What an amazing day! I went on this fishing trip one-on-one with the captain, and it couldn't have been a better experience. The fishing was fantastic, but what made the trip truly special was being so close to nature. Seeing bears on the shoreline and sea lions in the wild was just incredible. The captain was super friendly, explained everything along the way, and made sure I had a great time from start to finish. At the end of the trip, he even filleted and vacuum-packed all of my fish, which was a huge bonus. Even with the rainy weather, it was absolutely worth it. I had an unforgettable day and would book this trip again without hesitation. Highly recommended! Frank from Germany
Thank you for the great review and the pictures!! You are welcome to come fish next time youre in town!
Today we caught an octopus and two halibut – from big to small, we caught it all! 🎣🦑 Our captain was friendly, enthusiastic, and very helpful. He knew all the best fishing spots and showed us exactly how to bring in the big fish. It was an amazing experience and we highly recommend it!
We had a fantastic day out on the boat with Ukees best captain, Laurier. We caught heaps of squid which was then used as bait for some bigger rock fish, and a few flounder also. Laurier was incredibly accommodating and friendly throughout. We'll definitely be using him again. thanks again mate!
Avec un joli accent québécois, Laurier, le capitaine nous a conduit sur son bateau flambant neuf jusqu’au spot de pêche. Tres pro, il nous a permis d’attrapé deux super Halibuts et deux saumon. Adrénaline et bonne humeur garanties. André Dufresne de la Suisse
Capt. Laurier put us on the fish and made the whole trip a blast. An awesome experience from start to finish. I'd 100% recommend him to anyone looking to get out on the water. We'll definitely be booking again next time we're in the Ucluelet/Tofino area.
You guys are awesome! You are invited for next year !
