Last Chance Fishing Adventures runs guided salmon trips out of Sooke, west of Victoria. The skipper is the heart of every review: guests describe him as friendly, witty and full of local knowledge, and several say he kept everyone laughing all trip.
Reviewers report getting into fish quickly and keeping the action going, with the skipper switching lures and tactics when things slowed. Catches mentioned include chinook, coho and pink salmon, with some fish in the 12 to 20 pound range. He explains what to bring and how everything works, and he cleans and bags the catch at the end.
Extras come up again and again: pulling crab traps on the way in, feeding seals at the dock, and seeing humpback whales and sea lions. He has fit families and groups in at short notice, including one pickup from a guest's own cottage dock. Families with young kids, first-timers and groups celebrating a birthday all say it suited them.
The record is close to spotless, with 18 of 19 reviews at five stars. Late-season trips may be slower, so ask about current fishing when you book.
