Fishing has been absolutely off the charts so far this year! Early season runs have been strong with feisty salmon and some absolutely beautiful halibut. Our guides have been having an amazing time with some fantastic guests and a bunch of first timers!

Half Day Trip – Rise and Shine

My siblings and I booked this trip and it was a beautiful day. Unfortunately, we didn’t catch any fish (just our bad luck) but we had tons of fun trying! We did get some crab (yum!) and prawns. The captain Don, was so informative and excellent. We really appreciated him! It was a day overall and would highly recommend these guys! Thanks so much!

Hi Trina thanks so much for the review! A total bummer about the slow fishing but glad the crabbing and prawning was better. We hope you enjoy the rest of your time on the island with your family. Safe travels home!

My wife and I had a fantastic day fishing with Don. He put us on the fish early and made our trip special. My wife caught a gigantic chinook salmon! we left with 3 chinooks, 2 coho and almost a dozen beautiful crabs. Caught even more than we kept. Highly recommend to anyone looking for an exceptional day on the water!

The cabin was completely covered and had plenty of room for at least five people. The fishing equipment was in good shape. The captain was experienced and put us on fish pretty quickly. We caught our limit of Chinook and Coho salmon and even got to see some whales. We couldn’t have asked for anything better.

Had an amazing day out fishing and crabbing with Chris! My daughter and I had such a great time. Great company and conversation, and Chris really went the extra mile to make sure we were enjoying ourselves and catching fish. Beautiful luxurious boat too, not your regular fishing boat Highly recommended
