A little about our operation...

The Guide: Brayden Bangert

Brayden’s passion for both sportfishing and guiding isn’t at all surprising. He was born in Victoria, and all of his 28 years have been spent on the shores and waters of south and central Vancouver Island. Brayden has always been a natural angler: he’s patient, persistent, and a keen observer and technician. He also happens to love boats—anything that floats, really—and he’s eager to meet and engage with new people no matter the circumstances. Guests, with or without saltwater angling experience, will enjoy Brayden’s easy-going nature as he shares his passion for fishing and his appreciation for the scenic waters around the Comox Valley. When Brayden isn’t prowling the Strait of Georgia, he’s completing his Bachelor of Commerce degree online and enjoying all the outdoor recreational opportunities on the doorsteps of Comox Valley residents.

The Boat

We intentionally chose the 30 foot Pursuit 2870 for our charter operation. We scored the 2870 very high for its fishability, comfort, safety, and performance. Our boat has the following features:

Roomy cockpit/rear deck—the dance floor—for cruising and reeling in the catch.
Convenient washdown equipment, ample storage, and large fish box to ensure a clean and tidy vessel
Open concept layout so up to 5 guests can relax, chat, and enjoy their day on the water.
Private washroom below deck
Diesel heater for chilly mornings or winter days.
Solid construction and stability. The boat handles our near-shore waters with confidence which means rides are safer, smoother, and more enjoyable.
2026 twin Yamaha outboards to enhance reliability and safety on the water

The Equipment

We run modern, well-maintained equipment to ensure our guests have the best fishing day possible. Our up-to-date electronics help us put our guests on the fish. We use top-of-the-line rods, downriggers, reels, and tackle for the best chance at success. All gear is carefully maintained, and we always carry spare equipment on board so charters run seamlessly from start to finish. Additionally, our vessel carries the necessary Transport Canada safety equipment.
