star rating  We wanted to catch a salmon for our dinner and hoped to see whales. With the help of Scott, our captain, we managed both. It was an unforgettable experience! ... read more /> When we actually saw the two whales, we were thrilled! The boat stopped at a proper distance and then something unbelievable happened - both whales set course for our boat. They swam around the boat and under it. Scott carefully tried to get some distance to the animals. He was very worried, he didn't want to hurt them. But the animals just followed the boat for quite a while.
We were very impressed with Scott's prudence in not harming the whales. MUCH THANKS!
If you want to visit Campbell River and go fishing or see whales, we recommend you do it with Scott. It is a lot of fun and you are in good hands on Scott's boat. We could convince ourselves of that.
Greetings to Scott from Katrin, Erik, Diana and Thomas! More

star rating  Campbell River Fishing with Riptide Charters & Captain Scott - I totally concur with Eric L.
The fishing with Captain Scott  was EXCELLENT! 
He is a friendly person and very knowledgeable of the fishing area locally.
We chartered the... read more boat with Captain Scott for 10 hours.
It was a beautiful sunny day [25+ Deg.C] and calm waters.
After catching our fish limit early, Captain Scott took us whale watching nearby. What a BONUS on our fishing trip. 
On our return, Captain Scott cleaned and packed our fish at the dock while feeding a couple of local seals hanging around.   Captain Scott also recommended a local restaurant where they were able to cook one of our fresh catch of the day for our dinner that night to round off the day.
Given the opportunity, I would definitely do it again and strongly recommend Riptide Charters with Captain Scott. The boat Kratzsea is ideal for 4 adults fishing.

star rating  What a great day on the water with Captain Scott at Riptide Fishing! Not the best weather but by far the best fishing chat=rter on the water. We... read more wanted our son and his girlfriend (first time fisher) to have the best introduction to fishing and were not disappointed. We've fished with Scott before and would recommend him to anyone and every one. 4 licenses on the boat and we all limited out in less than 8 hours! Boats all around us getting skunked! No doubt Captain Scott is the best guide in Campbell River! Looking forward to our nest time out!!

My nephew and I had a great day fishing with Scott. The boat and fishing gear were clean and in as-new shape. Scott was on top of everything on a busy day. Lots of fish on the line, he was often dealing with us each having a fish on at the same time. Scott knew where the fish were and we seemed to be catching more than the boats around us.

Op 9 augustus 2022 zijn wij (koppel uit Nederland) wezen vissen met Scott. Wat een relaxte gast! Hij is geinteresseerd in zijn gasten en is ook open over zichzelf. Een man van normen en waarden, zeer respectvol. Ook vertelt hij meer dan alleen hoe je moet vissen, ook de strategie erachter. Mijn partner vist ook graag in Nederland, dus ze hadden veel te praten, maar mij vergat hij zeker niet! Ook moedigt hij je aan zodra je beet hebt. Een dikke vette 10 voor Scott! Echte aanrader om met hem de zee op te gaan. Ook als je nog nooit gevist hebt, twijfel niet. Het is echt elke €\$ waard! Scott, bedankt!

My husband and I are from Alberta and came to visit cousins Geoff and Shannon Orlick. They took us on this tour and WOW is all I can say!!! Scott was an awesome host. My husband was able to scratch salmon fishing off of his bucket list. The whale watching was fantastic and the swim was even better. Thanks so much and will tell everyone about you!!! We will definitely be back. We'll worth it!!!

My husband & I went out with Capt Scott and had a great time! We got our limit in Salmon within an hour; we also saw sea lions, seals, otters, humpback whales, porpoises, and a helicopter landing on a yatch! Scott’s boat is clean & well kept & he is a pleasure to be around; very knowledgeable. Although my husband did catch the biggest fish; I caught more lol. We will definitely go out with Capt Scott again :)

Scott was awesome, very personable and knowledgeable. He took us out for five hours, and we managed 4 keeper salmon, and quite a few that were just undersized. The boat and equipment were top quality and Scott knew all the hot spots.

Great day of fishing today. Scott is an awesome captain, clean boat and let us be involved in the process as much as we wanted. We had a lot of action and limited out on the salmon. There were whales breaching and incredible sunrise. Highly recommended.
