We have been enjoying the start of the winter chinook fishing season in Vancouver and Sidney, BC. We have seen decent numbers of fish, pretty good weather and steady catches of prawns and a few crabs! Winter is one of our favourite times to go fishing in British Columbia. Our weather is the warmest in Canada and when needed, we just turn our diesel heaters on!

After a long wait, Vancouver area anglers have lots of options to take advantage of. With virtually all the traditional Vancouver salmon fishing areas now open and subject to full retention, September is shaping up to be the most anticipated month of the year. There certainly has been some good waves of chinook coming into local waters, but there has also been some tough tides where we have had to work for our bites. The slower days have often followed visits from salmon eating killer whales. The Gulf Island’s are still producing a few fish, but most anglers are now focusing on the local Vancouver waters.

We are seeing coho numbers start to increase this week on our Vancouver Fishing Charters. In Sidney and the Gulf Island's we have seen good numbers of chinook salmon . This is perfect timing as chinook retention begins on July 15th in some areas and August 1st in some other locations. Time to go fishing in Vancouver or Sidney, BC!!

After a 10 week hiatus, we are now resuming our Vancouver Charter Fishing operations with Covid 19 protocols in place. Summer is coming and the boats have been waxed and polished and are ready go. Give us a call to get out on the water!

Our Vancouver Fishing Charters are getting very close to resuming after a long suspension due to Covid 19. We should have an official start date by next week and are now taking summer bookings! Looking forward to get back out on the water!
