Brian started fishing as a very young child and the fascination has never stopped to this day.
With such a love and passion for the outdoors and meeting people it’s only fitting that he started Silversides Fishing Adventures back in 1996.
Meeting people from all over the globe and showing them our beautiful scenery and fishing is what he loves the most.
What we catch and provide:
WHITE STURGEON ♦ SALMON ♦ STEELHEAD ♦ TROUT
1/2 DAY OR FULL DAY CHARTERS ♦ MULTI DAY WITH LODGING ♦ CORPORATE, TEAM BUILDING & STAGS
◊ SUITABLE FOR FAMILIES, EXPERTS OR BEGINNERS ◊
Kind words from our awesome guests

Never mind Grouse mountain or Capilano suspension bridge.
This is the the Most fun adventure you will do while visiting Vancouver.
Both Louise and our Fishing Guide Brian were amazing.
Caught 2 monster Sturgeons, pushing 250 plus pounds each.
Even my 11yr old son Was able to catch some much smaller fish. He can’t stop talking about it.
Brian Thank you !!!!
As the Mastercard commercial goes …….PRICELESS!!!!

On April 2nd, 2018 our group of 3 went White Sturgeon fishing with Silversides Fishing Adventures. In two hours we had 6 sturgeon. Our total for the day was 10. Our guide Brian was excellent and very knowledgeable. He put us on the fish. The boat and gear was excellent. We would highly recommend Silversides Fishing Adventures!

Booked Brian and another boat for 3 days fishing late October.
He found the salmon and was constantly changing /tying lures and flies to ensure the fishing was constant.
Best 3 days fishing for a very good price we had whilst spending 10 days in the area.
By far the best value for money company (we used 3 different companies whilst in Canada ).

Simply amazing only begins to describe a fishing trip of a life time. First class pick up and drop off to and from the airport and the hotel. Then theirs the fishing. Oh my god its out of this world. Dave and myself said before the trip just catching a sturgeon would be great but to catch a hundred pounder each would be awesome. At the end of day one we had both smashed it with fish to 280lb! In 6 days we had 16 fish with only 3 under a 100 lb, 6 over 200 lb and the biggest an amazing 375 lb! The guides Brian and Mike were some of the best guides I’ve ever come across. A huge thank you to Brian Mike and Louise. You run a first class outfit.

I am so happy with Brian’s service that we are returning in December to hunt Bull Trout and fish for Winter Steelhead with him on the fly. All I can say is: “5 Star Guide Service all around”. If you want to catch big chrome fish – Silversides Fishing is the place to call. Many thanks Brian! See you in December.

We can always count on Silversides Fishing Adventures to get us into big fish. Brian’s methodical approach and attention to detail sets him apart from other guides. If you want to fish with a rock star who is as obsessed with big fish as you are, then Silversides Fishing Adventures is your only choice. My fishing partners and I come back year after year for a reason: Brian hooks us up!
