About This Adventure
New Federal regulations have dramaticly changed Charter Halibut fishing. They have limited the amount of Halibut retention trips per day to 1trip per boat and per Halibut permit.
We are offer Catch and release trips which will save you money on a few levels.
1st - The cost of the trips.
2nd - Cost of Processing the retained Halibut.
With the Catch and Release trips we have vendors who can, if you want, purchase Halibut and send it home. Yes, its not the Halibut you caught. However it is freshly Commercially caught and processed.
Remember Charter fishing trips are mostly about experincing the rush of hooking into and landing a Halibut. Come on out, bend some rods and enjoy seeing some whales, if you want. Remeber a halibut meal is great but only last for the moment. Hooking into a few with family and friends is the memory that lasts a lifetime. FYI - No limit on how many Halibut we can catch and release.
Times are flexible, please call for if the listed times do not match up with your arrival.
