Top tier guide 10 years in a row with Steve out of Ucluelet and Victoria. It doesn’t matter the part of the year he will put you on the fish. Always a great time.

Fishing in Ucluelet Another great year with loads of fish! Halibut, Salmon and Rockfish. We even saw whales! If you are looking for a guide that can find the fish, look no further than Steve on the Ocean Rambler! See you next year Steve

Awesome fishing charter Steve is an experienced guide and knows how to find fish. I’ve been very happy to go out three time with Steve so far and hope for many more trips.He is also a good guy and is happy to share his vast knowledge of the waters we fish. Never a dull moment on the Ocean Rambler.If you want to catch fish and have a good time, Steve knows how to get it done.

Salmon limit during a tough time to fish. Looking for a charter the last minute. And we were very lucky to get this one. It was tough fishing, but we got our limit. There were 5 of us on the boat, and there was lots of action for each of us, it was an awesome day.

A Great Afternoon on the Water! This fishing charter was an absolute blast! Steve knew all the best places to go, he was so knowledgeable and helpful to our inexperienced family, and we all had a great time bringing in fish after fish. We highly recommend Steve at Ocean Rambler!

Limited out Ocean Rambler knows where the fish are! Got our limit on Salmon, Halibut, Rockfish, and 8 ling cod. Thanks again Steve! Can’t wait to come to Ucluelet again next year.

Ocean Rambler is top notch I’ve done a few west coast trips. Steve by far is the best captain yet. Great gear, great attitude. A lot of high quality fish were caught and a lot of laughs were had. He went above and beyond with helping the ones with us that had never fished the ocean before. Book with him and you will not be disappointed! 5 stars!

Experiential Learning Captain Steve had just set the first line in the water and before he could set the second one, we had a chinook in the boat!It was a fun day on the water as all 5 of my students (beginners, yet aspiring fishermen) were able to pull fish out of the water on their first day!They all went home happy with a camera pic of them holding their prize. The captain was very organized and clear in his instructions which helped them learn a lot during our trip. The boat was in excellent shape, had high-quality gear, and a navigator who took us directly to the fish in minutes!Thanks for a memorable day on the water where they got some hands-on experience.
