    Fish were biting!

    5 Hour Trip - 5:00am • 4 adults

    After a short instruction by the very knowledgeable and courteous captain we missed a few fish, then we started to catch them, King Salmon and a Coho Salmon. we easily ended up with about 100lbs of fish. Captain had a great friendly personality. Patient with novice fisherman. What definitely book with Crabby Charters again.

    Reported catch:
    Coho Salmon
    Chinook Salmon

    Great experience from start to finish

    5 Hour 11:00 • 4 adults

    Capt. Craig provided a memorable experience. He was friendly, engaging and knowledgable. He obviously is a seasoned veteran fishing these waters. We caught plenty of fish but the experience would have been great regardless. Highly recommend him and would certainly charter with him again.

    Awesome trip!

    6 Hour Trip - 6:00am • 2 adults

    Perfect day. Captain Craig is the best. The only negative is how sore our forearms are from reeling in some mny big Steelhead and King Salmon! Definitey will run the trip back in the future.

    Reported catch:
    Rainbow Trout (Steelhead)
    Chinook Salmon
