Winter Harbour Sports fishiing is second to none in the World. Steve aggressively fishes guest for Chinook Salmon, Coho Salmon, Halibut, Ling Cod, Rock Fish, Snapper & other Ground Fish.

Photographers Take Note: Be sure and bring your camera as this will not just be a Reel Crazy Fishing Charter but also a Wildlife Photography Adventure. Wildlife photo opportunities abound on Northern Vancouver Island’s Quatsino Sound region, the envy of many a world class wilderness/wildlife photographer.
Steve's 25.5 foot Parker Pilot House FV Reel Crazy is equipped with enough HP & state of the art equipment to get us to the fish and get the fish in the boat. Our Parker has a huge aft fishing platform and a pilot house to keep us dry during rainy weather. Marine head is available.
Tuna Fishing Vancouver Island (2017)
Tuna Fishing Winter Harbour starts in late August. Space is limited because of short season. Winter Harbour Tuna Fishing trips will have 4 fishers per boat. We usually leave around 5am and head out to the Tuna grounds depending on the water temp. It's fun. We tie it in with some coho fishing & anchor up for some hali's on the way in.
