We spent 2 full days fishing for Salmon with Laurier.  He went above and beyond to make us feel comfortable, put us on the fish, let us use our “lucky spoons” and taught us some new skills, like squid jigging.  “Fishing” and having a great time in the water are highly influenced by your skipper.  Laurier excelled in every fashion.  While the entire fleet reported spotty success rates, we came home with a freezer full of fish, due mostly to Laurier’s adapting to conditions and coming up with inventive solutions.  The fish made it tricky but we had a determined and knowledgeable skipper, so we had a blast, came home with an embarrassingly full cooler full of delicious Ucluelet’s prized catch, including our “Flavorite” White Chinook salmon.
Kudos to Laurier and his easy going style and all his first rate equipment.  Thanks so much for making our trip a success, and getting to know you was probably the best part.
Sincerely,
Jamie and Arla Holliday.

Capt. Laurier put us on the fish and made the whole trip a blast. An awesome experience from start to finish. I’d 100% recommend him to anyone looking to get out on the water. We’ll definitely be booking again next time we’re in the Ucluelet/Tofino area.

I have fished inland lakes my entire life, last night (Friday August 14th) Big Bite took me salmon fishing for my first every Pacific fishing trip. The weather was not favourable, but in the short trip we landed a limit of Coho and Chinook, and had an amazing fishing experience. Highly recommended for anyone, but if you are a fisherman, you will feel at home with Big Bite Charters!

It was a windy day with a choppy ocean in front of us.  Within our 4 hour trip the fishing guide knew exactly where to find fish in calmer water.  Great finishing and we’re able to bring in 2 different kinds of salmon.  Amazing views from the water.  Couldn’t have asked for more within our budget!  100% recommend and will be back!
