Reel Adventures Sportfishing is your premier outfitter in British Columbia, Canada. Specializing in both freshwater and saltwater, it will take you on various grounds and make sure you return home with a big catch, as well as accommodate your needs regarding your preferred fishing styles. Meet the crew in Nelson and together embark on a true fishing adventure in Canada!

Your trip starts on a 24’ Hewescraft aluminum fishing boat adequate for carrying up to 4 anglers. It’s powered by a 200 HP Yamaha engine, is equipped with outriggers and downriggers, and uses Lowrance HDS8 GPS and fishfinder for navigation, as well as a radar and radio. The boat’s also got a wireless trolling motor and an ice-box.

The waters in the interior of British Columbia are a great source of Rainbow Trout, Bull Trout, and Walleye, and the west coast allows you to chase Salmon, Halibut, and Lingcod. Some other species you can also target include Dolly Varden and Chinook Salmon. You can catch them by bottom fishing, spinning, trolling, jigging, as well as fly fishing. You can choose whether to release the fish you catch or keep it and take it home. Kids are more than welcome to join aboard, so bring them as well.

The crew will provide you with all the fishing gear you’ll need and will clean and fillet your catch as well, no extra cost added. You just take care of your licenses, snacks, and drinks.

Book at Reel Adventures Sportfishing and create lovely memories on the water as you chase fish and enjoy gorgeous nature!

Half day trip - Kootenay Lake on November 29, 20242 adults
My husband and i went out with Kerry Reed of Reel Adventures Sport Fishing, today November 30, for a 4 hour fishing adventure on Kootenay Lake B. C. Kerry’s boat is clean, comfortable and well maintained. While very professional, he was also very pleasant company. We were thrilled to catch beautiful trout, and especially appreciated his stewardship of the fish population and his awareness of the need to protect the resource. Highly recommend this fishing guide

Half Day Trip with Captain Eugene
Half day trip - Kootenay Lake on July 10, 20232 adults
Captain Eugene was a friendly and interesting guide. We fished hard and only got one, but it was a great day and sometimes the fish just don't cooperate. We enjoyed the comfortable boat and learning about the area and the fishing from Captain Eugene. I would recommend doing this charter, but go in the spring instead of dead summer for more guaranteed action.
Reported catch:
Rainbow Trout (Steelhead)
Dolly Varden
