BC West Lodge is a remote fly fishing destination on the lower Dean River – a legendary steelhead fishery – facing the Dean Channel and tucked in the shadow of Kimsquit Peak within earshot of the Dean River canyon.

We chase the hottest fish around: steelhead of superstar status and Chinook salmon that will make you think twice about testing your arbor knot. 

BC West is located less than a mile from the mouth of the Dean River in British Columbia.  

We’re the only lodge on the Dean where guests fish both below and above the canyon. 

We fish for steelhead and chinook salmon during our short 9 week season from mid June through the end of August.

All of our fishing is done using swung flies. The majority of our guests use two-handed rods, but that’s certainly not a requirement; single-handers have been extremely effective on the Dean for many years.

We consider our time on the Dean to be a real privilege, and we work hard to ensure that our operation does this river justice.
