Fishing Charters

Our custom fishing charters are based upon your preference.  Whether you would like to fish for Salmon, Pacific Ling, Rockfish, Spot Prawns, crabs or a combination we can tailor a day just for you.
We can accommodate a maximum of 8 people.  For larger groups we can do separate charters.

We use descending devices to safely release unintentional rockfish catches.

The Gulf Rascal is moored at the first float.

What to bring

Dress for the weather.  A rain coat and boots might not be a bad idea even though we are on the Sunshine Coast. It can be cool on the water so bring a jacket and sweater.  Sunscreen, sunglasses and cap in the summer is in order.

A lunch or snack and beverages.  Refrigeration is on board.

For the trip home you will need an appropriate cooler and ice.  We will have ice on board for the days fishing.

Licenses

Guests will need a BC Tidal Waters Fishing License, and should be sure to add salmon conservation stamp to the transaction to ensure that you can fish salmon too. Children under the age of 16 require a license too but their license is free. Licenses should be purchased online and it is best to do this from home. 

Please do print a copy and bring on the boat, as you are required to log salmon and ling catches.
