Hi Everybody!
I'm a virgin to this site, and hope I am posting properly....Anyways, I am very new to Vancouver Island and am an avid fly fisherman. I've been out on the cowichan river a couple of times near the Duncan bridge, but have not had much luck. My father-in-law is coming to visit next weekend, and I would love to guide HIM around for once, and show him a few tricks from the Island Masters. Can anyone share some spots that might be productive at this time that aren't 2far a drive from Victoria? I'm not asking for your secret spots, just a good solid spot where we could be lucky assuming we know how to fish well, just not where! LOL! Thank you to everyone who may respond, and if anyone needs some insider info on Okanagan Lakes, let me know, as that is where I came from! Nice to meet all of you! Tight Lines!! ;)
Loki.

Hey LOKI,
I've been on the Island for about 1.5 years now, there's a lot of fihsing to be done. I know for a fact that almost all the stocked lakes are being stocked this week, s that could be well worth a shot. Elk, Shawnigan, Langford lakes are all stocked this week, and I'm looking to hit some of them myself.
As for specifically fly spots, cna't really say much. There's a great shop on Douglas street in Victoria caled Island Outfitters, friendly staff who know their stuff, give them a shot if you're around www.fishingvictoria.com
Have fun, and explore what the Island has to offer.

the folks at the store are a great resource to ask questions
