About Indian Bay
This is a 7 unit, semi-open, forested campground with a gravel boat launch and beautiful views over Francois Lake. There is lots of space at this site so it is good site for larger group gatherings. The access road is quite steep so may be prohibitive to some RV's/trailers. There are several species of fish available in Francois Lake for anglers.
Please be sure to purchase a fishing licence and consult the BC Freshwater Fishing Regulations Synopsis for limits, special regulations and closures: https://www2.gov.bc.ca/assets/gov/sports-recreation-arts-and-culture/outdoor-recreation/fishing-and-hunting/freshwater-fishing/region_6_skeena.pdf
