The word on fishing with us:
We design all of our fishing charters with our guest’s satisfaction in mind: and that goal is to maximize our guest’s opportunities at catching salmon and providing value for you—our guest. We don’t want to take you on some pre-destined saran wrap charter—we want to catch you fish! Our rates are comparable to the locals in the market and reflect the effort and experience we provide in your Vancouver Fishing experience. We prefer to recommend fishing trips conducive to producing the best fishing experience that Vancouver has to offer at that time (depending on the time of year and runs present in the area). We also offer custom charters to your specification and time constraints! Depending on the time of year, each of our Vancouver Fishing Charters is designed to maximize your fishing experience and put in the time and effort required to hopefully get you on the fish. A longer trip or earlier or later departure may be advisable. We take what we do seriously! Call us for details! We offer shared charters for individual anglers, private groups, corporate groups and multiple boats.

“The Half Day”—5.5 hours Guided Salmon Fishing
Unquestionably, this is Vancouver’s most popular fishing charter. “The Half Day” is 5.5 hours from dock to dock. Some of the most productive fishing in the Vancouver area is within a 30 minute cruise to the fishing grounds. From January to June, at your request, as an added bonus we drop crab traps for prime Dungeness Crab. Mmmm…crab dinner! Our half day charter is a great way to take advantage of the “bite” on a tide change and sample the salmon action 12 months of the year. However, depending on the fishing location “hot spot” we may recommend an extension which lengthens the trip to compensate for increased travel time to the best area, longer trolling time and area coverage. See our rate chart and call us for details! This is a favorite with Vancouver tourists. ***Note: If the fishing is along the West Vancouver shoreline (I.e Mid-June to August and Sept. 12-Oct. 25), we are the closest to this area which means the most fishing time for you!

This fishing charter is 8 hours dock to dock and opens up many more opportunities when fishing the Vancouver area. This is a fantastic charter for entertaining, getting away, and taking advantage of crucial tide changes.
