BLN Fishing Charters
+8If you’re up for a real Alaskan adventure, join BLN Charters and let them take you on a trip of a lifetime! The captain and the crew will take you out to the world-class fishing spots around Kachemak Bay and Cook Inlet, where you’ll get to battle some of Alaska’s most prized fish species.
You’ll head out on one of their two 37’ Tollycraft offshore sportfishing boats, that can take up to 6 anglers each per trip. They’re powered by twin 380 HP John Deer and 430 HP Cummins engines, so you’ll get to the fishing grounds in the blink of an eye! There’s heating, a standard flushing toilet, and comfortable seating on board so you ride out in style.
This part of the world boasts some incredible nature, and diverse wildlife. On your trip, you’ll be able to see whales, seals, otters, sea lions, and birds along the way. There’s a variety of fish species inhabiting these waters, so expect to come across Halibut, Rockfish, Lingcod, and Salmon.
All of the equipment you’ll need for a productive trip will be waiting for you on board. You’ll get rods, reel, and terminal tackle, as well as a range of artificial lures. The crew will be more than happy to clean and fillet your catch for you, so you’ll get a lovely meal out of your trip once you return to shore.
Everything that’s left to do is buy a fishing license (this is NOT included in the trip price), and pack some clothes, food, and drinks, and you’re ready! Kids are welcome on the boat, so if you want to make some nice memories with your children, don’t hesitate to bring them.
Find a trip you like, and book BLN Charters for your next fishing excursion!

Full Day Halibut – Summer on August 5, 2024
My wife Peggy and I just had a wonderful experience with Captain Ben and Dakota. These local guys knew where the fish were and were able to see that all four fishing on board got their fish in short order. We had weather coming in with wind, rain and strong tidal currents. These guys placed our safety foremost. Our second day of fishing with BLN was cancelled due to bad weather. Again, we trusted that they placed our safety first. Would definitely go back to these guys again.

Full Day Halibut – Summer on August 3, 2024
One thing you can’t predict is catching fish … and we did limit out, we did go after some big fish with no luck but that’s fishing…. But I had a blast with Captain Ben and his deck hand Dakota …, took us to see the sea lions and we followed some Orcas what a great trip
