World-Class Trout Fishing – The Columbia River is renowned for its trophy-sized Rainbow and Bull Trout, offering some of the best fly fishing in North America. The river’s clean, cold waters provide the ideal environment for these hard-fighting fish to thrive. If you're after Walleye, you've come to the right place! Using a fleet of flat-bottomed powerboats and drift boats, ChillBilly targets Walleye on both the Columbia and Kootenay Rivers. The best seasons for Walleye fishing are March–April and July–October, with generous limits allowing anglers to bring home plenty of fish.

Fishing with ChillBilly isn’t just about the catch—it’s about the experience. Enjoy the pristine beauty of British Columbia’s West Kootenays, where towering mountains, clear waters, and abundant wildlife make every trip unforgettable. The Columbia River’s water levels can be unpredictable, but ChillBilly’s veteran local guides know the river inside and out, ensuring your safety and success. We provide high-quality rods, custom hand-tied flies, and all the necessary gear so you can focus on fishing. We also handle river shuttles, making your trip seamless and stress-free.
