About the trip

This guided fishing trip takes you into the Northern Salish Sea in search of mighty Chinook Salmon. This fish averages from 12 lbs to 28 lbs but can grow to over 40 lbs on rare occasions. Incidental by-catch of bottom fish can occur. This bottom fish is mostly a variety of Codfish but mighty Pacific Halibut is caught from time to time. On an 8-hour trip, there is an opportunity to set traps for delicious BC Spot Prawns.

8 hour Salmon Fishing Charter on July 19, 2025

Had a blast with Captain Pete and his pup Minnow

Captain Pete is a great guy. Minnow is amusing while the fishing dies down. He knows how to put you on the fish. We caught tons of fish. A good time was had by all of us.

8 hour Salmon Fishing Charter on August 11, 2024

A little wind and weeds to start

VERIFIED

Took my Alberta grand kids on a trip of a life time... Pete was excellent and patient. Despite the not ideal conditions for a start we were on fish quickly and all landed keepers on board. Conditions settled and all enjoyed the experience.
