Member since January 2024 Sooke, Canada
Background
Captain Andrew is a professional sport-fishing guide based in Sooke, British Columbia, with years of hands-on experience navigating and fishing the renowned waters of the Juan de Fuca Strait and Vancouver Island’s west coast. He is known for running safe, well-organized charters with an emphasis on comfort, efficiency, and adapting to conditions to give guests the best possible experience. Specializing in salmon, halibut, lingcod, and rockfish, Captain Andrew works closely with each group to tailor the day to their goals—whether that’s targeting trophy fish or enjoying a relaxed, high-quality day on the water. His approach combines local knowledge, professional standards, and genuine hospitality to deliver a polished, dependable charter experience.
Techniques
Captain Andrew primarily specializes in trolling for salmon, using proven West Coast techniques to efficiently cover productive water in the Juan de Fuca Strait. For halibut and bottom species, he relies on bottom fishing, often incorporating jigging when conditions allow for a more active, hands-on approach. On longer or multi-species trips, Andrew frequently combines these methods with drift fishing to adapt to tides, structure, and changing conditions throughout the day.
