The bountiful waters of Comox Valley are waiting for your rod and bait. Join Ripline Guiding for an exciting day on the water and experience everything that British Columbia has to offer. You’ll be fishing alongside Captain Bruce, who’s been a professional guide for over 30 years. He welcomes anglers of all skill levels and hopes you’ll be the next person he’ll teach something new.

The trip starts on a 25’ Aquasport that accommodates up to 4 guests. She’s powered by a 250 HP Yamaha engine and reaches the speed of 40 knots. This cruiser features modern navigational electronics, a wireless trolling engine, a private toilet, and downriggers. Offering a safe and reliable ride, this boat is just what you need for a successful trip.

The primary focus on each trip is Chinook Salmon but beautiful sights and sounds of nature around are also something that can steal the show. You’ll be using light tackle and troll through the day. Decide if you want to spend 4 or 8 hours of fishing and come to the dock. You can keep the catch after the trip and the captain will clean it for you free of charge.

Just prepare your fishing license and bring some snacks and drinks for the day. The captain fully covers your fishing equipment and it will be ready before you come aboard.

Ripline Guiding promises your day with them is going to be a memorable one. Relax, have fun, catch some tasty dinner!
