Captain Josh is a lifelong angler with over 20 years of experience fishing the waters of British Columbia’s west coast. Growing up fishing the Vedder River, he developed a year-round passion for the sport early on, spending as much time as possible on the water.
Over the years, he’s fished extensively across the coast—from Sooke to Haida Gwaii—as well as numerous river systems throughout the region. His experience spans a wide range of species and techniques, giving him a deep understanding of how to adapt to changing conditions and consistently find fish.
