Catch cleaning and filleting are handled for you at the end of the day, with options to vacuum pack and arrange local shipping so your haul can travel home safely.
What the day feels like
What the Day Feels Like
The trip unfolds as a purposeful offshore run: meet at the marina, head to established halibut and salmon grounds, and spend the day rotating rods around a small group while crew manage gear and safety. Electric reels smooth much of the heavy lifting so that both newcomers and regulars can sample the excitement of hauling a big fish, and at day’s end the crew washes, fillets and prepares your catch for transport or local shipment.
