RendezVous Fishing Charters brings you in and around the Nootka Sound at the head of the Tahsis Inlet on the beautiful West Coast of Vancouver Island, BC, Canada. Discovered by Captain Cook in 1778, this area abounds with the beginnings of British Columbia.

 

Nootka Island is unsurpassed in mountain scenery beauty and wildlife. This area is internationally known to have some of the best fishing in unspoiled and protected waters for Salmon (Chinook and Coho) and Halibut.

 

We include all the fishing gear with your 3 day charter (a total of 20 hours guided fishing).

 

A fishing license can be purchased upon arrival in Tahsis.

 

All fish caught will be cleaned and packed in ice for your return trip.

 

Fishing off Esperanza, Nuchatlitz and Tahsis Inlets is excellent for deep sea fishing and saltwater fly fishing.

 

Large spring or Chinook salmon migrate down the west coast of Vancouver Island on their way to their spawning grounds in the rivers of Vancouver Island and the coastal mainland of BC, by way of the Juan de Fuca Strait at the southern tip of the island. Salmon fishing begins in May and runs through to September, with the peak Springs run in mid August - Pin Rock and Black Rock off the entrance to Esperanza Inlet are popular spots for Springs.

 

The shelving bottom around Catala Island provides good bottom fishing, with halibut tipping the scales at between 40 and 200 pounds.
