Dahl's Guide Service

There are fish with your name on them in Camptonville and Dahl’s Guide Service will help you catch them!

Kokanee (land-locked Sockeye Salmon) are plentiful in Bullards, and fun to catch! For these species, you’re likely to troll using light tackle. You will also have a chance at catching some other species that inhabit these waters.

Families making of a day of it will be glad to know that kids are welcome aboard! Be sure to ask if child-sized life vests are available, otherwise you should bring your own. Feel free to bring your own snacks so that nobody gets cranky on an empty belly!

You’ll be welcome aboard a 19’ Center console with room for 3 passengers. It has downriggers, and all the essentials no fishing machine can run without. Capt. Tim has rods and reels for you, as well as lures. Live bait is on offer, but it’s good to ask about this so you know if you’ll be catching it yourself.

Before coming aboard, you’ll need to buy a local fishing license for everyone in your group. This information is usually available online, or you can ask the captain. Some species may be off limits or require a special tag, so make sure you know what to expect.

It’s never a bad idea to bring sunblock (non-spray), bottled water, and sunglasses. 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.

Your trip with Dahl’s Guide Service is just a click away, so why not make it happen?

I've been fishing since I was old enough to walk. I love sharing the fishing experience with others, and especially kids. We need to get the next generation outdoors, and reverse the decline of fishing and hunting.
