Lower Dean River Lodge operates two steelhead flyfishing lodges on the twenty miles of river above the Dean River canyon; each utilizes a different section of the fishery. Our Main Camp, in operation since 1962; accommodates nine guests and is situated approximately eight miles from salt water. It comprises a dozen buildings including six clean two-person guest tents with wood floors and plumbing, a central building for dining and relaxation, a double showerhouse with indoor plumbing, walk in cooler, and a generator building which provides 110 volt power throughout the camp. From this location we fly fish twelve to fourteen miles of the river above the Dean River canyon which is two miles from the river mouth.

The DEAN RIVER begins as a small stream high in the swamps of the Chilcotin plateau of British Columbia's interior. It flows north through the well-known wild Rainbow trout fishing area around Nimpo and Anahim Lakes then turns westward at Anahim Peak and begins it's turbulent descent to the Pacific Ocean. Natural barriers in this middle section concentrate a large summer run of Steelhead (sea run Rainbow trout) in the lower reaches of the river from June through September. A canyon near the mouth of the river keeps the weaker salmon out of the system. Only Steelhead, Chinook and Coho get through in significant numbers. Chinook Salmon enter the river through June and July and Coho Salmon enter late August through September.
The Fish
Dean River Steehead start to enter the river in June and Ver más...continue to run in waves throughout the season. The average fish is 10-12 lbs. but some reach 25-30 lbs. They take the fly readily from the time spring runoff ends in mid June to the end of the fishing season on September 30.
Dean River Chinook enter the river in June and July and can reach 60 lbs. These powerful wild salmon can be caught on flies and are a challenging quarry in the fast flowing Dean.
Northern Coho salmon enter the Dean in late August and September and can reach 20 lbs. Due to DFO's terrible management of the salmon resource we require that all salmon be released.
The river opens June 1 and the area we fish is "FLY ONLY" from July 15 to season's end September 30. The Steelhead fishery is CATCH & RELEASE throughout the season.
