    Excellent Experience

    Seat Fare - Full Day Halibut Combo on June 29, 2026 • 2 adults

    My wife both went out and caught more than our minimum and caught our limit of rockfish and halibut. The crea was so nice, helpful, and knowledgeable. My wife also felt comfortable because the boat had a private bathroom too. Charter does not offer food or drinks, but they do have a fridge and a microwave leaving you have options for what to bring for lunch. Definitely would want to do this again.

    Great boat and crew

    Seat Fare - Full Day Halibut Combo on August 14, 2025 • 3 adults

    Awesome boat and crew, very clean and thorough. These guys are very organized and knowledgeable. Excellent crew members very sharp and professional. We caught fish and we had a blast/a lot of fun. They gave us the choice of either jigging or bait fishing. I did both types but preferred jigging. We caught silver salmon, ling cod, gray cod, halibut, yellow eyes, and black rockfish fish. We also got lucky and saw a pod of orcas. It was truly an amazing experience and the weather was perfect. This boat was like a Cadillac very smooth ride and Captain David was great along with Oliver the mate. I would definitely recommend this boat to anyone it is by far the best experience I’ve had out of Homer.

    Great Safe Crew

    Seat Fare - Full Day Halibut Combo on August 15, 2025 • 2 adults

    We caught our limit of halibut regardless of the weather. The weather turned on us and Captain David made the decision to head back for our safety instead of going for the second target. He did try for the second and a third but it was not good enough. He could have stayed out there and it would have been miserable but didn't. He and Cheyenne both did a wonderful! Felt very safe and would recommend them to anyone! P.s. Capt. David lived up to his name and found the halibut when other boats came back empty!

    Fantastic trip

    Seat Fare - Full Day Halibut Combo on July 15, 2024 • 2 adults

    We went for Halibut and Rock Fish out of Homer. The boat is phenomenal. Very comfortable and the gyro system really does work to make the roll basically non existent. The Captain was very knowledgeable and friendly. Knew exactly where to go to put is on the fish. We started with boat limits of our big halibut, then switched to rock fish with full limits, then wrapped up the day with full limits of our smaller halibut. Saw plenty of whales along the way and the Captain slowed to point them out. Deck hand was awesome and worked the whole time to make sure everyone’s gear was in great shape, gave good pointers, and was right on it to land fish. He filleted our catch with care and was very good answering all of our questions. For those who need fish processing they have the processor literally come to the boat to pick it up for you. Just a phenomenal experience. These guys are top notch.

    Beautiful boat with nice accommodations, experienced crew

    Private-3/4 Day Halibut (up to 13) on May 25, 2024 • 2 adults

    My boyfriend and I went on this excursion and loved the fishing experience! We had two experienced captains and a hard working fisherwoman who got all the bait chopped and ready for the hooks! Crew was excellent at helping us with reeling tips, unhooking and displaying our catch for great pictures! Also had a fish processor meet at the dock who took cut fish from crew. We picked up the next morning and checked box on our flight. We did share boat with 2 couples who brought very young children which was awkward for our experience (loud crying and having to step around). We were surprised that there wasn’t an age minimum.

Alaska and this charter company delivered!
Private - Tue/Wed Full Day Combo on July 8, 2026 • 7 adults • 1 child

Had family visiting from Arkansas and wanted them to have the Halibut experience. With 9 of us on board there was plenty of room, boat was spacious and well set. Captain and crew were personable and amazing to spend the day with. Everyone on board limited out, even my 5 year old. Alaska and this charter delivered! If fishing out of Homer with more than 6 people, this will be my go to anytime

Captain David and Clay are an excellent fishing team. The boat was safe, modern, clean and fast. The crew was excellent. And most importantly they put us on the fish! We had easy limits of good sized halibut and black rockfish and then caught some yellow eye and legal lingcod. We will be back!
