| The Bulkley River is a major tributary of the world famous Skeena River system. From Houston to Hazelton, BC, it flows over eighty miles of fishable water. |
|
| We fish many different areas of the river by jet boat, searching for fish. Jet boats are used for transportation only and fish are caught by wading and casting. |
|
| The Maxwells have fished and guided on this river for over twenty years. |
