Sooke Salmon Charters is a long established and successful charter fishing company located on Southern Vancouver Island. We began operations back in 1986 and have become one of the most recognized, respected and recommended fishing charter companies in the area.

Rollie Rose, the owner and principle fishing guide, was born and raised in Victoria. He and his family boast four generations of local fishing experience. Rollie has over 37 years of personal local fishing experience dating back to around 1965 when he first started fishing in Sooke with his grandfather. His experience, knowledge, passion for fishing, motivated hard-working personality and healthy touch of competitiveness all help ensure a successful charter trip.

Sooke Salmon Charters is a mobile operation, following the fish so that the best results are always possible. We are not stuck in one location when the fish move elsewhere.
