Half Day w/ Brent

Half Day Trip – Salmon1 adult

A phenomenal day of fishing with Brent. He was honest before we set off about the wind making things rough out in the open ocean and what opportunities might be out of bounds, but despite this we still pulled up a limit of coho and I even got to pull in a chinook, definitely a fish to remember! Unfortunately my sea legs were not under me and Brent was very accommodating finding calmer waters where we could fish and not be so churned up by the water. The gear was high quality, I would definitely recommend this trip to anyone looking to make their Vancouver Island fishing dreams come true. Thanks Brent!

Thanks for the great Review Nicholas. It was a nasty ocean! But we made it work. I'm glad you had a good time! I hope to see you again in Ucluelet. Brent

    What a wonderful day!

    8 Hour Trip – Halibut / Ground Fish • 2 adults

    Despite the less-than-ideal weather, we still managed to land 10 great catches thanks to the captain’s experience and guidance. He really knows his stuff and showed us some excellent fishing techniques throughout the trip. Highly recommend this charter if you’re looking for a knowledgeable and professional crew who can still deliver a great day of fishing in tough conditions!

    Two, 8 hour days with Captain Brent

    8 Hour Trip – Halibut / Ground Fish • 3 adults

    Captain Brent worked very hard to ensure that all three of us caught our limit of salmon. The water was also very rough so he balanced catching salmon with each of us not getting sea-sick so we could still enjoy the day. On the second day Brent selected calmer waters and we still did well catching salmon. Overall a great couple of days on the ocean fishing.

    Reported Catch
    Chinook Salmon
