I can tell you the most useful gear and colors so you can save money on Tackle... unlike me who bought everything under the sun and now 90% of the time just use green/white everything.

What area are you planning fishing?

I fish local off mouth of Fraser River in the Straight of Georgia and Vancouver Island. I've fished Port Alberni, Ucluelet ( Barkley sound and Offshore Banks), Port Hardy in the Queen Charlotte Straight and north of the island in the open water and along the mainland.

It's an epic place the wild West Coast... so many things that could ruin your day out there. Different animal for sure. I love it though.

UKEE this last summer...

Definitely get the downriggers on your boat and go fishing to cold lake for lakers on a rough day... it's the best practice you are going to get for ocean fishing in Alberta.
