Our BC fishing experience, combined with our love of fishing, ensures that all of our guests have a world class Vancouver Island fishing trip.
The West Coast of Vancouver Island is BC's hottest saltwater fishing destination. This area is known for trophy Chinook salmon fishing (a.k.a. Kings or Tyee) and Coho salmon fishing (a.k.a. Silvers). Island Tides saltwater fishing trips also include Halibut fishing and bottom fishing for Lingcod and Red Snapper.
If you prefer freshwater fishing you can’t beat freshwater fly fishing on Vancouver Island's top rivers, lakes and streams. Depending on the season you can enjoy the thrill of fly fishing for Steelhead, Trout and all five species of Pacific Salmon. Mix it up and try your hand at saltwater fly fishing for Pacific salmon too! We’ll custom design Vancouver Island fishing charters to suit your interests and level of fly-fishing experience.
