Our captain Jeff was awesome. We got to our spot and no sooner thet he put lines out that we caught our first chinook and a couple of minutes later we caught our second. Once the four of us caught our chinooks we moved and procceded to catch 2 pink salmon. All in all it was agreat experience

My fishing trip
5/5
Had a great time on our fishing trip. The captain was very good and I helped him out when I could. We had lots of bits had some on and lost them. We went to a different location and tried and and we caught 2 ling cod and a pink salmon. It would have been nice to catch a spring salmon but there were whales in the area. I will go back next year and do it again. Thanks for the great fishing trip

4 Hour salmon charter
5/5
Captain Marc spotted Orca Whales on our route to the fishing grounds. He brought us to camera range an witnessed the Orca pod "fishing" for spring salmon. Once Captain Marc reached the fishing grounds, we hooked up to coho & pink salmon. It was a great day on the water!

Perfect hat trick
5/5
Great day with Captain Andrew. We caught chinook, coho, and pink salmon on a four-hour tour. He really knew where to find them, and we noticed lots of other boats circling us once we started hitting, trying to cheat off our captain's local knowledge. And he has some great stories to tell.

Half day with Gary
5/5
We went out on a warm day with Gary… a great guide and captain. We left at 12:30pm and trip started slow, but we got on to the Pink Salmon and the action heated up. Things cooled off as the day wore on, but two huge Chinook Salmon made for an exciting trip. Gary was great and cleaned and filleted our catch at the end of the day. Highly recommend this trip!
