Fishing Charters

Abbeymoore is pleased to partner with D&D Fishing Charters in Sooke BC.  Doug and Diana's new boat is a 24 foot Skagit Orca XLC Extended Cabin.  It's powered by new F 250 hp and T9.9 Yamaha four stroke engines, two of the most environmentally-friendly engines on the market. The cabin is heated and well insulated with windows all around for light and ventilation. The galley has a sink, 2 burner stove and a fridge stocked with water, pop and juice.

Your guide, Doug Ferrier, is Transport Canada Marine Certified in marine safety and is a fully certified commercial marine operator.  Doug has been an avid fisherman for over 40 years and in 2003 he landed the largest salmon caught on Vancouver Island that year. A 62.55 pound Chinook salmon with an overall length of 48 inches and a girth of just over 35 inches.    Now that's a BIG ONE!

If you are interested in an amazing day on the water just let us know and we'll make all the arrangements. Booking Early is advisable.  If booking directly please say hi to Doug & Dianne for us!
