You can choose to take home the fish you catch or release it back into the water.
Captain Kurt will provide you with the fishing rods, reels, tackle, and lures. After the trip, he offers to clean and fillet your catch so it's ready for cooking when you get back home. You should bring your licenses and any snacks and drinks you want before coming on board.

We had a great day with Captain Easy. We caught one coho and released it according to fishing regulations. Then we caught one chinook which we kept. A nice productive day.

We met Captain Kurt at the small craft Harbour and the experience was full of excitement and surprises. Since it's the first time fishing in open water. The first catch slipped away but the Captain encouraged us to keep going. At the end of the trip, we have successfully pulled chin hooks and cohos out of water. Along the way, Kurt has been very educational and patient in helping us getting familiar with blue waters. Will come back again once we have the opportunity!
Kurt was outstanding. He worked hard keeping the lines in the water. Was a busy afternoon and so fun. Had excellent equipment. Was relaxing and Kurt was easy to visit with. Highly recommend as Kurt was knowledgeable too. We felt safe and had an excellent time. We will be back!
