Marc is the ABSOLUTE BEST!.
Half Day Trip - 8:00 AM on May 16, 20268 adults

Hi everyone! I booked my half-day trip with Marc in Vancouver on Saturday, May 16. I would absolutely recommend anyone looking to fish to book with Marc. Here are my Top 3 reasons. 1. His communication is perfect. From day 1, I made a special request to be contacted via text, and he did so. He followed up with me consistently on the weather for the day and answered my million questions about what we could and could not bring on the boat, as I was booking this for a Bachelor's trip. And let me tell you, he was open to making sure we had a great time! 2. Even though the weather was 10-15 knots that day, he still allowed us to go fishing and have a great time. He did not cancel on us. He even gave us the option to fish the next day! 3. We had a few guys who got seasick, and he did his best to make sure we were okay. He didn't mind that they puked on his boat and told us we could dock anytime we wanted. We still fished cause the groom wanted to catch fish. We caught a dozen crabs, and he prepped and cooked them for us. An Absolute Delight! Don't book with anyone else. Just go with Marc! I would 100% book with him again and recommend him to anyone! I hope this review helps! Happy Fishing!

amazing day!
Half Day Trip - 8:00 AM on June 20, 20265 adults1 child

Our family fished for salmon and crab with Marc and his daughter. The boat was well outfitted and my 8 year old nephew caught a huge salmon within a few minutes of us dropping lines in. The catch was on from there with everyone in our group reeling one in! I'd definitely recommend Marc- he knew where and when to go to get on the fish! We also really appreciate his help getting our catch to a cannery to ship home. Overall, we had a blast!

great time, fun for the whole family. The Captain and crew were polite, helpful, engaging and knowledgeable. Unfortunately, the fish didn’t cooperate, but a fantastic experience and would book again on our next visit west.
