Keith is your Salmon Seekers guide. His knowledge of local Campbell River tides, salmon behaviour, and seasonal patterns comes from years of hands‑on time on the ocean and a genuine passion for teaching others.
Alongside him is Diane—the purveyor of warm hospitality and the creator of the now‑famous Salmon Seekers seafood dip. Keith and Diane welcome every guest with the kind of coastal charm you only find from people who truly love what they do.
Experience the rhythm of the coast — quiet mornings, wildlife sightings, fresh ocean air, and the excitement that comes with a line suddenly tightening beneath your hands. This is why we keep going back out on the water. Right?

Just got back from a fishing trip with Salmon Seekers in Campbell River, and honestly, it was beyond my expectations. My dad and I booked a full-day trip with Keith and Diane, and it turned out to be one of those experiences you will remember forever.

Amazing fishing experience captain Keith Thomas! Always one of our years highlights. Been fishing with Salmon Seekers many times and we always find great fishing spots and fish when others are not having luck.

Keith and Diane are the nicest people ,good fun to be around , very knowledgeable about fishing and the area and they really put our group on the fish. First class guides without doubt. I highly recommend Salmon Seekers Fishing.

My 6 yr old grandson and I went out fishing with Keith and Diane. We had so much fun and caught two types of salmon. The boat was very spacious, and I did not get sea sick like I normally do (no gas smell from the motor). The views were breathtaking and I definitely plan to go again when back in Cambell River.

I’ve fished with Salmon Seekers two years in a row now, and I can’t wait to come back for a third! Keith does an exceptional job, not just in finding the fish (as the name promises!), but also sharing his deep knowledge of the area.

Had an amazing day with Keith and Diane. The combined fishing/whale watching tour did not disappoint! The variety of sea life we saw combined with the salmon caught made it the perfect day out on the water!
