Clayoquot Ventures' Staff Profiles


Jeff Hale

Jeff has lived in Tofino since 1996 and has spent most of his time caught up in hotel management. On his days off from the hotel Jeff could usually be spotted out on the waters at one of the many local hot spots and he has also guided occasionally for Clayoquot Ventures over the last two years. Born and raised in Duncan, BC, Jeff spent many summers fishing the entire West Coast of Vancouver Island. He has over 15 years experience fishing various sizes of boats in many different areas, including three seasons as a fulltime guide at River’s Inlet. Although Jeff prefers fishing for Tyee Chinook, he has fished successfully for many of the other game fish in the waters of Clayoquot Sound and outlying areas. Jeff’s hobbies include fishing, hunting, camping, wakeboarding, snowboarding, surfing and spending time with his family.
