This stretch of the Big Baddeck is a dream for aged and young alike when it comes to fishing and swimming.  It is my spring and fall mecca. Keep an eye for fiddleheads along the river in May, the Strawberry trout run in June and the return of the salmon in October. Following photos are a 2 minute walk down the road from the tower complete with swimming, fishing and long well groomed hiking trail alongside the river.
