    Fishing for Halibut is dependant on tides and currents. On each day, there is a specific time window in which fishing for halibut is most successful, we can often fish for salmon beforehand, or afterwards. To fish for halibut, we travel 20-30 minutes, set an anchor, and jig 170-250 ft deep. We have manual, and electric reel options depending on desire. We often catch Black Cod, Rockfish, and Lingcod too. LEGAL LIMIT is one fish per person, max 102 cm.

Halibut fishing in Victoria, British Columbia, Canada draws anglers for big, tasty Pacific Halibut. Victoria sits by the Strait of Juan de Fuca, where strong tides move bait fish. These waters hold Flatfish on gravel and sand, making steady action close to a vibrant coastal city.

Most trips use bottom fishing with heavy tackle in 150–300 feet. Captains drift or anchor depending on the tide. They drop spreader bars with salmon belly, herring, or squid, or work glow metal jigs. The goal is simple. Keep your bait near the bottom, feel the thump, and lift with steady pressure.

Charter days often start early with a brisk run to the banks. Expect cool wind, rolling swell, and a real workout when a Halibut bites. This suits first-timers and seasoned anglers who want a strong fight and great fillets. Bring warm layers, a waterproof jacket, sturdy shoes, snacks, and sunscreen. Most crews provide quality rods, tackle, and bait, and many can help with cleaning your catch after the trip.

Before heading out, check current regulations for this area. Make sure you have the right fishing license and any needed stamps or permits. Seasons, retention rules, and daily limits can change during the year. Ask your captain about barbless hook rules, release techniques, and how to handle your catch. Always review the latest guidelines before your trip.
