ABOUT US

NOTHING BEATS EXPERIENCE

In 2006 we had an idea. Bring all the best BC fishing guides that we know together to start offering trips around British Columbia. By the mid 2000’s we had an incredible network of BC fishing guides, both freshwater and saltwater guides, and we’ve built on that over the past 20 years. The crew we have guiding at Chromer Sport Fishing is the best in the industry. Hard working, kind and conservation minded, our fishing guides are on the water 12 months of the year. Our focus is on customer service, ensuring people have the best possible fishing trip to BC! We understand that making a decision on when and where to go can be difficult. That’s why we’ve compiled a super strong pre-game, to give you the info you need and answers to all your questions. Fishing is part of what we do, but the front end service is a huge part of why people trust us with their fishing trips!
