Welcome to Crabby's Fishing Charters! We are conveniently located between the Comox Valley and Campbell River, offering exceptional fishing experiences in both locations. Captain Chris Steinbach will guide you through the incredible spring and summer seasons, showcasing the abundant fishing opportunities in British Columbia.

Our 28' Osprey boat is equipped with twin 200 HP Evinrude engines, guaranteeing a top cruising speed of 32 knots. With a spacious deck that is twice the size of other local boats, there is plenty of room for up to four anglers to enjoy comfortable fishing. The boat also features a fully private head and an enclosed cabin equipped with essential safety gear and navigation electronics for a productive outing.

The prime fishing season runs from April to September, during which you have excellent chances of catching a variety of fish, including mouth-watering Chinook Salmon that can weigh over 30 lbs. Other species available for angling include Rockfish, Halibut, Prawns, and Crabs.

Captain Chris will expertly assist you with techniques suitable for each fishing method, whether it's trolling for Salmon or bottom fishing for Rockfish and Halibut. Alongside the thrill of catching fish, you'll be surrounded by breathtaking mountain vistas, cascading waterfalls, and the occasional sighting of whales, dolphins, or bears.
