Background: I have been avidly fishing local waters around Vancouver and Vancouver Island since I was a little boy. I still feel like that little boy when I am out on the water chasing Salmon. I just love sharing, teaching, and guiding anglers of all experience levels. I feel lucky to get the opportunity to share the beauty of our local area as well as the bounty of our Salmon and Crab fishing with guests from all around the globe. I enjoy watching the big smiles of kids of all ages hook into and fight a wild Pacific Salmon. I am an airline pilot by profession but my passion is fishing and in particular Salmon fishing on the ocean. You are in great hands with me or one of my professional guides. Pursuit Sport Fishing has been in operation since 2012.
Techniques: We mainly troll with downriggers with artificial and frozen bait. We will also cast light tackle to schooling salmon seasonally as the runs permit.

Amazing Fishing

Jan 7, 2025 Richmond

We have been enjoying some of the best chinook fishing we have ever seen this past month. We are expecting more of the same for several more weeks. Book now for the best salmon fishing of the year.

Coho salmon have arrived. Hot Fishing

Jun 2, 2024 Richmond

The June 1 opening for coho salmon did not disappoint. We got easy limits of hatchery coho for our guests along with numerous big chinook salmon to ne released. June and Nuly are going to ne a great month for salmon fishing. Book now.

Excellent Chinook fishing

Jan 2, 2024 Richmond

We’ve been experiencing excellent Chinook salmon for months with anticipation of an excellent spring ahead. Great size so far.

Excellent salmon fishing now!

Jun 21, 2023 Richmond

We are enjoying excellent salmon fishing for chinook and coho salmon now. Chinook salmon are catch and release until August 1 but retention of coho salmon is available. Crab fishing has been slow. Book now while as we are filling up fast.

Excellent Chinook fishing

Mei 4, 2023 Richmond

Currently, the chinook fishing is exceptional. Although it is catch and release only we are having amazing catches of chinook salmon. Crab fishing has been decent. This is a great opportunity to create memories. Take some great photos and have a wonderful day perhaps doing something you’ve never done before.

Good chinook bite lately

Maa 22, 2023 Richmond

We’ve been having some very good chinook fishing the last month here in local waters around Vancouver. Trolling a variety of artificial spoons and squid patterns have been producing on the Tide changes. Crab fishing has been average and prawn fishing has been good.

Our trip started out like many, searching online, trying to choose a fishing charter amongst all the listings. For some reason, I kept coming back to Pursuit Sport Fishing and I’m glad I did. We had never been on a charter before and I had many questions. Dan (owner) always got back to me quickly either by email, text, or calling and took any doubts I had out of the process. We met Captain Ken on the morning of our charter who took us out to fishing spot #1. After about an hour, we weren’t... More

Under tough water conditions we were still able to land some nice size salmon for a couple of dinners.

Thanks for the review, Mick. We enjoyed having you out fishing with us. Thank you for the feedback about the one a legged uncomfortable cushion on my 25’ Grady White. I do work hard to keep it clean and in perfect working order. I’ll have a look and see if I can find that 1 cushion you didn’t like. I get piles of compliments about the boat.
