I have visited Ole's at least 10 times since the 1980's. In that time the lodge has grown a bit from the original, but this is still the best lodge on the coast for the serious fisherman - someone who spends 10 to 12 hours on the water every day. Like me. It is located on legendary Hakai Pass and is mere minutes from fantastic fishing for springs and cohoes. There is also one other thing to keep in mind: the lodge is 20 minutes away from Odlum Point where the largest salmon ever taken on rod and reel was caught - a giant 88 pounds. You fish all day with your coolers full of food and beverages, then come back to the most wonderful cuisine for dinner. Meanwhile the crew, who are so helpful you can't believe it, take extra special care of your catch, cleaning, vacuum-packing,and freezing it for your trip home. In July and August the salmon runs are frequent and big. I cannot think of anything I would complain about at Ole's except after your time is up you have to leave and go home, so some other lucky fishermen can take your spot. But you can always come back next year. And so many guests do. Tip: Book early!
