Large, comfortable vessel. Great for big groups or families, with lots of seating inside and out on deck. Can host up to seven guests per day. Vessel is equipped with toasty warm heaters in a fully enclosed galley for those wet and rainy days. Full walk-in washroom, preferred over a bucket on those little charter boats. Vessel is also equipped with auto pilot.
Limits of Halibut, Salmon and Lingcod expected daily! Early season prawn and crab trips also available apon request.
  Thirty years of inshore and offshore fishing experience, with the vessel and equipment to do the job right.
My gallery photos proudly display the experience you should expect aboard MV Finnia with Captain Josh.
Everyone welcome.

8 Hour Trip- (7 guests max)S on August 18, 20264 adults

Captain Josh delivered. My 3 sons and I asked for: 1 -the eldest's first salmon in the boat: accomplshed in the first 10 minutes 2 -a healthy catch: 12 fish landed, several released, and some good lessons learned/misses 3 -a variety of species: Chinook, Coho (none hatchery unfortunately), Ling cod, Sole, Halibut, and some other bycatch (also released) all made it to the boat. As for enjoyable, my eldest says it was the highlight activity of our trip despite pretty severe motion sickness setting in within the first hour. The youngest boy (13) landing a just legal (110cm) Halibut as we were pulling in the gear to head back was the icing on the cake. Thanks Captain Josh!

Very enjoyable trip!
2 Hour trip-(7 guests max) on August 25, 20263 adults

Josh was a great host and very knowledgeable about the fishing and also the local area. He was mindful of our different levels of fishing experience and made sure we were all successful in catching fish while on our tour. He also showed that safety of the passengers and the vessel as well as adhering to fishing guidelines was very important to him so we felt safe and responsible the whole time we were out. The views from the boat were also awesome. Highly recommended!

Phenomenal trip
6 Hour trip-(7 guests max) on July 28, 20267 adults

What an absolutely phenomenal fishing trip in Ucluelet! We landed 7 huge salmon and couldn't have asked for a better day on the water. Josh was incredibly knowledgeable, knew exactly where to find the fish, and shared so much insight throughout the trip. His experience and professionalism made the entire adventure both exciting and enjoyable. If you're looking for an unforgettable fishing charter, I can't recommend this trip highly enough. Whether you're an experienced angler or it's your first time out, you're in excellent hands. Highly, highly recommended!

8 Hour Trip- (7 guests max)S on August 5, 2026

I’ve been fishing with Josh for 5 years now and couldn’t be happier. This captain puts us on the fish every year, and gets my freezer full. No matter what species your after captain Josh will get it done. Beginners to advanced he has made our journey great helping out. I would highly recommend him, if you’ve got the time to get out and fish
