Great place to make sure you have plenty of time for getting the salmon prepared and have lunch there as it is a good experience. Make sure you buy some bait though as the salmon are smart. Staff were not very well trained so ask a lot of questions. Salmon was a bit fatty but tasted okay.

Great place for kids, we all caught one.
Please do check your bag if you are taking your salmon home. We cooked 2 there, brought what we thought were 3 salmon filleted fish but when we went to cook we were only given the skeleton of the fish, so nothing to cook!

Great idea. Friendly staff! Fair price for the preparation, fish and renting equipment.

Fun fishing activity with a pay-what-you-catch model. Would have liked a little better instruction for us first-timers. The meal from our catch was still one of the most rewarding.

Took a while to get a bite on the line, we were just about to leave without catching anything, then finally managed to catch a salmon at the last minute. It was good to show the kids where Salmon steaks come from, there was some talk about becoming vegetarian until the cooked salmon came out. Also got our fair share of sand fly bites around the legs, so make sure you take sandfly repellent! Salmon cooked up nicely for us, overall we had a good experience.

Overall a great experience, and good value for money. Catching and actually killing a salmon is a good experience if you have not done it before. Can't recommend the sashimi since they do not know how to cut it.

Good experience to catch a fish but a bit pricey for having to do it all yourself. Nice cafe and cooked alright but again a little pricey for what you get.

Great fun and the cooking salmon smells nice. We didn't catch one though.
