Sam, I just wanted to drop you a line and let you know the four of us had a very good time. Your brother Ray was excellent as he was able to keep us very busy and we caught lot’s of fish limiting out on most of them. The evening seafood dinner was second to none! Thanks and I look foreword to booking with you again.
Jim Johnston, Sherwood Park AB.
Sam, thanks for the incredible fishing! I’ve been fishing for thirty nine years and have never had such a great trip! It was quite a thing to see our group of twelve (three boats, three excellent skippers) all limited by 10am on Silvers and Kings two days in a row. I’ll be back!
Jon Unger, Seattle Washington
Sam, Thanks for the great fishing trip! My wife and two sons really enjoyed the three days fishing with you. Your really kept us on the bite and we ended up with a ton of fish! The seafood dinner was a memorable experience! Thanks so much,
Tim Gould Vancouver, BC
Sam, After being double-booked by another company, I really appreciate you saving our annual fishing trip. And what an amazing trip it was! We MAXED out our catch limit on the first day and only missed by one fish the second day. Seriously, the fish where on the line all day long, sometimes before we even had a chance to get the lines all the way down. Ray was great and really knows the waters off Ucluelet and the best fishing spots. My dad, uncle brother and myself have never had such a great time fishing, and we definitely want to come back again! Thanks again guys–you made our trip great and delivered more than we could have expected!
Thanks, Paul Turner, Vancouver BC.
Hey Sam, I still have such fond memories of you and of how well you treated Jim and me on our trip. The photos you took are on our kitchen refrigerator door and on the wall above my computer in my office at work. When work is tough, I look at that photo and laugh. You are to thank for that. Do keep in touch with us…
Kathy Shoop, Bow, Washington
Hi Sam, I have to say we all had a wonderful time… You have a jewel in Dan-the-man! He was the greatest – he did so much for us and I am very appreciative of his “going the extra mile” for us.
Thanks, We’ll be in touch again.
Karl Gregg, Vancouver BC
Hi Sam, Just a note to thank you for the great time fishing from Ucluelet. Fishing surpassed our expectations with 4 between 25 lbs and 30 lbs after only one day. We are still enjoying that beautiful wild west coast salmon. You should definitely recommend people to book early as fishing dates and accommodations go very quickly!
Bob and Jim Tritschler, Parksville on Vancouver Island BC
Thanks for a great trip–its a trip I’ll never forget.
Rick Browne, Ready Aim Grill (The Outdoor Channel)
Sam, I want you to know that the fishing trip with you will always be a great memory. I just wanted to let you know that my daughter’s 35lb King is still a topic of conversation. We call her “Fish Goddess”, which she hates, but still smiles a lot when we mention it. We are planning to come back this year. Thanks,
Frank Avery, Kirkland, Washington
I was just showing my mom and dad your website and was telling them about fishing with yourself at the end of June. Dave and I had a great time and we truly enjoyed the experience.
Daren Kennett, Strathmore, Alberta
Sam – I just wanted to thank you, Ray & Sim for the wonderful time our family had while fishing in Ucluelet last week!
Barbara Moen, Coeur d’Alene, Idaho
Many thanks for giving our family such a memorable fishing adventure. The fish made it home safely, though we did need to buy another cooler!
Ellen Gould, Vancouver BC
Thanks for the wonderful time. We spread your name at the airport while showing off our four boxes of fish –it was great!
Kim Hewson, Monticello, Minnesota
Well I am back here in Austin and wishing I were fishing on the boat in Ucluelet. I cannot thank you and Ray enough for providing the best fishing experience in our lives and we have been on a few. I am touting you guys to everyone and one of these days someone will “bite” and you will have another satisfied customer. As my son Dallas told you at the fish depot, the guy he gave the other fish to on the dock, he told him you were the best and I hope he hired you guys.
Randy Lee, Austin Texas
Hey Sam and Ray…I just want to say THANK YOU for the best fishing trip ever in my life….
Best regards, Lelle from Sweden.
Thanks for the experience of a lifetime. Your friendliness, fishing techniques and boat handling was greatly appreciated. I will definitely be recommending you to my friends. Thanks for a great time and I plan to fish with you as often as I can!
Bill Souza, Sequim, Washington
Thanks for a dream fishing trip. I’m pretty sure we had the biggest fish of the day! I just watched the video of our fishing trip again and it seems like yesterday. Simeon was great and really knew where to get us the big one. He’s a celebrity out there! We had a great time with him! By the way, I didn’t think seeing whales would be a big deal…but it was a big highlight. Thanks again and we will be contacting you again soon!
Mike Yamada, Bellevue Washington
Sam, Once again I find myself reviewing the pictures from our June trip with you guys. We had a fantastic time and hope to return soon. Thanks!
Mark Varble, Lawrence, Kansas
Thanks for a great fishing trip! Ray was fun to be with and a very knowledgable and experienced fishing guide. He was a huge help while I was bringing in the BIG salmon. The overnight accomodations you arranged were great. When not fishing, we really enjoyed walking the Wild Pacific Trail, browsing the little shops, and sampling the restaurants. We look forward to our next fishing trip with you next summer! Thanks again.
Marilyn Moses, Tacoma, Washington
Hi Sam, just wanted to thank you and your brother Ray for the fine guided fishing expeditions we had. The boys had a blast and i know my dad had a wonderful time. We will be sure to tell everyone out here in Manitoba about you guys and if anyone is wanting to go fishing we will be sure to tell them it’s worth the trip to Ucluelet and will definitely give them your charter name. Thanks again and have a great summer.
Warren Polk, Virden, Manatoba
Thanks for another great fishing trip this year. We had another enjoyable trip to beautiful BC. We are always impressed with the service and fishing at Salmon Eye Fishing Charters.
Eric Baird, Idaho Falls, Idaho
Sam! All is well here and we’re right in the middle of our guiding season. The hunting is going well and the clients are happy. I wanted to thank you and Ray once again for an awesome fishing trip and for getting me the big one. I’ll attach a few pics for you to use if you want.
Jeff Condie, Grand Prarie, Alberta
Sam!!! How have you been? To be honest, we still have some fish from our fishing trip hehe!! It’s still delicious though. I’m glad we had them vacuum packed and flash frozen. After years of fishing with other guides, fishing with you was not only the most fun, but also the most productive!
Clarence Ang, Vancouver, BC
Thanks for a great late September fishing trip! It was hard to believe that once we threw our lines in the fish were hooked in minutes. Thanks for helping us with getting the salmon and halibut smoked and packaged to send back to California. All our fish arrived looking great and tasting wonderful!! This was a huge day of fun for my husband and me!!
Cathy King, Riverside California
Sam, This is for your testimonial page. As CEO of Little Skookum Shellfish Growers, LLC, in Shelton WA, I sent our two top managers and our engineering consultant out with Salmon Eye Fishing Charters for a 2 day fishing trip in early September, 2006, as a reward for a very good efforts. We limited out each day on salmon and halibut, but seeing a large Grey Whale breach entirely out of the water out on La Perouse bank made for memories of a lifetime from the trip. Thanks to both of you for a memorable trip, the pictures of us with bent rods are on the wall of our offices.
Peter Becker, Ph.D.,CEO, Little Skookum Shellfish Growers, LLC, Shelton, Washington
We had a really great time on our fishing trip and we are definately looking forward to our next Vancouver Island vacation to have another go at those salmon with Salmon Eye Charters. Please use the pics if they are suitable for you and have a wonderful off-season. Thank you again.
Devon Werenka (Alberta) for Karl Letourneau and Jeff Banks.
Coming all the way from Spain to fish in Canada is something you do only maybe once in your life. Many Europeans talking about it and I was thinking to do it for over 15 years. The first time I fished was really an experience– your guidance and service was wonderful and the catch of a 38 pound Salmon was the topping of the ice-cream - thanks for all and maybe we will make another fishing trip with what will be for sure with your Company - relaxed and only good times.
Thanks. Alfred & Marcel, Alicante, Spain
Awesome video Sam. The trip my wife and I took with you was the highlight of our honeymoon. I will be back some day… sooner rather than later.
Aaron Cutler, Brandon MB
Sam, Thanks to you and Dan for providing us with a great fishing trip in 2007! We’re still eating the salmon and halibut we brought home with us — I just hope we can make it last until we get back to Ucluelet!
