    5/5 stars - 3 unforgettable days of fishing

    Full Day Trip

    We just wrapped up an incredible 3-day fishing charter out of Port Hardy with Scott from Emerald Sea Adventures, and I can't recommend him enough. His boat and fishing equipment are top-tier, and his knowledge of the local waters is second to none. We completely slaughtered the bottom fish (especially the lingcod) and pulled in some fantastic salmon and halibut! To top it all off, Scott spotted whales and dolphins for us along the way. He’s super easygoing, warm, and great company on the water. Thank you for an unforgettable trip, Scott!

    Reported catch:
    Halibut
    Coho Salmon
    Chinook Salmon
    Lingcod

    Full Day Trip

    This is our third year of chartering with Capt Scott onboard Rums Hot. Capt Scott is an extremely knowledgeable guide. The last 2 years we limited out and this year the salmon were scarce but we were not disappointed. The pics do not show our whole catch. I caught my first big "dragon" on this day and you can tell by the grin it was awesome. Lots of fish to take home and I prefer the white fish over the salmon. Lots of whales, Sea Otters some Orca's and great weather. We will be booking again next year. Thanks Scott

2025 Seasons coming to a close Fishing is starting to slow down with most Salmon heading back to their home rivers to finish their life’s journey and lay to start of their future. Bottom fish are still going strong. Already can not wait for next years season to start. Its been an awesome season. I can not thank the people I’ve met this season enough. Wish you all tight lines in your future endeavours and hope we can do this again.
