'Let’s Go Fishing' “The worst day fishing is better than the best day working” Mongoose Striker Fishing Charters offers skippered charter salmon fishing aboard the ‘Mongoose Striker‘, a 29ft Tiara that is the “ultimate fishing platform”. It is considered by many to be Vancouver’s nicest and best equipped charter boat and has a great reputation for ‘catching salmon’. This vessel is big enough to offer stability and comfort yet small enough to fish tight areas where the big ones sometimes like to hide. There is no other sport fishing charter boat that can compare to this one. It has all the amenities including a fully enclosed heated and comfortable sitting area, which allows easy access to the rods and back deck to reel in the ‘Big one’. A fully enclosed stand-up washroom adds to the ‘creature’ comforts that we all appreciate. Coupled with this fully insured and Coast Guard/Transport Canada inspected vessel is the finest in fishing gear and equipment. Computerized Cannon Electric down-riggers, custom light-action rods, tackle and state of the art electronics add to your comfort, enjoyment and incredible catch percentage on the ‘Mongoose Striker’ while salmon fishing and taking in the breathtaking scenery in the Vancouver Howe Sound and Georgia Strait area.

Capt. Scott Sutherland

Operator since 1978
'The size of the fish isn't as important as the size of the smile' It is a pleasure to see the excitement on someone's face as they hook into and play a salmon. We say that 'the tug is the drug' and that is so true. Being out on the water and seeing things that most people can only see in photos is the reward. Capt. Scott Sutherland has been fishing the waters of British Columbia for the past 47 years. He has been guiding for the past 43 years where he has put anglers from all over the world on salmon from the Alaska border to the south end of Vancouver Island. He has been fishing the waters around the Vancouver area all his life and started guiding here in 1978. Scott is one of the most qualified Guides on the coast and retains a 60 tonne Limited Captain Ticket along with current Marine First-aid certificates and Maritime Commercial Radio operator Certificate. He has a very extensive knowledge of the waters of the Vancouver/Georgia strait area. This coupled with his extensive knowledge of boats, water conditions and fishing adds to the safety and enjoyment of your Salmon Fishing experience. Capt. Scott Sutherland has worked for the past 15 years as a Pro-staff member for Johnson Outdoors, which manufactures some of the highest quality and best know fishing equipment in the world. The latest and greatest computerized Cannon downriggers and Humminbirds top of the line sounders offer the latest in fishing technology and design. This cutting edge and industry leading technology allows the fish to ‘run but not hide’, which only adds to your West Coast Salmon Fishing experience and catch percentage. Scott prides himself on offering one of the most respected guiding services in the BC waters. He has a reputation of a hard working attitude that consistently produces great results on the water. Being honest is something he take very seriously, fishing reports aren’t exaggerated to help bookings. And if your chances of catching fish are slim, he’ll recommend other options.
