  It was a blast!

  7 Hour Trip – Whole Day Excursion on June 20, 2026 • 6 adults

  Our halibut fishing trip was hands down one of the best experiences of our entire Alaska vacation! Captain Josh was absolutely amazing knowledgeable, professional, patient, and so much fun to spend the day with. Josh knew exactly where to take us. We barely went five minutes without having fish on, and at times we had four fish hooked at once! The action was nonstop, and Josh worked incredibly hard to make sure everyone had an amazing experience. He was always ready to help, kept everything running smoothly, and made the entire trip exciting from start to finish. It was clear that Josh truly knows these waters and loves his job (yaab)! We felt safe and comfortable the entire time, and his personality made the experience even better. He was genuinely the best captain we could have asked for. If you are looking for a halibut fishing charter in Icy Strait Point/Hoonah, book with Captain Josh. You will not regret it! We cannot recommend him highly enough and would fish with him again in a heartbeat.

  Efficient Halibut Catch!

  3.5 Hour Trip – Halibut (Shared) - 11:00 AM on August 15, 2026 • 4 adults

  Captain Herm showed us a great time! You never lnow when you book a trip like this what to expect. He was demonstrating to us how to jig and upon dropping the first line at nearly 200’ he had hooked our first. He was so relaxed at that point I knew he knew we’d have a good morning. We caught our limit quickly, rhen did some catxh and release before searching for wildlife with the rear of our time. Great experience, highly recommend!

  Make sure you acquire alaska fishing license in advance. Keeping fish is logistically (and financially) a little tougher in icy straight point but was delivered in great shape. great day of fishing and sightseeing (like paying for a whale tour but also getting some great fishing).
