Eagle Nook Resort and Lucky Sport Fishing What a Wonderful Time

5.0 of 5 bubblesReviewed 31 July 2017
I decided to try my first fishing charter and selected Lucky Sport Fishing on a friends recommendation of friendly and knowledgeable staff, and an incredible destination. We were picked up by Amos, who joked with us on the way and regaled us with his fish stories. Upon arrival we were greeted by the staff, shown our accommodation and given a rundown on the weather, opportunities and fishing. On our first day we limited out, on our second day we limited out, and on the third day, we saved the crew from processing and enjoyed a beer cruise. Our Guide, Dan, made our time enjoyable and ensured everything possible was done to catch fish. The Food was incredible and the staff made our every need completed with a smile and good cheer.

I am looking forward to going back within the next two years. The fish preparation and packaging made is so easy to bring home and is was still frozen 12 hours later. I can't say enough good about the guides and staff. I highly recommend the resort and fishing opportunities.
Date of stay: July 2017
Room Tip: Every room has a view of the two bays. You either look at the docks and view, or look at the view.

Thank you very much for the review, so glad we were able to make that first fishing experience a positive one. Glad to hear about the fish, we get asked and we say 10 hours so its great to hear it made it 12.

Amos says hi and will be back for the 2018 season as well most of the team.

We are looking for forward to another fantastic season.

I will be back at the helm guiding as much as I can.

Fish Onnnn,
Dan

    We spent 4 exceptional days! Dan and his team were great, the food was delicious and the area is so beautiful. Our room was comfortable, all activities were amazing. We discovered the islands around and were lucky enough to see whales! We will never forget these moments we spent in the Eagle Nook, the adorable people we met and those unforgettable evenings! Thank you so much for your warm welcome, Sylvia

    This resort was the perfect locale for a wonderful 4 day fishing adventure with friends. The staff were wonderful, hard-working young folks who tended graciously to each and every need. Our room was quite comfortable, and the food was heavenly, although we only got to partake of the chef's delicous dinners due to our fishing schedule. While winds kept us in the sound, we still managed to catch some King Salmon and rockfish. If you're not into fishing, there are water sports, hiking trails, spa and many other quiet activites to keep you occupied.

    Virtually out in the middle of nowhere, located in a great fishing area, sits a lodge with all of the amenities that you can find in a fine hotel. The lodge is well thought out and maintained, a real first class experience. Food is excellent (tenderloin especially) with a well stocked lounge and great wine selection. Fishing guides are knowledgeable with great fishing boats. I would highly recommend the experience

    Room tip: No TV in room...Toilet does not have powerful suction

    Eagle Nook is first class all the way. We brought our own boat and the Lucky Sport fishing staff provided tips on where to go and took great care of our fish. Great place! Food and wine list was
    awesome too.

    Had a wonderful five days in the BC wilderness, fishing, hiking and kayaking. Eagle Nook is a great, remote lodge with the highest level of service and, thanks to chef James, superb 5-star dining. The lodge staff is extremely helpful and personable and help create a family-like atmosphere. Fishing in Barkley Sound is excellent and we had Jeff from Lucky Fishing, which has a fleet of Grady Whites based at the lodge, as our guide. Despite it being near the end of the run, he got us our Chinook plus plenty of ling and black sea bass to bring home. As a bonus, we. also got to see a pod of orcas swim by, and some nervous sea lions. Rooms in the main lodge are comfortable and all have views of the neighboring bays, which are calm and great for easy kayaking. Great easy chairs by the fireplace and someone always making sure your wine glass is full. A truly top notch experience.

    Room tip: All rooms have great views
