Captain Turk: gave us a great fishing experience which he can tune to the level of the fishing guests on board, novice to experienced. Has great knowledge of the coastal waters we fished, the local history, puts safety as top priority, reviewed all safety issues and concerns before leaving the dock answering questions, knows and follows all BC and Canada fishing licence and regs. Handled catch and release for us, which we reviewed before but he knew and managed for us.
His vessel handles the local waters perfectly, especially in the chop of the water.
He is safety first, precise, with direct instructions, efficient, friendly and accommodating.
We had a great experience and salmon steaks later that night.

Our family of four (dad 45, mom 41, daughter 16, and son 12) visiting from Ontario had an absolutely epic experience with Reel Time Fishing Charters & Marine Tours. From start to finish, it was one of the highlights of our trip!

The crew was professional, friendly, and knew exactly where to take us for the best action. We had so much fun out on the water, and everyone in our family was included in the adventure. The excitement really hit when we started reeling in — we caught both coho and Chinook, which made the day unforgettable.

It wasn’t just about fishing, either — the atmosphere on the boat was relaxed, upbeat, and full of laughs. Our teens loved it just as much as we did, which says a lot! It was the perfect mix of thrill, learning, and family fun.

If you’re looking for a charter that delivers big catches, amazing memories, and an all-around incredible time, Reel Time Fishing is the one to book. We can’t recommend them highly enough and would do it again in a heartbeat.

Captian Turk found an amazing place to fish and we caught some keeper fish! He was very accommodating when our kids experienced seasickness. The crab pot was a favourite as well!

When you go fishing all you can do is hope to reel one in! We are a family of 4 and everyone reeled in 3+ fish each in a four hour window. Now that is amazing. Josh and Captian Turk knew how to find them and work hard to make this trip amazing. I booked this trip for my husband for Father’s day and he said it was the best Father’s day yet. I couldn’t agree more. Thank you for an awesome day full of fish, great coversation and beautiful views.

Captain Turk exemplifies what a true profession guide and captain should be ... hospitable, KNOWS fishing and how to catch them and is an enthusiastic conservationist.  The boat was spotless and clean.  Very capable and top notch equipment.
