Alan was an excellent host - very knowledgeable, super prepared, a hard worker and so easy to talk to. A perfect day all around.

Alan was awesome, lots of laughs to be had.
Fishing was a little spotty most of the day but he put in effort and fishing picked up near the end of our trip and he kept at it for an extra 2 hours getting us 3 more halibut and a nice chinook, we could not be more appreciative of his effort. Definitely recommend!

We spent a day fishing with Al along the outer Islands of Barkley Sound as it was too snotty to go offshore. We caught 3 Chinook and one Coho, and enjoyed a great day on the water. One of our primary reasons for going with Al was to learn about gear, technique and productive locations.  We learned a lot, and Al even came to our boat later to look at our gear and offer advice. It worked - the next day we caught a Coho on our own boat, using our downrigger sand other gear for the first time!
I highly recommend Captain Al and Wild Pacific.
