Comparing to fishing in other places, the cost vs. value is kind of high. Wild salmon are not allowed to be kept, Chinuk salmon seems to be hard to catch in the spot we went to.

Fishing in Vancouver in August is definitely worthwhile, especially in a pink salmon year. The bay was full of pink salmon when we went, and they were fun and easy to catch — ideal for children or anyone new to fishing. It’s probably not the fish of a lifetime, but for a beginner to intermediate experience it’s perfect, and exactly what I was looking for when taking the kids along.

I’m so glad we were able to go fishing vessel before are cruise to Alaska. We caught fish which is a bonus, but if we didn’t catch any Scott still would have made sure we had fun. You won’t be sorry. Go make some great memories!!

Chinook are smaller this time of year, but we caught a bunch and hooked in to a couple of bigger Coho to keep.

Wear layers, weather can be cool in the morning and warm up nicely as the day goes on.

It's why they call it fishing not catching. Each week is different the fish move in and out so you never know what the season may bring.

Bring a raincoat... the weather can turn on a dime. Boat can get a little bouncy, but you very likely will NOT get seasick since the shore is close by. It was great having a bathroom aboard, and a very clean one at that. I can't imagine NOT catching fish with Captain Scott. He knows the area like nobody else.

We had a calm day on the water. The day before was very rough, but they caught more fish—just to say that with fishing you take your chances, but the experience was great!

Note the only keepers were the hatchery coho - we managed to catch quite a few wild ones and a couple of nice chinook, which were not allowed to keep in that area and time of year. Lots of action and limited out!

Having a captain that knows the waters and takes pride in his boat is key! Highly recommend captain Scott and Mongoose Striker Fishing Charters.

You can’t keep chinook salmon at this time but that was ok as we just wanted to catch and release.
