Mahatta
River
The Mahatta River flows westwards from O'Connell Lake into Quatsino
Sound on the northwest coast of Vancouver Island.
This remote
river has resident cutthroat and supports a good summer steelhead
run during June and July with coho salmon runs in the fall. Fishing
the bushy riverbanks is most productive.
Access to the river is over rough logging roads from the northern
town of Port Alice.
