    Great Experience

    6 Hour Trip • 6 adults • 1 child

    We had a great time with Bucket List Charters! The water was a little rough, but the boat handled it extremely well and we always felt comfortable. The crew worked hard the entire trip to get us on fish despite the tough conditions. They were especially great with my 12 year old son, helping him reel in his first big King Salmon, which made the trip even more memorable. Great crew, amazing experience and a lot of fun—we’d definitely go again!

    Reported catch:
    Chinook Salmon
    Coho Salmon

    Fun trip!

    6 Hour Trip • 5 adults

    I think we got somewhat lucky, but we also had great help from the captain and first mate - caught 19 total fish!!!! Quite a few salmon and some large lake trout. First mate Lily did an awesome job landing the fish and keeping the poles in the water for the maximum fishing experience! Outside the fishing, it was a beautiful morning and was awesome even just seeing the sun come up while out on the Lake. Well worth the money!

    Reported catch:
    Lake Trout
    Coho Salmon
    Chinook Salmon

    Exceptional Family Trip

    Our family of 6 had a great time with Captain Art & First Mate Brian. They were both friendly, patient, kind, knowledgeable & so much more. Everyone in our family was able to land a fish & we all had a blast doing it. I would definitely recommend Bucket List Fishing Charters to anyone looking for a great day out on the lake.
