Thanks Chris for the great hospitality, guidance on how to reel-in and keep the catch, superb boating knowledge (felt totally safe), and gutted/cleaned the fish on our way out! From start to finish you do it all!!

We had an amazing day on the water. Chris was punctual and prepared for a day of fishing. He had checked weather, wind and current patterns for the day which provided optimal conditions. The boat was clean and comfortable. Chris is a knowledgeable and hardworking guide . . . If I’m ever in the area again I’ll be giving Chris a call.

Top notch captain and a top notch experience. Explained every detail and possible scenario and found the fish. I have hired charters in the Atlantic, the Pacific, the Caribbean, and the Gulf of Mexico and Captain Chris and Outsider provided the best experience I have had to date for me and my family. I would recommend for the grizzled seasoned angler and for the first time fishing family alike.

My family spent two fabulous days on the water with Outsider Charters in Campbell River. Comfortable, spacious boat. Chris is a great guide; professional, knowledgeable and personable. Chris also took care to show us the beautiful scenery of the ocean and the islands near Campbell River. We had a great time! I think we’re hooked! Thank you, Chris.

Outstanding. We went with Chris and had the most wonderful experience. His boat is really comfortable, the fishing experience and his guidance was just great. Even though the sea was a bit choppy he guided it all the time. I would recommend him with no hesitation.

Took my husband out with Chris for his retirement and it was the highlight of our trip. Such an awesome day. Tons of fish. Great weather and a ton of laughs. Couldn’t have chosen a better fishing charter

Fantastic day on the ocean! I’d like to give kudos to Chris and Outside Charters. We enjoyed a great day salmon fishing. Chris is knowledgeable, friendly and has one of the nicest and best equipped fishing boats on the west coast. The full cabin was nice to be able to get in out of the elements . . . Highly recommend booking a charter and we will definitely use him again.

Excellent Charter. Chris was a great guide and host and definitely wanted us to enjoy the fishing experience. His boat was very clean and well equipped. Chris was very knowledgeable on where and how to fish and catered to me being a novice, his patience and friendly demeanor was amazing. Both my husband and I can’t say enough great things about what an amazing experience we had. It was such an enjoyable afternoon and we will definitely come back . . .

Outstanding. Chris is a great guide. So friendly and knowledgable. Most patient person i have met and knows where the fish are 👍 Great guide so friendly. Great guy not to mention one of the nicest boats i’ve fished off…we’ll be going again as soon as i can

A great day out with Chris and Outside Charters. Orcas, eagles, dolphins and fish! Chris worked hard to find the fish and he delivered a hard fighting 77 cm chinook on a day when the fish were elusive. A beautiful, well outfitted boat in pristine condition. Thanks Chris. It was a pleasure to spend the day with you. We’ll be back!

Had an amazing day on the water. Chris’s experience and local knowledge was top notch. Couldn’t have asked for a better fishing guide. Put us on the fish right away and gave us an experience that will last a lifetime. Thank you so much Chris.

Chris is the fishing boat captain…and he is fantastic! Good humoured, accommodating and proficient . . . you will find and catch fish on this charter! The boat is excellent! Wide and stable with a great fishing deck, there is room for a group to move and fight the salmon. The rigging and gear are top notch, you’d expect nothing less from a true enthusiast like Chris . . .

I have been fishing British Columbia for many years, and Outsider Charters provided the best fishing experience I have ever had. Chris proved to be highly professional, extremely knowledgable, and very friendly and courteous. Chris had no problem finding us plenty of fish . . . I could not recommend Chris’ Outsider Charters Inc. strongly enough. A pure delight.

Trip was amazing, Chris is a great guy…very knowledgeable, a professional, and the tunes were the best! Definitely recommend to anyone, way above our expectations

This was our second year fishing with Chris. It’s never a dull moment and something I look forward to every year now. Chris works his ass off in order to provide the best fishing experience possible. Already starting to plan for next year, I can’t say enough about Outsider Charters!

Outsider Charters Inc. provided an excellent fishing experience. It was our first deep sea fishing trip. Chris made us feel comfortable from the beginning, explaining the basics of fishing, step by step. It was clear he was very experienced, enjoyed what he did, and made it fun. We even were fortunate to see 3 Humpback whales . . .

What a blast. A day with Outsider Charters is a day well spent. I’ve been on a few fishing trips, but this ranks the best. Excellent knowledgable guide who has time and focus on you and your needs. Comfortable extremely clean boat with excellent fishing equipment . . . Chris is convivial, humorous and a first rate fish guide. If you want to have a fishing adventure of a lifetime, use Outsider Charters.

Loved our day out with Chris!! Caught a lot and had a blast in the process. We were new to fishing so we learned a ton. Chris was super flexible with the plan for the day so we did a mix of fishing and covered some ground to check out the surrounding area. So good!

What a blast. Captain was super knowledgable about fishing . . . it was clear he was focused on making sure the group had a good time. Boat was perfect for a group, lots of space to spread out and a good mix of inside and outside space. I’ve done several fishing charters in the past, and this was by far the best.

Outsider Charters was a great choice for a coastal waters fishing experience. Chris is an outstanding guide, paying attention to every detail for a very positive experience. Wicked boat, clean and comfortable and the gear he uses for salmon and jigging for cod is top notch. Not a bad day on the water when you catch your limits, see some humpback whales and do some touring around the islands. Awesome day!

My husband and I had such an incredible time out on the water fishing salmon with Chris and Outsider Charters, it was my first time fishing and Chris was a knowledgeable, kind, and patient guide and teacher. We had an amazing time fishing, chatting, and enjoying the marine life . . . We enjoyed our time so much that we plan on coming back next year and perhaps making this into our new family tradition!

Had a fantastic afternoon salmon fishing with Chris. Chris is a very personable person and is a very interesting person to talk to, and he knows a lot about fishing too. He helped us land a couple of massive ones. He is great with kids too! If you are looking to go fishing in Campbell River, I would recommend you hire Chris for a few hours.

Great afternoon with excellent memories. A fun experience with my son and two grandchildren. Knowledgeable captain made it very interesting and safe. The 30 lb salmon took some landing!!

Excellent outing, professional guidance. Big fish & good times. The most fun I’ve had on the water in years. I’ll most definitely be back for more.

Strongly recommended. Chris is a great guy and knows how to catch fish. Very professional and a very nice clean and organized boat.. A1 all the way.

Awesome day out fishing with Chris. Super knowlegable, caught some hard fighting Chinook, great conversation, lots of knowledge on the area, including wildlife on the nearby islands. We were able to visit a sea lion colony after we caught more than enough Salmon early in the morning.

Definately a worthwhile trip to take. From lots of salmon and bottom fish to experiencing the breathtaking scenery and wildlife capt. chris has you covered. The moment you step onto the more than comfortable boat you can tell your in good hands . The boat and equipment are spotless and well kept . His jovial manner and knowledge of the area are an amazing bonus to the great fishing.

Picked Outsider at random off of the web and it was like winning the lottery! Chris was a fantastic captain and host on a clean, well equipped, warm and comfortable boat for our five hour fishing/whale watching trip. The four of us are still talking about it . . . we had a great day on the water. There were even whales! Highly recommended . . .

Cannot recommend booking with Chris enough! We had such a fantastic day out on the water. He was fantastic with both an experienced fisher as well as someone just learning. The boat had everything you would need for a comfortable day out fishing regardless of weather. We will definitely be booking back with him the next time we go to Campbell River!

What an incredible day on the water! My previous and limited fishing experience years ago was good, but nothing like Chris provides. He found the fish, talked us through the experience of reeling the salmon in , and had us feeling like veteran fisherman by the end of the day. His boat has it all. Toss in some great conversation and spotting some Humpback Whales and it made for a day to remember. Highly recommend Outsider Charters and can’t wait to go back.

Had an amazing day with Chris and Outsider fishing. The boat was perfect with a good sized deck, but also ample inside cabin to get out of the weather when needed. Chris is a ton of fun and knows where to grab some fish. Me and a few buddies went out for the day and had a perfect day, caught a pile of fish, and even learned a few new jokes from our skipper. Good times all around.

Chris was a blast to fish with for the day. He was very knowledgeable and put us on the fish we all had a great time.
