    Wonderful trip!

    8 Hour Trip – Halibut • 4 adults • 1 child

    Keith was great, when others stayed in closer, he took us out quite a ways and put us on some bigger Halibut right away. We caught our limit of any size and then went in a little ways for the ones 27" or less. We caught our limit of those pretty quick as well. While others were still out searching for their first fish we had our daily limit for all 4 of us. Weather was perfect and we couldn't ask for a better a day or experience. Thank You Keith!

    Great Captain, big fish

    8 Hour Trip – Halibut/Salmon • 4 adults

    Captain Keith was great and he definitely knows what he's doing. He's very knowledgeable and even though he shared it was an unfavorable season for fishing, he still put us on some great spots and we walked away with 9 halibut and 4 cod. The boat was clean and the trip out was gorgeous. We appreciated how straightforward he was and everything he did to ensure we got a great catch.

    Good Halibut fishing

    8 Hour Trip – Halibut • 4 adults

    We booked the same boat 2 days in a row 1st day full day halibut 2nd day was supposed to be salmon and halibut. On the 2nd day the majority of the day was spent on halibut and we were only given an hour and a half of trolling for salmon which is why we booked that day extra. The cost of Friday's boat was more than Thursday's boat because we were doing the salmon fishing which we really did not get to do. Capt. Keith is definitely a very nice guy he worked his butt off to get our halibut for us we were just disappointed in not really getting our salmon fishing.

    Response from Captain

    some days you just run out of time. if the weather was better in the am that would hsve been the case and some onr lost one. hope we do better next time. i think as far as I know we were one of the only boats to land a king that day. best regards Captain Keith

    8 Hour Trip – Halibut/Black Rock • 2 adults

    Fish weren’t biting that morning, you could hear several captains on the radio trying to find where theywere biting. Captain Keith kept working on different spyand we finally landed some fish. he stay out there til we got our limits which i know he didn’t have to but we all really appreciated the extra effort he put in for us to catch our dish

    Captain Keith knows fish!

    8 Hour Trip – Halibut • 5 adults

    Captain Keith has been doing this for decades. He knows all the other boats and communicates with them regularly throughout the trip to find the best fishing spots that day. Even though the weather was rough we were able to limit on Kings and landed our share of big halibut. Can’t recommend this charter enough!
