We were lucky enough to have a wonderful day and fishing seemed to be good from start; but, apart of that, Will is extremely knowledgeable and will do everything in his power to enhance your experience. Not too much fuss and all about fishing. Super fast and willing to change when something was stalling for more than 15-20 minutes. Fishing for both Coho and Spring, minding the boat, changing gears and speed, watchin everything ever so carefully. And not babysitting your actions - like it happens with some other tours. He kept his involvement into the drills at minimum. I would super recommend.

My brother was visiting the island and we had to cancel our annual trip to Bamfield due to a wildfire, so we booked 2 half-days with Captain Will in Nanaimo. He immediately put us on the fish each morning, we caught our limits in Chinook each day with plenty of keeper Coho and even a couple Pinks! Will was very knowledgeable, friendly and keen to make sure we had success, he was not afraid to pivot strategies or locations if we hit a lull in the action. I can’t recommend his services enough if you are in need of a charter in Nanaimo or Port Alberni!

I have never been fishing in the ocean before, and this was worth the trip! We were on a very comfortable boat. Will (charter owner) had excellent equipment and was happy to talk and answer any questions I had (I had a lot of them lol). Will is a younger fella and you could not tell! He treated us very well and you could tell as he was preparing the rods and the boat equipment he knew what he was doing and was about safety. You can tell he truly loves what he does. I was skeptical and nervous to grab the rod as we had a fish on but Will was very soft spoken and coached me through the process! The trip did get a little bumpy and Will made sure we were comfortable and gave his best advice on how to steer clear of sea sickness. As far as fishing charters on the island, this isn’t the fanciest endeavour by any means, but the boat was amazing! Very roomy, and had an overhead roof so we didn’t get spashled which was very nice! We ended up getting two really good fish and they tasted great! I would definitely recommend Will and his charter to anyone who’s looking for a fun trip on the water. Very nice guy and knew how to handle the trip. Will definitely be going again! He is worth the trip and the money

I booked this trip on behalf of my dad who is an experienced angler. During the trip, captain William was friendly and professional, giving expert advice on various methods from jigging to trolling. We caught 30+ fosh ranging from chinook salmon to coho and even lingcod. My dad had a memorable and wonderful experience which he thoroughly enjoyed. Thank you for making this an amazing experience!!

We were very happy with the trip! Will is very knowledgeable and truly enjoys what he's doing. He's also great with kids! Our 13 year old son loved it. We caught lots of fish, almost our limits, and would definitely come back to go fishing with him again!
