Ive been on a lot of fishing charters in my time primarily in oz so you get to know when you are on to... More

This was our second trip out fishing offshore in Tofino with Jay Mohl; owner and operator. Jay has been at this a long time, and it shows. In spite of it being very early in the season we had great success with both Chinook and halibut. The boats and equipment are well maintained, comfortable and safe. Good fishing and good... More

My family and I were attending a wedding in Tofino and I made a last minute decision to go fishing one of the days while we were in the area. It was one of the best decisions I've ever made! Jay (the guide & owner) was awesome to deal with, great communication leading up to our day on the water... More

My son Had to go fishing as part of our trip to BC. Although neither my wife nor I are dedicated anglers, we wanted to give it a go as well. We chose to go inland fishing given that it is generally calmer than open sea fishing. Our guide, Flo, was great. We told him that the trip was for... More

Great day on the water in amazingly beautiful surroundings. Thanks Flo, for making me feel better after I farmed the 1st hooked fish. He told me only 20-30% of barbless, fly hooked fish are landed, as I proceeded to land the next 6 fish hooked. Excellent job cleaning the catch back at the dock. I would come back and fish... More

My husband booked this trip as he loves fishing but I have been on a guided in-shore trip before and enjoy fishing too. From early on, Jay was always very professional and available to speak with regarding any questions we had. Our guide was Flo Besson and he was a fantastic guide. He knew exactly where to go to catch... More

We had a fantastic fishing trip with the kids in Tofino in August 2011. When they say there are lots of fish, they are completely right. We have had fishing tours in many places, in some of them we caught fish in others don't. But the amazing thing of this place is that you fish a lot and look that... More

Clayoquot Ventures Fishing Charters I had planned a an ocean salmon fishing excursion in August 2011 in Tofino for my 2 sons since April. Although we have all fished before - on lakes and in streams - we had never fished for salmon on the ocean. We had an absolutely magical time. The skipper was an expert who took us... More

My dad and I had a terrific time with Clayoquot Adventures. I had used them before, but this time was even better because it was a father /son trip that might be my last. Matt was terrific and catered to all our needs and was awesome at handling our expectations. Matt taught me to cast a fly and did such... More
