RISC 2022 season is underway…
Fly direct on SEAIR SEAPLANES
Barbara fishing solo landed a 40 pounder near ‘The Wall’.
Yes, it’s all happening. We are jubilant that our Sportsman’s Club 2022 fishing season is underway. Simon & Stephanie are in Rivers Inlet where they have been involved in the fishing lodge buildings being towed from winter to summer moorage & now rig-up starts in earnest. Our employees are excitedly starting their fishing season’s work at the Sportsman’s Club, & our guests are looking forward to some great adventures on the water fishing for the bright & shiny salmon along with halibut & lingcod. The humpback whales will be back with us soon…
I can’t thank Cathy, Simon & Stephanie enough for all their hard work in getting the 2022 season underway. It’s a far cry from 1984 when I prepared for the first Rivers Inlet Sportsman’s Club fishing season…Today, we have satellite communications, but then we just had radio telephone…
Another important difference in 2022 is that all our guests have the choice of flying directly to the lodge on luxury Seair Seaplanes’ Cessna Caravans. Yes, we have arranged for all guests to travel along the spectacular BC coast this way & arrive at the Rivers Inlet lodge in about 90 minutes. Not all Seair seaplanes will leave the docks at the Vancouver Airport South Terminal at the same time, so our booked guests will be informed of their Seair flight time in due course.
In the past few days, I’ve had the opportunity to take a few of the lodge telephone calls from booked guests to our corporate office in Campbell River where Cathy Drew is the manager. It’s wonderful to chat & reminisce with past guests & chat with guests new to the lodge. Peter from Germany is coming back, as is Norm from Seattle who is bringing his son & twin grandsons. Johnny from Alabama added some sparkle to my day as did Steve from California & Lyn who is bringing his two sons.
There’s been some movement in the 2022 bookings, so if you haven’t booked your fishing trip yet, call Cathy at 250-923-2689 or email info@riversinlet.com & she’ll fix dates for you. Remember, Father’s Day is coming up…
Best wishes from Barbara on behalf of Simon, Stephanie & Cathy.
Hal with his bright, fresh from the open ocean salmon.
