2024! Wow, where has the time gone?? … Well mainly trolling for salmon, anchoring for halibut, and pulling pots for crab and shrimp in the Salish Sea with VIL’s Captains over the years!
This is our 10 year anniversary at Vancouver Island Lodge!!! Thank you to everyone who has supported this business over the years and helped get it started!
Big thanks to Captain’s Steve Arnett and Todd McIntyre running the boats and Chef Amanda and ‘Fuca Chris 🚲’ with the lodge the last few years!
