Fishing Charters in Kodiak!
Full Day Fishing Charters
Our full day charters give you the best opportunity to fish for multiple species in one trip,including TWO halibut, several varieties of salmon, ling cod (starting July 1st) black bass, pacific cod, and numerous varieties of rockfish. On occasion we also pull up a hungry octopus or starfish- you just never know what is on the hook!
Fishing in Kodiak is very productive, because our boats frequently get to their favored fishing grounds in an hour or less, unlike other locations around Alaska. Our wide variety and two halibut limit make Kodiak a great port of call for ocean charters. As do our friendly and informative helpful charter captains.
Catching the early morning tides, our captains like to depart between 7 and 8 AM. Every captain has his own special fishing hole, so sit back, wake up with hot coffee and enjoy the ride. Along the way enjoy breathtaking views of the nearby islands, as well as sea lions, otters, puffins and humpback whales.
Once your boat arrives at the first fishing hole, the captain and crew will set out the individual rods for their guests. There are different kinds of fishing rods to use when fishing. For halibut, referred to as the ‘bottom fish’, it’s a stand-up, 30-80 pound test rod with 300-400 yards of line. For king salmon, the trolling rod is used with 30-50 pound test line. Once in position, the guests stand vigil to hook a ‘barn-door’ size halibut or king salmon often weighing in at 20-40 pounds.
All of our charter boats offer a heated cabin and restroom. Ourfull day charters also include a box lunch, snacks and beverages for the day. The price includes all the required fishing equipment, tackle and bait. Fish processing is not included in the price, as our boats bring your fish directly to the processor at the end of the day to be filleted, frozen, vacuum sealed and boxed for shipping at a separate cost. Overnight shipping by FedEx is also available.
Half Day Fishing Charters
For those of you with limited schedules, our custom half-day charters are the perfect fit. Because the summer light extends into the evening hours, our four hour charters may depart in the morning, mid-day or late afternoon.
The captain will explain the tides, weather and fish available at the time of your departure; most often the charter will focus on one species as a priority. Once the captain knows the preference he will chart the course and when you limit out on the first choice, the chase will be on for the others!
There is a 2-3 person minimum to go out on a half-day charter. But we often have someone else already signed up or looking to go! So give us a call and let us plan your fun!
What to bring?
We recommend that you wear at minimum a hooded rain jacket, as well as waterproof pants and boots if possible. We also suggest you bring your camera, video camera and binoculars to make the most of your day out on the water- you never know when a whale is going to surface or a huge halibut is going to bite!
