| The Quinsam
River is a small stream that flows northeast from Quinsam Lake and
enters the Campbell River approximately 2,5km upstream from its mouth
near the town of Campbell River on the east coast of central Vancouver
Island.
The fishable length of the Quinsam River is 10km in the lower
reaches, with point access from good trails leading off numerous
roads (Quinsam Road, and Duncan Bay and Elk River logging mainlines).
Fishing pressure
on the Quinsam River is heavy, but catch success is maintained by
a productive hatchery program. Winter steelhead, cutthroat trout
and fall coho account for the popularity of the Quinsam River.
