Be patient - the salmon are out there and theyโ€™re a good size. We could only go on this day (July 30) but were told that we were just ahead of some big salmon runs in August so can imagine how much better it would have been in a few more days. Going on a week day was also good - we had the water to ourselves.

I would suggest doing a full day of halibut fishing since the chinook season doesnโ€™t start until August.

We couldnโ€™t have gotten a more perfect day! Sun was shining, wasnโ€™t too windy, fish were biting! We definitely over prepared but never know what to expect with being on the water

If you want a bigger catch you should check the dates of when you can keep the wild salmon.

Price was good for 5 hours. Lots of experience and Willing to answer questions. Book halibut full day so boat can travel to better Halibut options.

I did not see a lot of other boats catching a lot of fish. Few fish per boat. However, we limited with Full Melt Charters in less than 2 hours. Definitely go with this guy!

Bring a big cooler for all the fish you will be catching - they helped us pack up the fish and we got it all home without making a mess in my car but it would have been easier if I thought to bring my big cooler.

Investing in some Gravol before the trip is definitely not a bad idea if you are not used to choppy sea.

Sooke is an easy place to access from Victoria, the scenery is beautiful and it feels very remote even though it is only a short drive from Victoria. The regulations are a bit restrictive for keeping fish, but a great accessible place to fish. We did not fish for Halibut, but understand the Halibut grounds are very close to Sooke which would make Halibut fishing easy

Some days are windy, waves are big. Choose a day with light winds / rain is no factor with a cutty cabin.

We were a bit late in the season and we were not able to keep the wild Coho we caught. We would not have been able to eat more than the Spring we kept anyway since we are on holiday's. It was an enjoyable day on the boat regardless.
