ABOUT THE CAPTAIN
My name is Raiden Bresch! I have been a licensed sport fishing guide for 18 years, but have been fishing the coast of BC for more than 28 years. I live in the Comox Valley with my wife and family and have been settled here for almost 12 years.
My love of fishing started young, thanks to my father and older brothers, who are also fishing guides. Born and raised on the ocean, I grew up in the Stuart Island area, north of Campbell River and have worked for many elite fishing lodges in my lifetime, including:
More recently, I have started a charter here in the Comox Valley, as the fishing on this part of the Island is not only busy, but the beauty of the landscape is unparalleled. Here, I’m able to take guests out locally in Comox, up to Campbell River, over to Hornby Island, and even up into the Stuart Island Area. I’m always up for an adventure and I’m open to teaching and demonstrating in a way that works best for you.
My qualifications and certificates include:
My goal is always to provide my guests with a very exciting, safe, and productive fishing experience.
Looking forward to meeting you!
