Babine River Fly Fishing Lodge

Babine Norlakes has been a family owned and operated fly fishing tourism business since 1949. We are located in northern British Columbia on Babine Lake and the Babine River which is part of the Skeena River watershed.



The Babine River is world famous for its fly fishing only section of the Babine River called Rainbow Alley, and for its world record size steelhead in the Class A Provincial Park called the Babine River Corridor Park. Rainbow Alley is accessed through our Steelhead Camp in the fall.

Smithers, British Columbia is where our packages begin and end but our camp is boat accessible with reservations prior to your arrival. The species of fish you can expect to find in the Babine River include Rainbow Trout, Bull Trout, Lake Trout, Cutthroat Trout, Steelhead, Coho salmon, Chinook.
