2022 Fishing Rates & Information

3% sales tax and 2% credit card fee will be added. We accept cash, VISA and MasterCard. We require a credit card to hold your reservation with a seven day cancellation fee attached, unless we are able to fill your reservation no fee would be charged. The balance is due on the day of your charter.

We offer full boat group rates and military discounts, please call for more information.

If your charter is cancelled due to inclement weather which precludes safe fishing, there will be no charges. Note, however, that only unsafe (rough water) conditions dictate this action. We do not consider rain to be inclement weather.

* The International Pacific Halibut Commission has deemed that we will not be fishing for Halibut on Wednesdays, so please keep this in mind when booking your vacation.

* Two fish bag limit, one fish any size, while other fish must be under 28 inches.
