Fresh Campbell River Fishing Reports

Great spring fishing with multiple hook ups and Chinook to put on the BBQ

Enjoyed an evening fishing, hooked up, landed & released a beautiful +25lb Chinook salmon. Great action on the rods “feel the burn”

Cruise to Toba Inlet 90 minutes from Campbell River to hookup to nice chrome Chinook Salmon.

Coastal Adventures – Fishing Report Captain Dan Reporting Toba Inlet exploded this trip—no other way to say it. We fished the flood tide behind Second Island at 110 feet, and it was like throwing gas on a fire. Chinook salmon were stacked and on the hunt. Rods doubled, reels screamed, and we hit multiple double headers that had the boat rocking and the adrenaline pumping. These weren’t cookie-cutter fish—15 to 25-pound bruisers, chrome-bright and savage. One after another, they hit like freight trains and fought like warriors. Every angler on board was into fish, and the energy was electric. Toba isn’t just a fishery—it’s an experience. Towering cliffs, cascading waterfalls, and that raw, untouched magic of the BC coast. It’s where nature shows off—and the fish show up. But listen close—this special Toba Charter is limited. No fixed dates, no open calendar—just a few prime spots left while Chinook retention is legal and the bite is red-hot. Once they’re gone, they’re gone. No second chances. Book now. This is where the giants run—and they’re running right now. TD Coastal Adventures Captain Dan Shea Wild fish. Wild places. Lifetime memories
