Here are the main reasons we are simply the best lodge to come on a world-class fishing trip targeting King/Chinook & silver/coho salmon, halibut, & lingcod: <...>

The sun has set on another record season at RISC! Our incredible staff this summer that make your experience so exceptional at our fishing Lodge, have all now settled back into their regular lives, pursuits, & travels. We are paired back down to the off-season sales/marketing & operations team, in our winter offices in various locations. We have already made a record number of bookings for our 2025 season, so it is exciting times! <...>

Ben, Mickey and I were with guide Zach near the Wall at almost the exact spot I had reeled in a 32 pounder one hour before.  In both instances we were using a silver spoon.  It took more than 30 minutes to bring in the 52 pounder all the while Zach kept yelling  “KEEP THE ROD TIP UP MICKEY!!! ” <...>

I have been to The Sportsman’s Club many times over the years, with my trusty partner Lorna, but this was the first trip with my youngest son Ash. He lives in the UK so this trip was like going to another world for him, a trip to Jurassic Park! <...>

Zach head guide has a store of great photos taken all season...These are ones from Aug 23 - Halibut, Chinook & lingcod - All delicious & recipes can be found here on our website. <...>

Jon & Wendy travelled from New Zealand for their August fishing adventure.  Afterwards Jon wrote, 'We had  an epic fishing experience this year as always. I think we caught Chinook at every key spot around the lodge. <...>

Rivers Inlet Sportsman's Club guests take their fish (wrapped in foil lining) from the lodge in an airline approved waxed box. One of these photos shows the boxes of fish still frozen arriving in Amsterdam. <...>

Soon after arrival, all guests attend the safety & fishing clinic. Our experienced guides answer any questions about the gear & equipment in the 17' Stingers. Stingers are for unguided guests & other guests either afternoons or evenings when not guided. <...>

Over the years, guests to the Rivers Inlet Sportsman's Club have arrived from places around the world. They've learned of our fishing lodge in many ways but it's often by 'word of mouth'. There's a twist to these guests because Barbara met the leader of the group on safari in S. Africa about 20 years ago. He hails from eastern USA & has been coming regularly to the Sportsman's Club since then.  <...>

Barbara chose the Rivers Inlet to build her destination fishing lodge because of the BIG salmon. That was 40 years ago & the Tyees keep coming into the dock at the Sportsman's Club. <...>

Guests have caught so much halibut & salmon so they went lingcod fishing. These adventures turned out to be very successful - think about 'crispy lingcod tacos'...Yummy! <...>
