Fishing Storie Charters is a Campbell River salmon charter run by Jason Storie with a small team of guides. It has a perfect five-star record across 177 reviews, and guests keep coming back to how organised it is, from quick replies and short-notice bookings through to the day on the water.
Guides are described as patient, funny and generous with tips, and good gear is supplied. Reviewers report strong chinook and coho fishing, a five-hour trip with 25 to 30 salmon, and personal-best fish over 20 pounds. The owner's boat is fully covered and warm, which made a December winter chinook trip comfortable. Prawn traps, photos and video of the day, and fish cleaned and packed for travel all get mentions, along with pointers to local processors for filleting and vacuum sealing.
Trips range from four-hour introductory outings to full and evening charters, and Google lists family and kids' discounts. Many reviewers were first-timers or bringing kids and adult children fishing for the first time. Wildlife is a common bonus, with whales, sea lions and seals. One group finished the day by having their catch cooked at a local restaurant.
There are no complaints in the reviews. With several guides on the team, you may not get the owner himself, but guests speak just as highly of the other captains. Book ahead in summer, though short-notice trips have worked out for some.
