excursion with Clayoquot Ventures as an excellent way to promote employee and corporate relations, or as great family fun! Offshore Fishing - Chrome bright Chinook and Coho Salmon, powerful Halibut and plentiful Bottom-fish species make up the bounty of your fishing experience with us. The Tofino area is situated on the migration path of most major Salmon runs, along with a vast underwater shelf that provides ample baitfish and habitat for Halibut and Bottom-fish. Our comfortable and fully equipped offshore vessels feature covered cabins, toilets and open back decks. As a bonus, whales and other marine life are also common to the area. Inshore Light Tackle or Fly-fishing - Experience an exhilarating battle with a truly “Wild” Pacific Salmon while enjoying the scenic and pristine landscape of world famous Clayoquot Sound. Clayoquot Ventures’ inshore vessels are perfectly suited for fishing the near-shore “Hot spots” among the many islands and reefs that create such prime habitat for aggressively feeding Salmon. Tofino’s protected inshore waters have been labelled B.C.’s best choice for trolling or casting light tackle for acrobatic Coho Salmon or large Chinook, the “King of Salmon”. Fly anglers love it here! Our locally developed, custom tied Fly patterns can be “Bucktailed” on the surface or cast to Salmon feeding among the islands and kelp beds. Regardless of your previous fishing experience, you’ll be exhilarated bythe scenery and action. Freshwater - Experience the true west coast wilderness with a scenic flight to the remote coastal rivers and mountain lakes of Clayoquot Sound to fish Steelhead, Cutthroat or Rainbow Trout and fall salmon. Clayoquot Ventures offers full day as well as multi-day catch & release excursions deep into pristine old growth forest watersheds. Bring your camera and leave your worries behind.
