Fishing BC Presents - Bull Trout Safari and Dry Fly Fishing in Fernie, BC
Paul Samycia, Elk River Guiding, has been guiding out of Fernie since 2001. His unique trips for bull trout in the “shoulder seasons” are increasingly popular and bring anglers to the local rivers at times when few people are there to be seen. The water is cold, the air is sometimes colder, the but the fishing for voracious bull trout can be smoking hot, as good as the summer opportunities for cutthroat trout on dry flies. “That’s the really cool part about these waters — the size of the fish we get to angle for.”

Fly Fishing in Fernie BC
Freestone waters surrounded by the beautiful Rocky Mountains. Fernie in British Columbia offers the fly angler some of the world's finest fly fishing for pure strain Cutthroat Trout and Bull Trout.
Fishing BC Presents: Elk River Dry Fly with Kootenay Fly Shop
The Elk River flows directly through Fernie, B.C and is regarded as one of the province’s finest dry-fly fisheries. “When I was eight years old my dad asked me what I wanted to do, I told him I wanted to own a fishing lodge”, this is a dream that has stayed alive for Gord Silverthorne.
Gord operates Kootenay Fly Shop and Tight Lines Lodge in Fernie. The Elk River is home to an abundance of Westslope Cutthroat trout, known for their surface-oriented behaviour and willingness to eat dry flies.
The Elk is a 220-kilometer long freestone river that flows rich with nutrients, growing Cutthroat over 20 inches long. Bull Trout are the apex predator of the Elk, and are plentiful throughout the system and its tributaries.
Gord’s passion shines through in his work, he is an advocate for hiring young anglers as shop employees to gain the knowledge that transitions them into guiding. Fernie is a prolific fly fishing destination that attracts anglers from across North America each season.
“The quality of the experience here is second to none”
