Sooke’s world-class fishery is getting some attention from a popular fishing website.

FishingBooker recently named Sooke one of the best places to fish in Canada in a survey released this week.

Sooke took second place on the list of the eight best fishing destinations in Canada, behind Calgary. The only other B.C. entry was Haida Gwaii, which ranked fifth.
 

“Vancouver Island needs no introduction when it comes to its phenomenal fishing scene, and Sooke is no different. All five species of Pacific salmon pass through these rich waters, each with its own unique seasonality. If you don’t feel like timing your fishing trip, no worries – the halibut bite is always on.
