This trip allows guests to make the most out of their day on the water. During peak season halibut and salmon are not far from one another and fishing can be as easy as pulling the anchor and setting out the down riggers! Most trips will start by running to the most productive halibut grounds. Once the limit is met or guests have had their fill of bottom fishing we will transition to salmon fishing.
Guest preferences and weather are always taken into consideration and some days it is advantageous to pursue salmon first then halibut. Rockfish and lingcod are also on the menu during this charter, both species prefer reefs and rocky structure often near our salmon fishing locations. Speak with your guide about what your preferences are and what they think is best!
Be aware from May 13th to September 9th all Tuesdays will be closed to charter halibut fishing. Please understand this is outside of our control and plan accordingly when booking.
