Bryon Withers5.0VerifiedAwesome Experience
Halibut striper combo • 3 adultsMe and two teenagers booked for a halibut charter. We chose a larger boat which seemed like a better choice for us. That was the Amethyst. Captain Jonathan and his deck hands were awesome. Super friendly, non judgmental of us novices, and very helpful in sharing and teaching us what they were doing. They were very focused on our success and helping us catch fish. It was a great boat, a great experience, and one we’ll do again on the Amethyst.

Halibut striper combo • 2 adultsThe fish weren't biting much that day, but the captain and the crew were very vigilant to make sure everyone caught something. It was beyond their control that a lot of the halibut were not of legal size, but they kept plugging away until people caught some that were. Providing advice, fixing the lines, baiting the hooks and fileting the fish, they were great at everything. Also they were/are very friendly and definitely customer focused. I would gladly take another fishing expedition with them.

Halibut striper combo • 3 adults • 2 childrenCaptain Jonathan and his two deck hands were absolutely amazing. I took my boy on this charter for his 13th birthday and they couldn’t have been more accommodating to us. We caught two keepers and so did others on board. Best trip ever, we are still thrilled. Simply bring your own food and drinks and enjoy your trip. They provide everything else. Highly recommend this charter.

Halibut striper combo • 2 adultsAccording to my daughter, "It was the best day ever!" And it sure was a good way to celebrate my 40th birthday by actually doing some real fishing rather than dinky fishing in a pond somewhere. Jonathan and Zack are awesome guys as well and were very helpful. We limited out on stripers, as well.
