Elephant Eye Charters is a small owner-operated fishing charter business specializing in day fishing and scenic wildlife trips in the Lasqueti Island area. Elephant Eye point (pictured above) is a distinct natural feature which resembles an elephant, a landmark for fishermen for many decades.
We offer unique salmon and prawn fishing charters in the central Georgia Straight region for individuals and groups up to three. We are based out of beautiful Lasqueti Island, located 15 km. north of Parksville. (see map) We are excellently situated to intercept resident and migrating chinook salmon who feed on the massive schools of herring before proceeding to their natal rivers and streams. Very strong returns of chinook have reestablished the area as a great fishing destination. There are numerous hot spots 10-20 minutes from the Lasqueti Island ferry dock in False Bay. Lasqueti is a serene and unfrequented area which is exquisitely beautiful and incomparable to its untouched state. There are numerous parks, landmarks and natural features worthy of visiting which include Sangster Island, Jedediah Provincial Marine Park, Hornby Island, the Sabine Channel and Squitty Bay Provincial Park. Come to Lasqueti for the day or to stay for a few days at the Blue Roof Hotel or one of our B+B's for an unforgettable experience! See the Lasqueti Island website for more information about the Island.
Our vessel is a 22 foot Grady White Seafarer professionally re-built by Brandt Marine. It is an ideally outfitted boat for these waters. We have satellite radio and Ipod-capable music system onboard.
