Nanaimo has a fish with your name on it, so let Blackfin Sportfishing help you catch it! Having logged many hours on these tides, Captain Kingsley can tell you all about the local fishery.

These waters are known for Chinook Salmon, Coho Salmon, Lingcod, Crab, Shrimp, and more – with any luck, you'll have tight lines in no time. You'll target your catch by trolling, bottom fishing, or maybe something more specialized in this area.

Trips with Blackfin Sportfishing are fun for all ages, so the whole family can come and unplug for the day! Be sure to ask if child-sized life vests are available, otherwise you should bring your own. Snacks are permitted onboard — bring your favorites so that nobody gets cranky on an empty belly!

You'll find yourself aboard a 25' Grady-White sportfishing vessel that holds up to 4 passengers. It has downriggers, and everything you need for a productive day on the water. There's a toilet on board for your convenience. You'll find rods, reels, and tackle waiting for you, along with lures.

You will need to purchase a local fishing license before the trip. This information is usually available online, or you can ask the captain. Some species may be off limits or require a special tag, so make sure you know what to expect.

A few items to bring include a hat, sunglasses, bottled water, and sunscreen (non-spray). If you'd like to bring other drinks, just ask. Alcohol is allowed in moderation, just avoid hard liquor as well as glass bottles.

Blackfin Sportfishing will make it easy for you to go fishing in Nanaimo. So, how about booking that trip?
