About

Our 3/4 day fishing trips are such a great way to get that Alaska halibut fishing experience without committing to a big full-day long day of fishing. This is also a great trip for those that might be concerned about getting a bit seasick. These are also great family trips with younger anglers.

These trips are around 6 hours in duration.

We generally stay inside the more protected waters of Kachemak Bay and the ride to our fishing grounds for these trips usually takes less than an hour.

Also, even though this is a single species halibut trip, we often catch a fair amount of pacific cod which is a great eating fish and the 2nd largest commercial fishery in Alaska. You definitely want to take some of this home!
