My 7year old son and I went out for a four hour trip with Captain Dean.  Everything had been considered and we were fishing soon after pushing off. The bite was slow to start but Dean changed gear, depths and speed until we were on the fish. There was no stoping us from there. We caught our limit trolling for salmon and took a short cruise to do some jigging.  We quickly hit our limit of sea bass and even had a few bonus fish. Dean was focused on ensuring we had a great time and made it a trip... More

Had this fishing trip on my bucket list for a very long time. WOW! Captain Dean hit it out of the park. Dean knew the perfect spots and very knowledgeable and experienced. Had our first Salmon on in less than a minute and then they kept coming, Salmon, lingcod, and even rockfish and cabezon. Amazing charter, boat and gear was perfect. Highly recommend Peninsula Charters with Captain Dean in Ucluelet. Absolutely amazing. Thank you Dean for a trip of a lifetime, hope to be back soon!

There are never guarantees when fishing and weather was not planning to cooperate. We booked for halibut but nasty wind prevented us going out so we had to switch to salmon inside. He got us some real solid kings (chinook), then we took a shot for lings. Ended up catching four great lings, another salmon plus a halibut! Even with the pivot due to weather, we ended up with a great haul. Total processed fish for the four of us was net 87lbs.

Can’t speak highly enough of skipper Dean Robin. He took me ( intermediate/ accomplished blank day achiever)and my two sons (novices/ fishing virgins) out from Ucluelet. I’d been building up 30 years to this trip in BC and although we didn’t manage to bag a Chinook, the experience was out of this world. Lingcod and Rockfish were the order of the day, plus a host of breathtaking views. Knock this off your bucketlist and book with Dean!

Dean is a great local guy! Happy and welcoming. Adjusted the trip according to my kids needs. He know where and how to find fish! Would love to come back here for more salmon with Dean. Dean also gave us great local tips to enjoy the rest of our stay in ucluelet! For sure very knowledgeable and made us feel right at home on his boat! Thanks Dean!
