Exciting times at Queen Charlotte Lodge!  As we near the start of the 2019 season with our guests, the excitement in the air in Naden Harbour is amazing!  With the staff arriving last week everyone is eager to learn the QCL way of service and of course do some fishing.

Sunny weather has greeted us the first few days on the water and it is great to see bent rods and big smiles once again. Being able to help many of our staff into their first ever fish reminds you why you enjoy being out there! It’s hard to top the smile after your first Chinook.

On top of all those exciting times on the water the lodge was abuzz yesterday, awaiting the arrival of our new fleet of boats. It was a beautiful sight watching them come into the harbour and into the breakwater. Not a detail was missed in the design of these boats and they look amazing, all parked at the docks. 

After running many of our large aluminum boats over the past seasons I cannot wait to take these out on our grounds this summer!  In a future blog update I hope to update everyone on all the amazing features and how they are to fish out of.

We can’t wait to hear the helicopters on Friday and see more of those big smiles!!   Here’s to a great 2019 season!
