ACCESS

On foot

No boat needed

GETTING THERE: Short trail from the Kwisitis Visitor Centre parking lot in Pacific Rim National Park, ending at a cobble pocket beach; fish the flanking rock only on a low, small-swell day as waves surge over the boulders.
HOW IT'S FISHED: Casting jigs from the boulder edge
