The Fish House operates out of Seward, Alaska, running sportfishing charters through Kenai Fjords National Park. The Fish House offers a range of private and half-day trips targeting salmon, halibut, and rockfish. Trips include half-day rockfish charters, half-day and full-day salmon charters, dedicated halibut trips, and combo options that pair halibut with salmon or rockfish. Private charters accommodate groups of various sizes for customized itineraries.
Captains are United States Coast Guard licensed and the fleet is maintained for safety and comfort. Fishing gear, bait, and state-required licenses are provided or facilitated as part of the charter experience; guests receive clear briefings on safety, fishing techniques, and cleanup policies. Boats depart from the dock in Seward and navigate scenic waterways of Kenai Fjords National Park, offering both productive fishing grounds and wildlife viewing opportunities.
The Fish House emphasizes sustainable angling practices and adherence to Alaska Department of Fish and Game regulations. Catch handling and filleting services are available so guests can bring home fresh fish or arrange local processing. Seasonal timing is important: salmon trips are most active from mid-July through August, while halibut and rockfish opportunities depend on broader seasonal windows.
