Are you the owner of Gulf Rascal Charters?
Gulf Rascal Charters, based in Madeira Park on the Sunshine Coast of British Columbia, offers exciting fishing charters and prawn fishing adventures for the whole family to enjoy. Departing from the Gov't dock in Madeira Park, guests have the opportunity to explore the waters of Pender Harbour and Egmont, which are known for an abundance of salmon, cod, spot prawns, seals, and various wildlife. It is common to spot orcas, sea lions, harbour porpoises, Pacific white-sided dolphins, and even humpback whales during the summer months.
The charters offer year-round sport fishing for spring or chinook salmon at various local hot spots, making it perfect for a small group or a few individuals. For larger groups and families, the excitement of catching ling cod, flounders, and rockfish provides lots of action for both children and adults alike. The Gulf Rascal also uses Seaqualizer descending devices to safely release unintentional rockfish catches, promoting sustainable fishing practices.
Spot prawn fishing is a specialty with Gulf Rascal Charters, allowing guests to experience the process used by commercial fishers firsthand. Guests have the opportunity to pull prawn traps themselves, combining the prawning experience with some traditional fishing. The hands-on experience is something all guests can enjoy, especially when they get to take home their catch, including the delicious wild spot prawns perfect for sashimi or cooking.
In addition to fishing adventures, Gulf Rascal Charters also offers scenic, wildlife, and eco-tours, introducing guests to the native flora and fauna of the Sunshine Coast. Perfect for bird-watching enthusiasts, guests can spot a variety of bird species found along the west coast of British Columbia. Cruises through Malaspina Strait, Jervis Inlet, Agammemnon Channel, Sechelt Inlet, and other scenic areas provide stunning views of local wildlife and various birds.
