Northwest Fishing Team

Time to start stocking up on winter ocean treats. Book your winter fishing trip today @northwest.fishingteam

Taking bookings for the 2021 season. We still have some awesome dates available right now.

Very cool place to visit, unfortunately everything was closed when we tied up here for no lunch and no beer.

Albacore Tuna don’t have the physical make up to pump water through their gills efficiently. Instead they swim with their mouths open and have a highly efficient metabolism that allows them to swim up to 50 mph !!! Some of these fish get up to 80 lbs. Fun facts while waiting for the paint to dry on election results.

The youngsters prevailed on a very windy day on the Hurt Locker.

And what a year it’s been for all in this business/life. Most of us don’t get into this game to get rich. We have a compelling obsession to be on the water. In fact, I’d go as far as saying for some and myself, the need to fish is uncontrollable and life altering. Being able to share this with other people is one of the most gratifying experiences that will never get old.

Hurt Locker : 8 am -11 am. The boat can fish #northwestfishingteam #guidetoaguide #princerupertbc #worldclassfishing

Halibut >>>>Honestly one of the healthiest halibut fisheries I’ve ever guided. I would put it in my top 3! Anywhere from 30-90 minutes to get the job done. Which leaves more time to chase big kings! #worldclassfishing #princerupertbc #northwestfishingteam #guidetoaguide #simmsfishing #mercurymarine #avetreels

One of the most legit guys I’ve ever fished next to @haidafishingcharters #northwestfishingteam #guidetoaguide #mercurymarine #bostonwhaler #fishingprincerupert #worldclassfishery

One of my favourite spots to fish to date. Thanks to Strangler for all the stellar shots. #northwestfishingteam #guidetoaguide

Strolled through @haidafishingcharters office today and stole the stapler.

Who’s day off the water looks like this ? #sleepwhenyouredead #northwestfishingteam

Early enough, I’ve never been the first guy off the dock.

Great trip with Eric Hansen and his family. Eric grabbed his first Tyee this morning. #northwestfishingteam #guidetoaguide #islanderreels #riteanglefishing #dialedin

Found one by the kelp today. Bruno tagged this Tyee on a cut plug herring at 33’on the rigger, and proceeded an epic 30+ minute battle. The first Tyee on the Hurt Locker, Angled on The Asset R2MH from @riteanglefishing paired with a Islander MR3 mooching reel. #northwestfishingteam #princerupert #riteanglefishing #sportsfishinginbc #sportfishinginstitueofbc #scottydownriggers #islanderreels #48lbs

Going to be giving them a good work out with @riteanglefishing shortly and lay into some flatties. #northwestfishingteam #riteanglefishing #guidetoaguide #pennreels #pennfathom25nld2 #fredhallshow #longbeachca

This beach is one of my favourites. It provides a day of entertainment and good eats. #beaches #haidagwaii #northwestfishingteam

It seems that these two are an inseparable pair on the water. #islanderreels #scottyproducts #northwestfishingteam

Nothing gets me more jacked up then seeing a big fish swim away. #northwestfishingteam #guidetoaguide #tyee #chinooksalmon #westcoast #haidagwaii #fishing #fishinglife #swimanotherday #genepool

Looking forward to some green water again. #dungeonesscrab

The Wall. It doesn’t take long before this becomes one of your favourite spots to fish. #northwestfishingteam #guidetoaguide

Getting kids out fishing in the rain is awesome ! Teaches them that we’re not made of sugar! Way to go @ridgetec_cameras I can’t wait until we do this again #ridgetec_cameras #northwestfishingteam #guidetoaguide #kidsfishing #fishingvacation #westcoast #fishing

Mother & Daughter doubled up on some nice Kingaroo’s that fell for a couple of cut plugs at the infamous kelp bed off the meat hole at Skidegate Point, Haida Gwaii. Both fish were landed on @islanderreels MR3’s which made the perfect match fighting these fish. #islanderreels #northwestfishingteam #guidetoaguide #doubleheader #fishing #fishinglife #ladyanglernation #cutplug #oldschoolfishing #fishingvacation

Great time to book a trip with @northwest.fishingteam Swing by the booth @thesportshows here in Washington and make some plans for this 2020 season. #northwestfishingteam #guidetoaguide

Ray and Roswitha making the best of a rainy August day. Solid fishing in protected water #northwestfishingteam #guidetoaguide #chinooksalmon #fishing #fishingtrip

Let’s get after it in Sacramento. Stop by booth 3550 if you want to talk shop and plan a nice little trip up to Haida Gwaii, taking part in some of the best fishing our coast has to offer. #northwestfishingteam #guidetoaguide #sacramento #ise #internationalsportsmensexpo #fishingtrip

Beautiful winter day on Haida Gwaii #northwestfishingteam #winter #oceanview

Looking forward to a nice feed of prawns tonight. Happy New Years everyone. #northwestfishingteam #happynewyear #prawning

Looking forward to a good feast tonight. Happy New Year everyone.

The last day of the year is always better pulling prawn traps with your buddies. Thanks @geoffreymartynuik for the invite and @greenerwatersguided for the moral support and egg McBarney’s.

Tuna fishing keeps the deck busy... #northwestfishingteam #guidetoaguide #tunafishing #longfin #palegic #palegicgear #okumarods #powerprobraid #westcoast

You don’t have to go far to find volcanic rock beaches walking distance from our dock. #northwestfishingteam #volcanicrock #haidagwaii

Fresh smoked Chinook Salmon, never makes it to the freezer. Quite possibly the best snack on Earth. #northwestfishingteam #smokedfish #smokehouse #smokehousebbq #eatwild #fish

Very few places offer calm water on the west coast with an enjoyable commute. We can honestly say we have one of them @northwest.fishingteam
