July fishing trip
8 Hour Trip – Halibut/Salmon/Cod Pr on July 30, 2026 • 4 adults

This was the first time trip for all 4 of us. It was better than we ever expected. Our captain and deck mate were an “exceptional pair” that guided us through the fishing, but added so much more by their conversation and personal approach with all of us. We caught a full limit of halibut and some cod The entire learning process of fishing for halibut, the fish cleaning and processing was amazingly efficient. We would definitely recommend these two to anyone wanting an enjoyable day fishing! Thanks Will and Colton!

8 Hour Trip – Halibut Private on July 24, 2026 • 2 adults • 2 children

The waves were rough out there but they were very patient with the boys (11 years old) and explained everything to them. They have such awesome team work and everyone had fun. We maxed out on Halibut and even caught some cod too!! We highly recommend them!!

Perfect day!
8 Hour Trip – Halibut June Shared on July 25, 2026 • 3 adults

Captain Will and Evan got us on great fish early and often. Limited on halibut (one close to 70 pounds) early so we moved on to Pacific cod and cranked until our arms gave out. Highly recommend!!!

After 11 years in the Coast Guard and starting a charter business in Kodiak, Ak, I was ready to make my dream become a reality. I left the Coast Guard and started a full time charter business and B&B. I've had a passion for fishing for as long as I can remember. I truly enjoy sharing what I love to do with my clients and providing them with the best Alaskan Adventure.

    Best charter I have ever been on. Great captain and deckhand. Always kept us on the fish. Captain made a great call before going out. Was supposed to be a halibut and salmon charter but the salmon were no where to be found days before. He asked if we wanted rockfish instead and it was the best decision to go with rockfish. Radio chatter confirmed no salmon to be found. Limited out on halibut and rockfish. Thanks Captain Will and Carly!
