Thompson Okanagan

British Columbia is a place of remarkable culture and beauty. Against a backdrop of breathtaking landscapes are many exciting experiences to enjoy, including world class ski resorts and golf courses, countless festivals, unique artisans, museums and galleries, spectacular hiking opportunities, exclusive guest ranches, luxurious, soothing spas and hot springs and delectable cuisine. 

It seems fish like it in British Columbia...a lot. The lakes, oceans, rivers and streams that exist throughout the province are home to more species of fish than any other Canadian province. No wonder British Columbia is recognized as a world class fishing destination. All along a wild coastline and within tracts of true wilderness, anglers will find fabulous fishing opportunities. Freshwater anglers have a wide variety of fish to choose from, including steelhead and rainbow trout, while saltwater and tidal fishers can try for five different species of salmon, plus halibut, and many types of shellfish. If you love to fish, B.C. is your paradise.

With a network of roads, many used by the forest industry, most of these areas are easily accessible by car. Other more remote areas are reached by hiking trail, four wheel drive or aircraft.

Come join the thousands of anglers who return year after year to Merritt.
