Best Fishing Experience Ever!!!

Half Day/5Hours 4people2 adults

Thank you Capt Chris for an experience we can look back on as a complete success. We booked a half day with Built For Speed by reading the many positive reviews. When we got to the dock, we were met with a friendly welcome and after introductions, we were given a display of the many safety features aboard. Then a comprehensive demonstration on how to correctly and safely handle the reeling in of any catch. This paid off as we certainly had a great days catch. Questions we asked were met with answers that displayed Chris’ comprehensive knowledge and experience. On return to the dock after what had been an exciting and totally successful fishing trip, Chris (after pics of course), cleaned and filleted the fish and recommended how we should cook them. All in all, we completely and without reservation recommend Built For Speed with Capt Chris for your fishing experience

    Honest captain, Vancouver Fishing

    7HR/2PERSON SALMON CHARTER • 2 adults

    Had a great trip with captain Speed. Beautiful scenery the entire time. Snow capped mountains, great seas, good company, and some good fishing. Pricing was considerably less than Vancouver city pricing verus guides around Granville Island, but a short 15 or so minute drive north. Captain Speed knew the area, put us on the fish, views of the area were beyond beautiful, worked hard the entire time, and was good company. But most importantly, he was an honest business owner and fisherman. I had over booked our trip last minute and he was quick to point out it might not be what I expected, and talked himself out of a few hours of fishing. His honesty alone made us stay the whole day. If you are looking for a great fishing experience, magnificent views, and an honest captain to steer you right on a Vancouver area fisging trip, call Captain Speed.

    Reported Catch
    Chinook Salmon

    A great day out on the water

    Half Day/5Hours 2people • 2 adults

    Chris was very experienced and knowledgeable. He knew how to fish the area and didn’t waste a minute getting the gear out. He worked very hard to find the right lures and bait and successfully enabled us to catch Chinook and Coho. Can’t wait to go fishing again, with captain Chris.

    Just Book It!

    Half Day/5Hours 1person • 2 adults

    Simple as that. Chris is a flawless technician of the art. it is obvious that his skills and instincts are ingrained after so many years on the water, but he still displays raw excitment on the hook-up. An unbeatable combo. We were able to fish within ten minutes of the marina, followed the bait and had at least ten solid strikes. Landed a 15 pound winter Chinook, a 7 pound wild coho and several smaller chinooks. Lost another real nice Chinook right at the boat. Between hits, Chris shared his extensive knowledge and passion of the sport. During a short lull in the action, Chris sensed a change of presentation was required. We couldn’t get the second rod set up before we had a fish on the first! Ad an experienced and travelled angler, I say again, Just Book It!

    Great day on the water with Chris Speed

    Half Day/5Hours 4people • 4 adults

    We had a half day with four and landed a nice keeper coho in the first half hour. We landed about four more nice ones that we had to release and two more keepers. Also got a couple small chinook that were reeased. Overall beautiul weather and a great day with a super captain. i would recommend this trip to anyone.

    Response from Captain

    A great day. Thanks to all of you, a productive day! Enjoy the Coho. Thanks Captain Chris Speed🎣👍
