Book your next trip with Fish The 49th Alaskan Fishing Charters and find out what keeps anglers coming back to Homer for more. With Captain Stephen at the helm, you'll have a knowledgeable and experienced guide.
Halibut, Lingcod, Cod, Chinook (King) Salmon, Sockeye Salmon, Rockfish, and more can be found in these waters, depending on the time of year.
On these trips, it's common to bottom fish.
Children are welcome, so go ahead and bring the whole family along! Be sure to ask if child-sized life vests are available, otherwise you should bring your own. Don't forget to bring snacks to ward off any mid-trip fatigue!
You'll be fishing aboard a 30' Sportfishing Boat with room for 6 passengers. It comes with everything you need for a productive day on the water. There's a toilet on board for your convenience.
You'll find rods, reels, and tackle waiting for you.
There will be a First Mate on board to help your trip run smoothly. Mates work hard to make your trip count, so a 10–20% tip is customary.
Before coming aboard, you may need to buy a local fishing license for everyone in your group. Additionally, a federal Halibut Permit is required, and that must be purchased onboard directly from your captain prior to departure. The cost for this permit is $20.00 per person, per day. This information is usually available online, or you can ask the captain. Some species, like King Salmon, might be protected or require a tag to keep them, so make sure you know what to expect.
Some essentials to bring are a hat, sunglasses, bottled water, and sunscreen (non-spray). If you'd like to bring other drinks, just ask. Alcohol is allowed in moderation, but hard liquor is prohibited by law on board as well as glass bottles.

We had an outstanding experience fishing out of Homer with Captain Steve aboard the Sea-Gar. From the moment we stepped on the boat, it was clear that Steve is an experienced and knowledgeable captain who takes both fishing and safety seriously. His hands-on approach made the trip enjoyable and productive. He was constantly helping, sharing tips, and making sure everyone was comfortable and having a great time. Most importantly, his focus on safety gave us confidence throughout the day on the water. The Sea Gar is a fantastic new vessel. It's very clean, comfortable, and well-equipped for a successful fishing trip. Thanks to Capt Steve's expertise, we caught tons of fish and had an unforgettable day on the water. He was extremely engaging, and my children couldn't have asked for a better day on the water. If you're looking for a professional, hardworking captain who knows where the fish are and puts his customers first, I highly recommend Captain Steve and the Sea Gar. We'll definitely be booking another trip the next time we're in Homer! So we can get back to "Charli's Spot"
George, it was an absolute pleasure to welcome your family aboard. Charli surely had the Magic 8 ball working to perfection as she picked our most productive drifts of the day. I look forward to fishing with your entire family again soon in the 49th!
Capt Steve has us on fish all day long. We drifted all day, and even with the moderate tides he was able to keep us on the bottom and on fish while on the drift. Steve has a wealth of fishing knowledge and happily provides tips and stories throughout the day for both entertainment and education. I have lived in Homer for 10+ years taking trips with many charter boats and look forward to fishing with him again! Beautiful and clean boat, nice high rails to lean your hips into instead of banging up your knees while fighting fish. Highly recommended for first timers to Alaska. You aren’t just buying a seat on the boat. You are getting the Alaska experience your friends back home can only dream about!
Thank you for such a detailed and thoughtful review. we look forward to fishing together again soon!
This was not our first fishing charter, but Fish The 49th is by far our favorite one to date, and it is going to be incredibly hard to beat. We did a full-day shared charter out of Homer targeting halibut and cod, and Captain Steve and Ben absolutely crushed it. From the second we stepped on the boat, everything felt dialed in. The boat was spotless, the equipment was top of the line, and the whole operation ran smooth without ever feeling rushed or robotic. What stood out the most was how professional and squared away the crew was. They explained safety, answered every question, and kept the workflow moving all day. We always had bait on the line and lines in the water. They stayed ahead of everything before it ever became a problem, and you could tell they were working hard to maximize the experience for everyone on board. That kind of stuff matters, especially when you are spending a full day on the water with people you have never met before. The fishing was unreal. We absolutely slaughtered halibut and cod, which is exactly what we came for. Add in the Alaska views, great weather, and even seeing a whale, and the day was already hard to top. But honestly, the best part was the people. Captain Steve and Ben are just those kinds of guys you meet for the first time and somehow feel like you have known for years. My girlfriend and I felt incredibly welcome, had an absolute blast, and the whole trip had that rare kind of energy where everyone on the boat was just having a genuinely great day. They also had fish cleaned on the way back in, and we were honestly shocked by how much was already handled before we even got back to the harbor. We took some fish with us to cook later that night and had the rest processed for another day. It was smooth, easy, and let us keep moving with the rest of our day. Fish The 49th absolutely rounded out a perfect Alaska day. Not only did we catch a pile of fish, but we made new friends and built memories that are going to bring a smile to our faces for a long time. I cannot overstate how great this trip was. We will absolutely be booking again.
Thank you an amazing review, and the detailed information about how Fish the 49th strives to be one of the best Charters in Homer, Alaska. Can not wait to fish together again soon!
Captain Steve and deckhand Ben were fantastic! Captain Steve is extremely knowledgeable and offers an overall wonderful experience! They got and kept us on fish the whole 8 hour trip (minus the drive times). The boat is immaculate and very safe and accommodating! They were a huge help, keeping up with our chaos and never ending baiting of the hooks! The stories and charisma of Captain Steve is a bonus on the trip! Beautiful views as well! Would highly recommend!
It was an absolute pleasure to have you and yoyr family aboard. Ben and I appreciate the kind words and look forward to fishing with you again in the 49th!
My wife and I would highly recommend this fishing charter to anyone! Captain Steve and Lauren were both fantastic. His boat is brand new and is in perfect shape. The boat has a nice day head, which is great especially for the ladies. Captain Steve has a lot of experience and always made sure everyone was safe at all times. If youre looking to fish in AK, make a trip to Homer and fish with Captain Steve and Lauren.
It was an absolute pleasure to fish together today. Loren and I were honored to help Jen cacth her first fish EVER!! We look forward to fishing together again soon.
