What would you recommend to anglers fishing in Sooke, British Columbia for the first time?

We were a bit late in the season and we were not able to keep the wild Coho we caught. We would not have been able to eat more than the Spring we kept anyway since we are on holiday's. It was an enjoyable day on the boat regardless.

Some days are windy, waves are big. Choose a day with light winds / rain is no factor with a cutty cabin.

Not all fish are available, but with the right weather and crew, it’s worth it.

Yes most definitely. Beautiful and easy 50 min drive from Victoria. Quick ride to local salmon spot so you spend more time fishing and less time getting there.

It is not the best season but we still kept two Chinooks, and released 5-6 small ones.

The water is relatively calm. The scenery is great and the fishing is better than I expected.

yes, but must provide an address where to meet the captain on the day of fishing. Udo
