Nanaimo Coho Salmon Fishing Charters

While many species of fish such as Lingcod and other species of ground fish (rock cod) are closed during this time, the Chinook Fishery remains open. Catch limit is 2 per angler. The trip price includes taxes.

This trip includes all bait and tackle. You will fish the waters of Nanaimo that are most productive during the months of April and May for Chinook Salmon. Captain will also drop crab traps for some bonus Dungeness Crabs.

This afternoon outing will take you out on the waters of British Columbia. You will be targeting Chinook Salmon and Coho Salmon, with the hopes of hooking into a trophy Chinook over 20 pounds! The gear is furnished onboard, and you will have lures, and bait at your disposal. Bring a salt water fishing licence, snacks, drinks, sunglasses, and a camera.

The half-day trip will be 4 to 5 hours. In the time that we have on the water, we will drop some Crab traps close to the fishing grounds. Then we will go do some trolling for Salmon. If time allows it we also might try and target some Lingcod and Rock Cod. Fishing off the bottom jigging for those species is the most productive way to catch them. Very short boat rides to fishing grounds to maximize fishing time.

Start your trip off by setting up a Crab trap or a few Shrimp pots, then head off for some Salmon. Salmon don't wanna bite today? Let's catch some Rockfish! Lingcod and Snapper are always tasty! Returning to the harbor we can pick up the Shrimp and/or Crab pots we dropped earlier in the day. The adventure is yours, let me be your guide!
