Lazydayz Charters & Adventures
Make some memories in Nanaimo and go fishing with Lazydayz Charters. Having logged many hours on these tides, Captain Michael and his son Kody can tell you all about them.
Depending on the season, you might hook into Chinook Salmon, Coho Salmon, Sockeye Salmon, Halibut, Lingcod, Crab, Rockfish, and who knows what else! On these trips, you can expect to troll and bottom fish using light or heavy tackle. Capt. Michael can also have you Flounder gigging. Any fish within the legal limit is yours to keep. Plus, you can have your catch cleaned. Now that's dinner!
Your adventure begins aboard a 27' Cruiser with a capacity for 4 passengers. It has downriggers and all the essentials. There's a toilet on board for your convenience. You'll find rods, reels, and tackle waiting for you, along with lures. You might need to get a local fishing license before the trip. This information is usually available online, or you can ask the captain.
Don't forget to bring bottled water, sunglasses, and sunscreen (non-spray). If you'd like to bring other drinks, just ask. Alcohol is allowed in moderation, so long as you avoid hard liquor as well as glass bottles. Some species might be protected or require a tag to keep them, so make sure you know what to expect.

We had a great trip despite the weather - had a lightning show and bits of rain. Caught several fish, unfortunately no keepers this time. Will go again, Captain Mike & Cain were awesome and very easy to interact with! Thanks for the fun morning!
Friendly informative crew,
The charter operator canceled 1 days prior to the trip date. This is an automated posting.
We had an amazing time with Captain Michael and Ian. It was a gorgeous day, a little windy, but the temperature was perfect. Michael is personable and funny, it was very relaxed. He is on top of getting the rods ready, setting the hook and doing a bit of reeling to start things off. We brought quite a few fish to the boat, lots of koho. Unfortunately the majority were not hatchery, so not legal to keep, but we truly appreciated that Michael follows the regulations. We also scored 4 crabs, which was amazing. My son was smiling the whole time, and this is a kid who tends to play it cool. We'd definitely come back, it was a great experience.
