Salmon Fishing/charter advice

[20shadow05]

Hi All,

I am thinking of a max 2 day fishing trip with my son, next year most likely. I know the price varies from an inflatable kayak to your own private yacht, but I would like to hear from people who have had a great experience and who to go with.

I can take care of airfare, hotels, meals, etc., just want a great on water experience as well as cleaning/packing/freezing of the catch.

Thanks in advance for your suggestions and help.

What dates are you lookin?g at and budget is a big thing, most reputable outfits are 1200 to 1500 a day, some a bit more. Location would depend on the time of year and if you want to retain Chinook there are a lot of closures now.

Thanks,

There will be 2 or 3 of us going, so 1500/day or so is fine, not looking to spend stupid money. As for time of year, I have no idea about salmon fishing, but it will most likely be next Fall. Location doesn't really matter as long is it is accessible through fly/drive.'


Hope this helps.

Sea J charters and jigs and reels fishing adventures are both top notch outfits in the central island area that will go to the ends of the earth to put you on fish.
If you decide to do your own research I suggest going with a boat that has some room on it. The smaller Boston whaler size boats can get you out there but are far less comfortable and having a cabin or awning during long days on the water is a huge plus.

I'd go to Rupert if going in the fall. Less travel, the northern coho should thick. If you were going in summer I'd go to the island. Feel free to Dm me if your interested about fishing Rupert.

We enjoyed fishing with Crabby’s between Comox and Campbell River. He was a lot better with our kids than other charters we had been on.

I'll post it in this one since the other is getting deleted!

Can't go wrong with Northking lodge, or if you want something a little more 'local' in the lower mainland, you could go with Bon Chovy out of Granville island. Both outfits are fantastic and offer different adventures.
