ROCKFISH AND SALMON Since Alaska fishing regulations does not permit halibut fishing on Tuesdays and Wednesdays, we target wicked looking rockfish and salmon, yelloweye, black rockfish, lingcod, and king salmon or silver salmon, depending on the season on these two days. All of these species are delicious table fare. These fish are located in the deeper waters in the Gulf of Alaska. Trips range from 5 to 7 hours and run 30 to 50 miles out of Homer.

Additional Information

Homer Alaska fishing trips require you to purchase a fishing license, plus bring your own drinks, snacks, and meals. King stamps and winter king derby tickets will also need to be purchased before your trip if applicable. It would be a shame to have to release a king salmon after a good fight, due to not having the proper stamp that allows you to legally keep the fish. Our captains are very knowledgable if you have any questions about king salmon stamps.

It should be noted that Alaska weather is unpredictable. You never know what the weather will be like on the ocean, so it’s best to be prepared for your trip with layered clothes and quality rain gear. Rubber boots are highly encouraged. We do have sweatshirts and t- shirts for sale in case you need some extra layers or want to rep your fishing company.

It also should be noted that based on the current regulations ADF&G, the daily halibut limit is one ANY size and one under 32 inches. Additionally, chartered boats are not allowed to fish halibut on Wednesdays.
