Fishing with family
1/2 day Salmon (AM) on August 11, 20253 adults1 child

This was our first time on a charter fishing trip. 3 adults one in a wheelchair and a 8 year old. It was the best experience we had fishing, from where we met the captain to the boat to setting crab traps to fishing on the ocean which is totally different from lake fishing. When we were all done fishing, the next week we talked about doing this with extended family the next year. We all agreed that it was absolutely the best vacation someone can take. Thanks to our captain Regg. for a wonderful experience.

1/2 day Salmon (AM) on August 14, 20254 adults2 children

Had the prairie kids out on their first ever salmon fishing trip. Limited bar 1 on pinks, coho and legal chinook plus a few released, and a couple of crab too. The boat was just right for a party of 6, spacious and comfortable. The skipper Reg clearly knew his stuff and was just awesome with the kids. Definitely recommended.

Had fun with Captain Regg
Full Day Trip (Halibut) on August 2, 20255 adults

We booked a halibut trip. Though we did not catch any halibut due to the off season, we caught 6 black cods. Captain Regg is a very approachable person. He is full of energy and had tried his best to give us a memorable trip. My group was particularly impressed by his fish cutting skills. He customized his cuts to our cooking needs and made life easy. He even went an extra mile to offer us a pack of his halibut inventory so that we could still get to taste what we missed. Will book him again in our next opportunity. Thank you Captain Regg.
