Early Season Salmon Fishing with Captain Lloyd (Reelin’ Shores)

VERIFIED

Went out with Captain Lloyd for some early season salmon fishing and had a great time on the water. We managed to hook one solid Chinook, and while the salmon action was just starting to heat up, the prawns were plentiful! We pulled up traps full of prawns, along with some snap lobsters and a good haul of crabs — definitely made for a feast afterward. Captain Lloyd was a blast — knowledgeable, easygoing, and kept us entertained the whole trip. He clearly knows the waters and has a real passion for what he does. The trip was also very reasonably priced compared to others in the area, which made it even better. If you’re looking for a fun, productive day on the water (with a few laughs along the way), Captain Lloyd’s your guy. Would definitely go again once the salmon are running heavier!
