Walters Island sits off Kyuquot on the outer exposed coast of British Columbia, where a rock drop-off falls through depths of 330 to 1310 feet. Chinook Salmon hold here from May through August and Coho Salmon follow from June into September, both taken by trolling anchovy, herring, spoons, or hootchies along the structure. Lingcod work the rocky bottom with peaks in spring and again through summer, responding to metal jigs, swimbaits, and leadhead jigs worked close to the drop. Pacific Halibut range across the deeper edges from March through August, where drift jigging with leadhead jigs and swimbaits covers the sloping ground. The steep rock face also supports Canary Rockfish, Pacific Cod, Sablefish, and Pacific Ocean Perch along its deeper margins.
