About
Come join the Wild Coast Alaska crew for a full day charter aboard the Fiskr Valhalla out of Homer, AK. Full day charters are 8+ hours, beginning at 7 am from our slip in the Homer Small Boat Harbor.
All private full day charters are tailored based on guests’ desires, weather conditions, tides, season, and what fishing techniques/ species are producing the best results at the time of your trip. Species we fish for include halibut, salmon, rockfish and may include lingcod when in season (after July 1). It is common to put multiple species on the boat each day.
Private Trophy Charters are the Ultimate Alaska Fishing Experience! This is a long range trip designed to target bigger fish and includes actively jigging for Lincod, Yelloweye, and bigger Halibut. This trip is weather dependent and will be reduced in price to a Private Full Day Charter if the fishing grounds are not safe to reach.
In addition to the great fishing that Homer, AK has to offer, you will enjoy spectacular scenery and wildlife including eagles, otters, and whales. Families will appreciate the large heated cabin with a private on-board toilet.
For those interested in lodging options, take a look at our packages, which pair the private charters with exclusive accommodations for your group at our Beach House, where you will enjoy amazing views of Cook Inlet. It’s the perfect way to experience the Homer, AK area with family and friends!
