Early Season Salmon Fishing with Captain Lloyd (Reelin’ Shores)
10 Hour Trip on April 15, 2025 • 4 adults
Went out with Captain Lloyd for some early season salmon fishing and had a great time on the water. We managed to hook one solid Chinook, and while the salmon action was just starting to heat up, the prawns were plentiful! We pulled up traps full of prawns, along with some snap lobsters and a good haul of crabs — definitely made for a feast afterward. Captain Lloyd was a blast — knowledgeable, easygoing, and kept us entertained the whole trip. He clearly knows the waters and has a real passion for what he does. The trip was also very reasonably priced compared to others in the area, which made it even better. If you’re looking for a fun, productive day on the water (with a few laughs along the way), Captain Lloyd’s your guy. Would definitely go again once the salmon are running heavier!

Great guide and fun day on the water
10 Hour Trip – Early Book on August 9, 2022 • 2 adults
Lloyd is a very knowledgeable and excellent fishing guide. He knew where to fish and what catch catch in each location. He was very patient with me because I am first time fisherperson. He is a great teacher and conversationalist which made the day just fly by! Lloyd even put out crab and prawn traps so we had a bonus to take home at the end of the day! Thanks Lloyd!! My only recommendations about his boat are to have a bathroom which is not possible and chairs to sit in on the back of the boat. It was awkward to sit in the cabin all day and watch the lines and could be more comfortable with chairs closer to the fishing rods.

Great fishing
10 Hour Trip on September 11, 2023 • 3 adults
We caught fish every day. We hauled in prawn traps and ate fresh prawns every night. Fresh crab one night. Exciting catches of fish . Everyone had a great fishing experience. Capt was full of interesting tales about the local area as well as other fish stories. We were kept entertained every day. Our paid for 10 hour days always became 12 hour days with no extra charge. He came home when we want to come home. Great trip.
