Lang Nguyen

Owner and Adventure Guide

Lang became fascinated with sturgeon fishing and salmon fishing at the age of 6, while growing up spending more days fishing than not. In 2007, Lang’s passion became a career with the formation of Lang’s Fishing Adventures.

When Lang isn’t guiding he spends his time finding uncharted hot spots and developing new fishing techniques to share with his clients, he enjoys sharing his passion for fishing with his family. You can also find him tying of the laces on the skates during the hockey season.

Darren Mulrooney

Adventure Guide

Darren has been fishing for as long as he can remember. “When I was a kid, I’d bike anywhere I could to catch fish,” as he puts it. Darren’s uncle was an fisherman on the Fraser and often took him and his brother out.

He has been avidly fishing the Fraser river and other waters for over 20 years now. Guiding has become a true passion and just having the availability to be part of people’s fishing experiences is what he lives for. He gets excited with every fish landed, big or small. Taking new fishermen or kids out for pinks is also one of his favorite days on the water.

Darren’s best fishing trip is the first time his son caught a bigger trout than him…5 years ago and he still hears about it. Darren also enjoys anything outdoors and spending that time with his family. His is an avid hunter by both rifle and bow. He competes locally as well as on a provincial and national level.
