I've heard things about the Sooke river, havn't been there myself, so can't say much else, it's fly-fish only I believe as well.
Might be worth a shot. Welcome to the Island

I hear a lot of things about Elk Lake (mainly for bass though...), not entirely sure where it is. It sounds like a bunch of the lakes have just been stocked, so there ought to be a few trout around.

This is a very good tackle store in Victoria, they put out a report every few days:

They're good stuff, if you have a chance to get in there.
