Our calm, protected waters are rich with aquatic life and offer one of the most unique saltwater fishing experiences on the British Columbia Coast.
Our 4-day and 5-day all-inclusive fishing packages on Vancouver Island offer access to remote coastal fishing grounds, premium fish processing, luxury accommodations and dining, wine and spirits. We fish for five species of Pacific salmon, halibut, lingcod, and other bottomfish just minutes from our dock.
Anglers can fish daily with our fully-certified, experienced guide equipped with top-of-the-line rods, reels, and gear. Whether you’re a seasoned angler or fishing for the first time, Sointula Lodge’s all-inclusive Canadian fishing trips will create lasting memories.

Our fleet consists of five 27’ custom built NorthRiver Sea Hawk OS’ vessels built in 2021 and 2023. The boats have fully enclosed heated cabins, private bathrooms, suspension seating as well as Transport Canada Approved safety equipment for your comfort.
All of our boats are equipped with state of the art Lowrance Radar, GPS, and depth sounder units to make sure you can find the fish and stay on top of them. Our vessels are powered by 250HP yamaha outboards, and our top of the line fishing rods and reels ensure you don’t lose that fish of a lifetime.

Fishing Policy & Limits
Guests can either release or catch and harvest their fish within British Columbia tidal water limits. Your guide will brief you on catch limits. You may visit the current British Columbia regulations guide if you are interested in learning more about the regulations for fishing in Area 12.
Your Catch
After your day of fishing, we’ll weigh in your catch for bragging rights. Our team will professionally process your fish while you hit the deck for happy hour. Upon departure from Sointula Lodge, we’ll load all the fish you caught into an insulated box for the ride home. Your fish boxes can be checked as luggage on commercial flights. In the last couple years fish caught at Sointula Lodge have flown as far as France, Norway, Bahrain and Australia!
