This was our first trip out and it will be remembered for a long time ! The communication before the trip put us at ease. captain Kurt and Tammy worked hard at at making out time enjoyable and a great learning experience. We would recommend his charter to anyone who wants to learn and have fun ! Honestly, it was like fishing with old friends !!
Weather started out OK, but fairly quickly turned to sustained 16 mph winds out of the east. That totally messed up the fishing, and the 4'+ swells wound up messing me up (seasick). Kurt was targeting Kings for us, but they were really scattered. Been on a number of charters in Ontario, but have never seen a captain and 1st mate work harder to get us on the fish. They were constantly checking water temps and adjusting the the depth of the rigs accordingly. Despite the rough water and difficulty finding fish, we definitely want to do it again........and will certainly hook up with Kurt and Jeff again when we do.
This was a great trip. Captain Kurt worked extremly hard, as well as First Mate Jeff. The fish moved out of the location where they were. Captian Kurt hunted them down. First Mate Jeff was utilizing his skills to try everything he could to get the fish excited. Between the two of them, working together, they pulled together a great day. We caught Kings, Brown and Rainbow Trout. When fishing, and you want hit after hit, sometimes that just doesn't happen. With a team like Kurt and Jeff, pulling out all stops to do what they do, and the knowledge they possess, it becomes a WONDERFUL, MEMORABLE TRIP. Thank you Captain Kurt and First Mate Jeff.
If anyone is looking for a great charter look no further. The captain did an excellent job and was very knowledgeable. We caught plenty of fish including few King Salmon, coho, and trout. The weather the few days before forced the fish to move and the captain used his knowledge and found them. The Captains mate was also on point, from the start of getting everything set up to the tear down, they have it down to a science. They were excellent at teaching ours kids and us exactly what to do to bring the fish in. Bring your group and enjoy a good time. Captain was also very good at communicating throughout the wholw process.
Our first fishing experience on a boat like this. The Captain and his associate were simply amazing. They were so patient with us and really explained everything. We caught I believe nine fish. I had no idea. It was so difficult to reel in these gigantic fish. Smiles from start to finish. I will never go with another charter. We got the best and we’re sticking with this one.
My son and I took our first salmon charter this morning with Captain Kurt and his son. From the time of booking Kurt took the time to learn what we were looking for and stayed in communication. The crew did a great job teaching my son and ensuring we had a great time. With just the two of us we caught our limit within a couple hours. We’ll definitely book again with Stalker Charters.
