Tiffany Yang5.0VerifiedFun trip
4 hour trip Nanaimo AM on August 27, 2026 • 4 adultsOur 4 hour trip was great! Captain Brannen was very knowledgeable and got us on fish. We limited out on Chinooks and caught a couple Cohos, but had to let them go because they’re wilds. We also got a couple crabs as well. Definitely recommend booking this charter and hope to come back soon for a longer trip! Thank you for a great time out on the waters!

Agnes Balogh5.0VerifiedThe best experience of our vacation
3 Hour Trip Nanaimo on July 11, 2025 • 4 adults • 2 childrenCaptain Brannen is very knowledgable, experienced and friendly. He was wonderful with our kids (4, 6 years old). He knows the best spots to have a succesful fishing trip. He is not only from Nanaimo, he know everything about the wildlife. My kids loved to catch all the crabs and learn about them, measuring them. Captain Brannen went above and beyond for us and we are definitely pick him when we’ll bisit next time. Thank you for the experience of a lifetime.
Mat Bickel5.0VerifiedAmazing time on a boat
Half Day Trip (AM) Nanaimo on September 29, 2025 • 2 adultsWe went on a five-hour trip with Brannen. It was an amazing day, with lots of salmon caught and great conversation. If you're looking for a good time with a guide who really cares about the ecosystem and knows a lot about the region, Brannen is the right person to contact. 10/10!
