  • "Dan and Zane did a fantastic job of creating a Fishing Experience for the newby and the veteran. Both Zane and Dan made everyone feel welcomed and comfortable and their knowledge of the area is extensive. On both days we reached our salmon limits in both boats. I would recommend Hookem Danno to anyone wanting to experience West Coast Salmon Fishing!!"

    Kevin P.

  • "Dan is the best in the biz! My family and I have toured with him three times now and I’m sure we’ll be back. Great guy with GREAT catches!"

    Randi W.

  • "I do damn few reviews because I believe they are often hyped to the positive, but there is no hype here! I have fished with Dan twice now along with 3 relatives and the experience both times has been exceptional for the fishing (the catch) and the fond memories the 4 of us will have forever. Dan is professional at what he does and a day with him on his boat is a true and unexpected joy."

    Rick

  • "Zane was an awesome guide. He worked hard to make sure we brought fish home. He was patient with the rookie fishermen who got to hook the big salmon for his birthday. He also went the extra mile to stop and pull up a crab trap which made for an amazing halibut and crab feast the next day. Along with cleaning and prepping our fish and calling the packaging company to package our fish for the drive home. All in all we would for sure book with Hook ‘Em Danno again."

    Angela B.

  • "Another awesome trip to Swiftsure on July 30, 2023 with Zane! This was our 3rd annual father son trip. Lots of Chinooks, halibut and Black Cod. The boys had a blast!"

    Greg C.

    Art B.

  • "Great experience for the family. From start to end Dan was very helpful and communicative. He helped us find accommodation in port renfrew, and made recommendations of places to eat and things to do beforehand. On the boat, Dan took care of everything. He demonstrated great fishing knowledge and skill, was very helpful to people who had never been fishing in our group before, and had a positive attitude throughout the day. At the end, he filleted the fish for easy transport. Would recommend anyone to do this experience for a different kind of family friendly adventure."

He is prepared to fish for whatever we wanted. He should be called Catchem’ Danno for how amazing this trip was! We will be coming back again!"
