About Davey Rock

Davey Rock is an outer-exposed pinnacle off Port Hardy, British Columbia, where rock structure drops through a wide range of depths from 25 to 670 feet. Pacific Halibut hold across this ground with a peak from March through August, while Lingcod, Chinook Salmon, and Coho Salmon fill out the calendar through the warmer months, Lingcod and Chinook peaking May through August and Coho from June into September. The rockier shallows and pinnacle edges also hold Quillback and Canary Rockfish, Pacific Cod, and Sablefish. Anglers drift whole herring, salmon bellies, or octopus over the deeper contours for halibut, and work metal jigs or swimbaits tight to the rock for Lingcod. Chinook and Coho respond to trolled spoons, herring, and hootchies along the exposed structure.
