Queen Charlotte Lodge, Guide at Queen Charlotte Lodge
Your adventure awaits at Queen Charlotte Lodge, where you’ll step into a world like no other. Embrace the chance to explore the ancestral lands of the Haida, surrounded by diverse wildlife and wilderness like nowhere else. Known for premier salmon and halibut fishing, this location on Haida Gwaii offers an experience at the edge of the continental shelf in the northern Pacific. With abundant herring and needlefish, these waters promise thrilling encounters with large salmon and halibut throughout the season.
Queen Charlotte Lodge (QCL) opens the door to an extraordinary fishing journey. Against the backdrop of lush coastal rainforests and vibrant wildlife, anglers can choose from guided or self-guided fishing for salmon and halibut. Located at the beginning of the salmon’s migratory path, QCL’s fishing grounds offer unmatched opportunities to catch Chinook salmon and massive halibut, some reaching 200 pounds or more.
Whether you choose guided or independent fishing, QCL provides a first-class experience with top-tier gear and professional guides to make your fishing time memorable. Guided trips last around eleven hours, but schedules can be customized to suit your preferences. For those who prefer to fish solo, QCL’s self-guided boats come fully equipped with GPS, quality reels, and expert support from the QCL Fishmaster to ensure safety and success.
Renowned for delivering unforgettable fishing experiences, Queen Charlotte Lodge has built a loyal following. Whether you’re new to fishing or a seasoned pro, QCL is ready to help you make the most of your trip, from thrilling fishing grounds to luxury accommodations and 5-star dining. Just a short trip from Vancouver by private charter, the lodge’s remote location on the edge of British Columbia’s Pacific coast offers a mix of adventure and comfort that is rare to find.
The QCL experience goes beyond fishing. Start your day with fresh-brewed coffee, savor gourmet meals, and unwind at the end of the day at "The Bell Ringer" for a post-fishing celebration with friends. Enjoy optional activities like whale watching, exploring ancient Haida sites, and more.
With five lodge options offering comfortable West Coast charm, Queen Charlotte Lodge caters to every need. From fishing to relaxation, QCL provides a one-of-a-kind experience where every detail is taken care of—just arrive and let the adventure unfold!

Top-notch fishing lodge—exceptionally well-run with great food, fantastic staff, and unbeatable fishing. The journey there is an adventure in itself, but absolutely worth it! I've fished in many spots, but this place is a favorite. Already planning to return next year!

QCL truly delivers an elite fishing experience from start to finish! This was our second visit, and it surpassed the first. From the seamless check-in at the airport to our warm welcome by owners Paul & Cyn and their outstanding team, every detail was first-class. We had an incredible time fishing with our guide, Steve, who took us to his secret spots, helping us reel in a major haul. Lunchtime on the Driftwood trawler and weigh-ins at the Bell Ringer were unforgettable, and dining back at the lodge was a delight. The spa was fantastic, and the surrounding old-growth forest made for a peaceful hike. Every staff member went above and beyond, making this a well-organized, exceptional adventure!

Best holiday service we've ever experienced! Huge kudos to whoever trains the staff—top-notch! The area is stunning, and we had great fishing with our amazing guide, Jaxson, who went all out to find fish and made us feel safe on a rough water day. Comfortable boat, nice room, and the food… absolutely outstanding! If you don’t gain a few pounds here, you’re not doing it right!

From the moment you step off the helicopter, the experience is top-notch! The food was delicious, the accommodations were comfortable, and our knowledgeable guide helped us catch a wide variety of fish. We were fortunate to enjoy fantastic weather and calm waters as well. I highly recommend QCL!
