Is there a closer on the Little Campbell River?
I'm looking to spend a couple afternoons there while I'm om my holidays

You will need to search and call in for in season closures here;

Here are the standard regs; 

Upstream of 12th Ave: No fishing; no fishing between two white triangular fishing boundary signs downstream to pedestrian bridge at the
foot of Stayte Road, Aug 15-Sept 30
Downstream of 12th Ave: No Fishing Apr 1-June 30, No Fishing from 21:00 hours to 05:00 hours each day, Aug 1-Dec 31

Tidal boundary is;
Campbell River: Burlington Northern Railway Bridge


What I can tell you is there is very little water in there right now.  And lots of mosquitos.

Thanks for that

I would say it's closed. All East Coast rivers up to Campbell river closed a long time ago (July 1?). Only ones open (that I can name off the top of my head) are the Big Qualicum, Puntledge, and Campbell itself. Anything north/west of Port Alberni is still open, but I'm betting they'll close that soon with this hot spell coming up.

Sorry, but I was asking about the Little Campbell River in South Surrey .

Ah that makes sense. Sorry about that. Surprised they haven't closed the rest of the island and mainland down yet... I'm kind of expecting it with this heat wave coming.

[RalphH]

There's a Cambell River on the Island and it's open. Is there a Little Campbell too?

[rfelling]

Yes sir but the two rivers get confused between the one on the jsland and the one in Surrey

[hrenya]

[Rodney]

Or have the courtesy asking the band first before accessing so you don't ruin it for others? No?

[RalphH]

there's a sort of estuary lagoon upstream of the BN bridge, as far as I know the north shore is a public park.
