Hook Bay Float at Nahmint Bay

Hook Bay, next to Nahmint Bay on the Alberni Inlet, has a new float. It is a wonderful rest stop on the way to great ocean fishing about one third of the way down the Alberni Inlet. The previous float had lost its battle against the ravages of tide and time. After it was dismantled, it was soon missed by boaters who were used to a place to tie up at this great sheltered bay. If there was a Canadian Olympics of fishing, this would be a great spot, next to Port Alberni, Canada’s Ultimate Fishing Town of course! Nahmint is the home of the largest genetic strain of salmon in the Pacific.
