest of the year, they stick to their migratory patterns, feeding on plentiful smaller fish, crabs, and other invertebrates. They travel areas where they can find food most easily – where fish and crabs tend to hide.

We fish for halibut in waters that range from 25 feet to 2500 feet deep! But, don’t expect it to be easy – a halibut caught and pulled from a hundred feet down doesn’t submit without a fight! No matter the size, the halibut is a very strong and powerful fish. Even a smaller halibut of 20 pounds or so is powerful enough to tear the line from your reel. This incredible strength just means you’ll enjoy the extra satisfaction and exhilaration of landing such a brute. You’ll be exhausted – in the best possible way!

Store your catch! When you package it properly, frozen halibut will last for many months after your trip.

Halibut fishing at Rugged Point Lodge

What is it about Rugged Point Lodge that makes halibut fishing so uniquely enjoyable? There’s the otherworldly location, of course. And, the best fishing grounds available. But, even more importantly, our fishing guides = your greatest catch!

Our expert team of Rugged Point Lodge guides, licensed and fully trained, provide the most in-depth local experience and knowledge. They bring real-world know-how to halibut fishing. Our guides understand the best places and ways to find these fish, the largest flatfish on the planet.

In a nutshell, here’s why we’re the best halibut fishing lodge:

All of our fishing trips are fully guided. Expert fishing guides, with a ton of local knowledge and expertise, know where and how to go deep in pursuit of halibut.
Our guides know numerous productive fishing spots ranging from 130 – 300 ft deep.
While halibut fishing, we anchor. All of our fishing boats are equipped with a third downrigger for a chum bag, two-speed reels and top of the line Okuma 6’ 6” rods. We provide all the gear you need!
Our goal is always to catch the best halibut possible within the legal size limits.
The local waters are among the most consistent saltwater fisheries in this part of the world – almost every trip offers a great catch!
We expect you to go home ready to fill your empty freezer!

Nestled in the scenic and beautiful West Kootenays, near Castlegar and Trail BC, the Columbia River is HUGE with almost 30 kilometres of untouched river to fish. From the Hugh Keenleyside damn on the Arrow Lakes to the border with the US. The Columbia is full of trout, the landlocked descendants of the Steelhead that used to travel north up the river into Canada before the construction of the Coulee Dam in 1942.

The Columbia River is open for fishing year-round with two incredible fisheries on the river: Rainbow Trout and Walleye. Rainbow is a native species to the river and the Walleye is an invasive species and both can be caught year-round.

Anglers can look forward to fishing for most trout sized anywhere between 16” -22”, with some as big as 30” or more!

Choose your adventure – try your hand at landing incredible Rainbow Trout or opt for a spectacular Walleye fishing charter.
