- We spent 10 days exploring the Kitimat River in British Columbia in search of king salmon. We found both the popular fishing holes, as well as more challenging to reach fishing holes. We only hooked one king during our stay. We also caught one pink during a guided drift boat fishing excursion, along with several trout. We hope this video will help you if you are looking for places to fish the Kitimat River.
Good times for sure! If you like our videos, please subscribe to our channel:

We hope you will join us soon as we head north to explore the Nass River and it's tributaries (Tseax, Kiteen, and the Cranberry) in search of king salmon.

Thinking of going there this summer and this helps plus there are a lot of local areas that are great. Just for me a super successful fisherman for salmon. First and more important thing is knowing how they travel.
Appreciate you watching and commenting!
I wish I could fish in Kitimat again in the future!
Beautiful River! Hope you get to visit her soon.
Beautiful scenery - great drone shots - most enjoyable to watch. Hope you kept some of the fish! Keep up the good work!
Thank you! We are eating some fresh fish along the way ;-). Had a jack Chinook for dinner last night - delicious! Thanks for watching!
Great video. I think we were camping at Radley Park same time you were. Cool drone shots
Thank you! Good times in Kitimat! Hope you enjoyed your time at Radley!
Some of my dad's relatives or friends from Kerimäki, Finland moved to Canada in the 70´s (?) and they live in Kitimat, Canada. I love Canada and I would like to visit there, because I love that kind of nature (lots of forest and mountains, like in Norway. Here in in Finland we don't have as much mountains, but we have so much forest and lakes). 😀
British Columbia is beautiful! Be sure to visit, Jasper, Lake Louise, and Banff if you get the chance to come over. Those Canadian Rockies remind me of the Alps!
Get here and go fishing
Wish I'd found this when I was working on the smelter a few yrs back did catch some but this would have been handy
Thank you. Definitely a good reference to the popular fishing holes.
What about fly fishing ?
The only king I hooked was at the power line hole on a black ant pattern tied onto a #4 Gamakatsu hook. Usually drifting flies for kings works great, but I didn’t have much luck on the Kitimat.
Oh yeah especially for coho
This river is a fantastic river to fish for Chinooks, Coho, Chum and Pink Salmon as well as Cutthroat’s, Dolly Varden and the incredible Spring Steelhead runs! Always best to hire a good local guide to show you the best regions for your target species and best methods to get hooked up! Always best to contact regional guides to get fishing reports and water conditions as this river can turn in the event of poor weather and spring snow freshets! Cheers to all that visit!
Well said! Beautiful river, but nothing like local guides and information to help with catching ;-)
