The Fish Whisperer Reel Fishing Adventures will not disappoint! Had an incredible day fishing with my sons, and it’s all thanks to Mark. He’s not just a great guide—he’s the fish whisperer! His boat was spotless, fully stocked with gear, and he knew exactly where to find the fish.As if reeling in some great catches wasn’t enough, Mark took the experience to the next level. We limited out on salmon and got some halibut. Mark spotted a killer whale for us and shared his insider tips on crabbing. To top it all off, we ended the day with a fantastic barbecue.If you’re looking for an unforgettable fishing trip, look no further. We’ll definitely be back!

Amazing fishing charter I can't say enough good things about Mark. He is an amazing guide, very patient and friendly. Personalable and really takes the time to make sure that you have a great time on the water. I will definitely go on another charter with him. He knows his salmon and halibut fishing and will take the time to give you detailed instructions on how to fight big fish. Thanks again Mark for an amazing day on the water.

2 1/2 day charter 3 of us booked a charter with Mark’s reel fishing adventure. We had fun caugh good fish. Boat was well looked after and clean. We caught sockeyes coho rock fish and I know if my stomach could have handled the rough seas we would have caugh halibut also. The boat is a 32 foot so is very comfortable for the 3 of us. It was kept very clean. Every time we brought a fish in the boat was washed down so no fish smell. He grew up on the ocean so knows it well. I would recommend it for everyone to go on

Summer salmon slam! What a day! Luck was on our side, or was it the hard working captain mark? A gloomy day turned to sunny skies and the ocean was glass. Mark took the time to try different spots and depths to ensure we found the fish… and we did! After limiting out on chinooks, mark promptly reeled in and travelled to a new spot to target coho and it paid off. Being a first time salmon fisher lady myself, mark was patient and gave great direction, his laid back personality made for a great first experience fishing in ucluelet. Great perks - there was a bathroom on board, everything was spotless and it was a comfortable ride.

Wonderful 2 Day Anniversary/Fishing Charter From the time we met Mark at his expertly outfitted boat to when we left the next day we could not have enjoyed our time more. With our limit of salmon in hand (and halibut) we left with smiles on our faces and our favourite food expertly processed and being shipped home. Mark is a friendly, professional and safety conscious skipper, which made my wife very happy. We will likely make this an annual trip and Mark will for sure be our skipper. Thanks so much!

Great family fishing adventure! We hired Mark on July 18th 2021 to go fishing as a family. Mark was honest and said there are no guarantees fishing but said he would work hard for us and he really delivered! We had a great morning and our children all landed very big salmon! Many people on the dock were asking where we caught the big fish! Huge memories for our children ! Thank you Mark we will not hesitate to hire your experience again!
