In March, water levels are low and temperatures are mostly below zero. The first Steelhead-Trout are running.

In April, fresh runs of Steelhead-Trout arrive from the ocean. At this time, fly-fishing from shore or drift-boat fishing is excellent! Big Chinook-Salmon are migrating up the Skeena River and are entering the Kalum River.

In May, Steelhead-Trout can still be caught! Fishing is good for giant Chinook-Salmon, especially in the Skeena River and its tributaries as well as in the Kalum River.

June is the time when the giant Spring-Salmon is entering the main stream of the Skeena River. High water and murky water may cause to focus on other tributaries or on river systems which show clear water conditions. Mid of June, the Kitimat River is rich of fresh silver Chinook-Salmon. Fishing on the Pacific Ocean in front of Prince Rupert or Kitimat for Saltwater-Salmon, Halibut and Red Snapper as well as catching Crab and Shrimp
