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.

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.

Incredible time! Always swapping it up, we constantly had fish on the lines, and if there was ever a moment we’re we weren’t getting constant bites, they’d find another spot to hit and snag more! Captain Andrew, and his crew Josh were easy to talk too, and salt of the earth good people, would definitely suggest and will book again with them!

My girlfriend and I had a great time fishing with Captain Turk. I’ve been fishing my whole life but it was her first time. Turk told us about the area, his interest in conservation, co-existing, and respecting the wildlife in the area. We had 5 bites and got to keep 2 cohos. The second one I caught was big and made for a delicious dinner. If you’re looking for a great day of fishing as a couple, you’ve come to the right spot. Thanks again, Captain Turk!
