Q: How much time is spent on the water fishing if doing the Charters?

A: Generally it is an 8 hour day on the water, with the boats leaving the dock at 7:00 am and returning by 4:00 pm.  If the fishing is a little slow the guides have been known to stay out longer if the guests desire, but after 8 hours most are ready to head back for a bit of relaxation and dinner.

Q: Can we stay longer and see some of the many attractions Haida Gwaii?

A: Yes, the package can be extended to include 3 days of fishing and up to 7 days of accommodation instead of the standard 4 days.
