Sasha

Owner & Captain

When I was 8 years old I started heading out on short fishing trips with my dad to Johnstone Strait. I’ll never forget the thrill of shining the spotlight on the net after dark, counting the fish we caught—it felt like the best summer job in the world. By 19, I had worked hard enough to buy my first boat, the Summer Wages, and was eager to set off to explore and fish the breathtaking coast of British Columbia.

Today, my wife, kids, and I are proud to bring premium, sustainable seafood to our customers. Our boats, the Sleepless Nights and the Sun Dog, help us harvest wild salmon, spot prawns, king shrimp, albacore tuna, and more. My son has even started joining me on the boat, creating memories just like the ones I made with my dad. For our family, fishing isn’t just a job—it’s a way of life, and we’re grateful to share it with you at Vancouver’s local farmers markets.

Ethan

Deckhand

Ever since I was a little boy I had always wanted to go fishing with my Dad and Grandpa. I was allowed to help out at the Farmers Markets, but I had to wait to go fishing until I was 10 years old. Finally, I got the yes from my mother and I was more excited than I had ever been. It was a lot of hard work and long hours, so I didn’t get much in the way of good sleep. I had to learn fast, listen well and do what I was told. Every summer since then, I have been out fishing. The mosquitoes are a nuisance but the thrill of watching the fish come aboard is still as exciting as it was when I was 10. Dad says I get paid a little better than what he did on Grandpa’s boat… so I guess that makes me a better deckhand than he was.
