    Fantastic Day

    10 Hour Trip Pre Season Special • 6 adults

    What an amazing deep sea fishing trip! The captain and crew were outstanding—friendly, professional, and incredibly helpful throughout the entire day. They worked hard to make sure everyone had a chance to catch fish and have a great experience. The boat was clean and comfortable, and the scenery out on the water was absolutely beautiful. We caught plenty of fish, had a lot of laughs, and created memories that will last a lifetime. Whether you're an experienced fisherman or a first-timer, I highly recommend this charter. I can't wait to book another trip!

    awesome day in Seward

    10 Hour Luxury Trip – Multispecies • 4 adults

    had an epic day fishing offshore with Capt Bub and Mate Malachai on The Salty Loot. Comfortable ride on the catamaran hull. Plenty of room for 6 anglers. Use Avet reels, great rods, lots of bait and rigs. Caught 3 Halibut in the 90lb class, limited on big Yelloweye, caught Black Rockfish, Flounder. Crew is professional, friendly, attentive and fileted alot of fish well and quickly. Helped facilitate freezing and shipping too. Highly recommend them to novice or experienced fishermen and women. great day. thanks

    Warriors in the Weather

    12 Hour – Halibut & Multi-Species • 2 adults

    The weather went from bad to badder but Captain Matty and Bub kept powering through looking for the best spot to catch fish. Matt managed the time very well for all of to make sure everybody at least got a halibut and then started working on the other species. Most people in this world would not have even been able to maintain their balance much less filet about 50 fish in less than two hours like Bub. Did. We were all watching…from the comfort of the cabin of course. My only regret is that my rain gear didn’t hold up and I was too soaking wet and cold to remember to shake their hands on my exit. I also brought a friend from Texas who fishes in the Gulf of America regularly and he had a great time experiencing Alaska this way.

    Captain Matt was committed to fishing the fish even though it was a slow start. But we endied the day with limit of halibut and rockfish. I’lol be using Blue Ice Charters again. The deck hand, bub was extremely professional and kept our hooks baited and worked so well with the kids!

    Everything went well. The boat, hardware & software functioned well. The Captain obviously knew what he was doing. He & the deckhand had great senses of humor. The knowledge of the Captain & deckhand complemented each other. That was a good complementary relationship. Thanks for the experience.
