Amazing trip
Trophy Salmon Catch&Release on July 16, 2025
Tory was our captain! We had an amazing fishing trip! Our captain was fantastic—friendly, down-to-earth, and clearly very experienced. He made the trip truly memorable! Not only we caught plenty of salmon and crabs, and he gave clear advice on what we could keep or should release, but also we witnessed feeding a bald eagle, passing by a pod of orcas. Highly recommend this experience!

A great afternoon on the water
Half Day Trip (PM) on September 1, 2024
We really enjoyed our afternoon of fishing with our knowledgeable and personable Captain Tory. We appreciated the way he included us in the different parts of the fishing experience, always willing to explain the details along the way. We put a few fish and crab in the boat as a result of his passion and persistence. We would highly recommend him as a Captain and guide.
