Never been to Bella Coola either and I used to live in Williams Lake. I have heard there is some good fishing up there many times.
Zip how long ago did you live in the puddle. I lived there most of my life there and moved to the island 5 1/2 years ago.
Preppy you got to come out to the west coast for the big waves.
Canadian98 Some friends of mine were just in Bella Bella Didnt catch any fish but said the prawning and crabbing was fantastic.
