Captain Jody wasted no time in getting us to the fish. We had a blast reeling in fish after fish, with hardly a break in the action. The boat is ideal for big water salmon fishing and is equipped with all the latest gear. I highly recommend this charter for anyone eager to get out and catch some salmon.

It was an incredible experience! Captain Jody was extremely knowledgeable, helpful, and easy to communicate with. He worked diligently and had us on fish immediately! The bites were consistent and strong. We were only one fish away from our limit, and my wife caught a giant 27+ pound king Salmon! This charter is top-notch!
