Leiner River
Last Next Return To Island Rivers
The Leiner River has a small summer and winter run of Steelhead and a great fall run of Coho when the fall rains are heavy.
To fish the waters of Leiner River beyond the mouth and estuary requires you to bushwhack from the Headbay Road.
The hike is worth it though as the fishing is good for native Cutthroats and Rainbows.
But if that is not enough to get you there then the wildlife will. You can expect to see Black Bears, Blacktail deer, Cougars ( maybe) and numerous birds and small animals, so come on over and see for yourself and bring your camera.
The City of Tahsis maintains a small site on the river, just outside of the Village of Tahsis.
A popular day use spot, it has easy access to the river, swimming holes and a small, sandy beach.
To reach this site from Gold River, you take the Head Bay road (Tahsis Road) and follow it almost to Tahsis where you'll see a campsite sign on the left at the junction of the access road.
