We had an absolutely outstanding half-day private tour with Ryan at the end of August.
Our group included two families from Germany, with two children aged 6 and 10. This tour was unlike anything we've ever experienced, and it far surpassed our previous experiences with larger tour operators in Tofino.
Ryan crafted a truly customized adventure for us, seamlessly blending an incredible fishing experience for both the adults and kids. Unforgettable memory of catching Chinook salmon, an experience that felt like a blessing, and the respectful and unforgettable catch-and-release of some reef fish.
Before and after our fishing excursion, we had the privilege of witnessing majestic bald eagles, playful sea lions, and charming otters in their natural habitat. This entire experience left an indelible mark on our lives, and we are immensely grateful for the private tour, the profound respect for nature and life, and Ryan's expertise in exploring the environment he grew up in.
Without hesitation, we wholeheartedly recommend this family-owned tour specialist to anyone seeking an exceptional and one-of-a-kind adventure on Vancouver Island. It truly exceeded our expectations and will be a memory for years.

We recently went out for a one day fishing excursion with Ryan.
I can't even think of anything remotely negative to say about this trip. Everything was just absolutely fantastic! The vessel was fast and smooth with plenty of room and seating for the four of us. It was equipped with a small but more than adequate bathroom. I only mention this because people are always wondering. The fishing was excellent. We caught 13, mostly salmon, in just over 6 hours but had many more slip off our hooks. Sportfishing is a skill folks. Our captain Ryan was awesome! He knew right where to go for the best action. He provided us with great guidance and instruction on how to properly fish and bring in our catch. Ryan's a local guy, born and raised in the area so he's highly skilled and very knowledgeable. To top it off he was super chill with a good sense of humor. Important if you're gonna spend an entire day with someone you just met. Throw in the fact that the weather was perfect and the seas were almost flat calm and this was a picture perfect day of ocean fishing that none of us will soon forget. I highly recommend this experience with these guys!

Just got back from my 3rd consecutive yearly fishing trip with Cameron Ocean adventures.
Another exceptional year we hit our limit fast hit a double header right out of the gate within 5 minutes of the lines being in the water Landed both and the action kept going and going all day long. Ryan excellent work ethic kept sending the lines down quick and we kept hauling them in. Boat was excellent as always got a little chilly so heading inside the heated cabin for a snack and to warm was a nice quick break ! Stop looking elsewhere these are the guys to book with I have fished with many guys all up and down the coast from Haida Gwaii to San Diego.......Cameron Ocean adventures is now my go to fishing trip EVERY year cannot say enough good things about these guys. BOOK NOW you will NOT be disapointed !!

I was just in Ucluelet on a two day fishing trip with a friend and we booked 2 days of fishing.
Now this is pretty much the end of the fishing season in that area. We were lucky enough to get Ryan as our guide. Ryan has been a fisherman for most of his life and it really shows. Not only was he able to put us on fish both days he was able to give us an amazing amount of information about the area and always had a smile on. I will be heading back to Cameron charter’s very soon. I will be bringing other friends to enjoy the awesome time. Thanks for everything Ryan. I am glad to recommend Cameron’s charters to anyone who really wants to have a good time on the water.

We had an amazing day on the water this past weekend with Ryan!
My husband and I took our fathers out to celebrate Father’s Day, and it couldn’t have been better! We limited out on Coho and Chinook and took home some white fish as well. Our guide Ryan was not only very knowledgable of the local waters and area, but also just an all around GREAT guy! We had an awesome day of laughs and we can’t wait to book with Ryan again!
