| The small Cluxewe
River flows northwards into Broughton Strait just north of Port McNeill
on the east coast of North Vancouver Island.
Despite its relatively short length, the Cluxewe River supports
a sizeable run of winter steelhead and a few sea-run cutthroat.
Stocking of cutthroat trout has been initiated in the hope of developing
the fishery for this species.
Dolly Varden,
rainbow trout and coho salmon in the fall can also be expected.
Fishing is best at the Cluxewe River mouth and along the bushy banks
of the Cluxewe River. In even-numbered years, pink salmon fishing
at the mouth of the Cluxewe River is very productive - mid August
is best.
