You'll be fishing on a 27' Kingfisher Escape boat that accommodates up to 5 guests. This fishing vessel features a fully enclosed cabin with heating and lots of comfortable seating space. The boat is powered by a 300 HP Yamaha engine and reaches the speed of 40 knots. Besides modern navigational electronics, the boat also has a private toilet.

Our group had very little experience of fishing but we had a really great afternoon and caught plenty of Salmon! Thanks to Andrew for making our trip so fun!
I caught some salmon and halibut. Andrew is a super rad dude who really knows the local waters very well. 
caught our limit of Salmon and the biggest halibut you can legally keep. Andrew is a great guide.
Thanks Andrew for the great day! Was a young inexperienced group who needed lots of guidance. Your patience and experience was consistent and created long lasting memories for all! Oh ya 100lbs of fish helps too. Highly recommend Slacktide Charters.

Andrew was amazing! Made sure everything went smoothly and that we got everything we could have wanted out of our day. He’s extremely knowledgeable and really made the experience a 10/10. I would recommend him to anyone wanting to have. Fantastic day of fishing!

4 hour is not a long trip considering you travel time is about 2 hours, so you only get 2 hours of fishing, however Andrew really know the place we caught salmon, lincod, sea bass and rock fish. Kids had the best time ever! 100% would recommend Andrews boat and fishing experience but maybe doing a few more hours.
Andrew, my family had a fantastic and memorable time, which is exactly what we were looking for. Your courteous, your professional and your patient. With a bunch of rookies and it was really appreciated. Andrew made us feel safe and in great hands on the water. We caught our limit and had a couple of bigger fish get away. My daughter has some physical issues and there was genuine caring and concern. We had a blast. Slack line will do awesome with you at the helm. New boat, great attitude and he should be your go to charter. Thanks and you’ll have a bright future. The Dodds’s
I've fished out of Ucluelet every summer for the past 10 years. Although this was my first trip with Andrew it proved to be one of the best. Andrew is a top-notch guide. He's confident, thoughtful and hardworking. He quickly assessed our competency and comfort levels and then tailored his helping efforts accordingly. This included pulling up lines quickly when the fish proved scarce and trying out other spots. He was adept at driving the boat and keeping our lines in the water. He was always courteous and respectful, never pandering or prideful. Just as importantly he didn't talk too much or say stupid stuff. Instead he was all business - and very busy. On our second day we limited out in just three hours, letting lots of wild coho and undersized springs go in the process. His equipment was great and his boat spacious and comfortable. I'm keen to go out with him again.

We had a great time! Andrew knows the local waters and the best spots, we had salmon on in minutes. Would highly recommend!!!
