I’ve done a few trips out of a few places including Homer and Seward in the past. Some have been okay, some were regrettable, but 10/10 would definitely come back for a trip with Captain Keith. Cozy boat, hot coffee was a nice bonus, did some sight seeing on the way out, got down to business once anchored at the spot and hauled in some great halibut. Keith has all the right gear; he was generous with bait and clearly knew how best to get “the big one” in the boat. His harpoon skills were very welcome as that last few feet are always the most nerve racking!

All-in-all a fantastic trip! Weather forecasts can be very unreliable, so just plan to go for it and don’t base decisions to cancel on a forecast days or even weeks before. Even if it rains, it might not last long, and rain shouldn’t stop you from fishing anyway! The only thing that could have ruined the day was unsafe seas, which happens, and is always the captain’s call in the end. There was a small craft advisory the day before our trip, but we got lucky and it mostly cleared up for our day.

I’d recommend meeting at the docks with an open mind and trust Keith’s recommendation on where to fish, what for, and how. We had originally intended to target silvers, but it was getting late in the season, so Keith set out for halibut and we’re all very happy he did!

Hoping to book again next season!

My family and i had a great trip! We were able to see a whale with her baby, sea lions and sea otters and we learned some great history about Seward and some experiences of Captin Keith. The weather was perfect but the fish weren’t biting. What a great time being out on the water!

Great trip, we were fortunate to have good weather. Enjoyed Captain Keith’s experience, sense of humor and equipment. We were also fortunate to end the trip with a cooler full of fish. Highly recommend.

Comfortable boat, it is little dated but seemed to run well and did handle any waves well.  Fished halibut with Captain Keith for a full day with my parents and my wife.  I find it is always important to have a good marine head so my mom and wife are comfortable on the full day trips,  The weather was good but the fishing was only so so.  We did catch our limit but nothing of any great size but not really the captains fault.  Also did some bonus salmon.  The boats salmon gear was well taken care of and newer gear,  the halibut reels were a little tired and could have been in a little better shape.  Would I fish with him again, yes.  Seems like a good knowledgeable captain on a solid boat.

Had a great time with Captain Keith! We caught plenty of fish, he answered all of our questions, and was very patient with the newbie on board. Great with kids and adults!
