Canada’s Premier Student Outdoor, Hunting & Fishing Community

The UVic Fish and Game Club (University of Victoria Fish and Game Club) is a dynamic, student-led community and the only Varsity club of its kind in Canada. Dedicated to connecting university students with fishing, hunting, trapping, conservation, and outdoor skills, this Victoria-based organization provides hands-on opportunities to learn, participate, and build lifelong outdoor experience across Vancouver Island.

From complete beginners taking their first cast to experienced outdoorspeople, the club creates an accessible, supportive environment centered around responsible stewardship, practical field education, and strong community building.

Why Join the UVic Fish & Game Club?

The club serves as an essential bridge between post-secondary students and British Columbia’s rich outdoor heritage, offering active field initiatives throughout the academic year:

  • Hands-On Field Trips: Participate in organized saltwater and freshwater fishing trips, shooting events, hunting education outings, and seasonal foraging excursions across Southern Vancouver Island.
  • Active Salmon Enhancement: Work directly alongside local conservation partners, such as the Goldstream Salmonid Enhancement Association, helping clip thousands of juvenile Coho salmon and restore local stream habitats.
  • Outdoor Education & Licensing: Gain practical outdoor certifications, licensing courses, and hands-on skills training guided by industry leaders, conservation groups, and experienced mentors.
  • Inclusive Student Community: Connect with hundreds of like-minded outdoorspeople in Victoria to share gear tips, coordinate trips, and build lasting friendships centered around responsible stewardship.
