Reel Life Charters
Reel Life Charters offers world-class fishing in Sooke, the gem of Vancouver Island. Offering some of the best Salmon fishing in the world, the waters of Sooke are also rich with Halibut, Rockfish, and Lingcod. Captain Travis is a patient angler and has had years of experience mastering the local waters.
If fishing in Sooke sounds appealing, you will absolutely love it aboard a 28-foot Pursuit boat. This is a clean, seaworthy vessel that is well-prepared for the current bite. Step aboard, and the boat's twin 300 HP Suzuki engines will power you to the best playgrounds in the area. Perfect for accommodating up to six anglers, the vessel is fully rigged with top-notch navigational electronics and many other professional facilities. Inside, there is a toilet and bed for your maximum comfort when relaxing in between the bites.
Sooke offers outstanding fishing opportunities. You will be able to enjoy the thrill of reeling in Chinook Salmon year-round! Coho Salmon bite best summer through fall and early autumn is the best time to chase Chum Salmon. If you are after Pink and Sockeye, they are abundant in late summer. To make your Sooke bucket list even more exciting, you could add Lingcod, Rockfish, and Crab to it. Or even battle Halibut!
When you return to the shore, the captain will take care of processing your catch so that you could have your weekly dinners sorted out. Before you start, you will need to purchase a Tidal Waters Sport Fishing License with a Salmon stamp, grab something to eat and drink, and come aboard!

Very knowledgeable Captain. Was great with our kids and the million questions they had. Had so much fun and caught lots of fish.
Thanks Dawn, had a blast with you guys!
Captain Travis is very knowledgeable and nice, the boat is very clean and comfortable for the trip as well.
Our family of four (mom, dad and two kids aged 11 and 9) had an amazing experience with Travis earlier this week. We caught many fish (four types of salmon and several types of rockfish) and he was so good to all four of us, including our very inquisitive kids. He answered all their questions, took us to catch everything we were hoping to catch, pointed out other wildlife in the area and just made it an incredible trip for us. If you are considering booking here, you will not be disappointed! Cheers Travis, thank you so much, definitely the highlight of the trip!
Fantastic trip. We had a great day on the water. Travis knows how to get on the fish. We had a great day. Highly recommended.
