Capt Lyle and his wife Stephanie were fantastic!! Super nice people and went above and beyond to help us catch Halibut. Seas were a bit rough but it didn’t stop Capt Lyle!! We were one fish shy of limiting out and if the seas weren’t so rough I’m sure Capt Lyle would have stayed out to get that last fish. If your are looking for a guided trip out of Newport with just your family or friends, Capt Lyle and Stephanie are super great people to be with out on the water. They will also process... Meer

Captain Lyle was great! Called to make sure we were all ready and answer any questions we had the night before and was ready for us with everything we needed for the morning of fishing! We all limited out and even in rough seas had a wonderful trip! He is highly experienced with a calm demeanor that makes everyone feel comfortable and confident on the boat.

This was our first time to do anything like this.  lila was a great communicator from the start including answering questions before we even officially booked. He was ready for us at the docks. We went out and had our limit by 8:30 AM. When we got back in,  he cleaned the kitchen and had it ready for us shortly after. Would absolutely recommend Lyle to anyone, especially if this is your first time.

Captain Lyle was responsive during booking and was present and helpful as the trip approached. Highly recommend him and the Prospecter if you are fishing out of the Central Oregon coast. He knew where to find the fish! We limited out on our target halibut with some help from the crew. Would definitely book again!

I took my 2 boys rock fishing and we had a great experience with Captain Lyle. The Prospect is a really nice boat and the Captain maintained it very well. We all caught so many fish that we limited out in an hour and a half. I highly recommend anyone wanting to fish to use his service
