Poll: Where Would You Settle Down IF You Were Retired And Just Wanted To Maximize Fishing Opportunities????

Everywhere is a compromise. Great fishing with full seasons mean isolation. Campbell river is the best I could think of but I would still be trailering to Hardy, Winter harbor, or Nootka. Wouldn't work for me personally as family, winter sports, and my Stillwater addiction will keep me in the interior. My boat stays up in Hardy June July and most of August.
 
I live in Nanaimo and it is quite central to most fishing spots on the Island. The fishing here has been strong all summer. One hour to Port Alberni where you can access Bamfield or even Uky by boat. French Creek is a short drive away and Campbell River is about an hour and a half.
