What ferry is the easiest from the airport?
All I know is to take Gravol!
Can or should a fella take anything to up the odds of catching something?
How do you bring fish home on a plane?
OOOOh! So excited and so many questions!
If your not set on taking the ferry jump in a cab and have them take you over to the float plane terminal. its about 70$ each and only a 20 min flight over to nanaimo. Then you can rent a car and take your time making the beautiful drive over to the west coast.

the ferry can be a huge hassle during the summer and getting to the terminal without a car is a pain.

A little tip if you think you will be prone to getting sick on the water, get yourself a bag of bulk candied ginger. keep a piece tucked in your cheek while your fishing to keep your stomach from ruining your day.
