Hey guys, I am just thinking out loud here and throwing some questions out that maybe someone can help me with.

I will hopefully be heading to Prince Rupert for work sometime in the coming months, not sure exaclty when as it depends on when i am scheduled to hit some of the other Towns/Cities/ Post-secondary schools in BC.

I was wondering what type of options were available if I wanted to stay an extra day and try to go fishing for Halibut or Salmon? I have fished lakes and rivers before for trout etc but I am a very novice fisher.

Most of the companies up there that I have seen on the internet have a 3 day minimum booking and rates are $1000 and up per day which is way out of my budget. Obviously gear, gas, pilot etc are expensive and need to be paid which makes sense.

Am I missing something here or is this just the price it costs to play the game?

Thanks for the help.
