Ocean Hunter Charters
+104Ocean Hunter Charters welcomes you to the stunning waters of Homer.
These waters are known for Halibut, Chinook Salmon, Coho Salmon, Pink Salmon, Sockeye Salmon, Black Seabass, Cod, Lingcod, and more – with any luck, you’ll have tight lines in no time. On the day of your trip, you’re likely to troll and bottom fish using heavy tackle.
Thinking of bringing the whole family? Kids are absolutely welcome! Be sure to ask if child-sized life vests are available, otherwise you should bring your own. Snacks are never a bad idea to maintain your energy throughout the trip!
You’ll be fishing aboard a 28’ Koffler aluminum fishing boat that can carry up to 6 passengers. It has downriggers and all the essentials no fishing machine can run without. There’s a toilet on board for your convenience. What’s more, this vessel is wheelchair accessible. Capt. Keith will provide rods and reels for you, as well as lures.
You will need to get a local fishing license before the trip. This information is usually available online, or you can ask the captain. Some species might be protected or require a tag to keep them, so make sure you know what to expect. It’s always wise to bring bottled water, sunscreen (non-spray), and sunglasses. Alcohol is allowed in moderation, just avoid hard liquor as well as glass bottles.

Great Captain
8 Hour Trip – Halibut/Salmon on July 15, 2024
Captain Keith does an excellent job of communicating with other Captains to get you on the fish. This saves a lot of drive time searching if the fish have been on the move. He also has a great sense of humor which really makes for a great day on the water.

We had a great family fishing and sightseeing day. We caught some fish, saw tons of sea life, and toured much of the area around Homer. We even saw some whales! Thanks again to Captain Keith for a great day!

Fantastic Trip with Ocean Hunter
8 Hour Trip – Halibut/Black Rock on July 2, 2024
We highly recommend Keith and his company Ocean Hunter. He’s patient, instructive, readily shared his knowledge and experiences with us. We caught halibut, cod, king salmon, pillow and Irish Lords. It was a wonderful day on the water and we’d gladly return with Ocean Hunter.
