The weather was beautiful, the views were stunning, but most importantly, Captain Dale and Victor were incredible hosts. You could tell they genuinely enjoyed taking us out and assisting the boys in the fishing process. We caught our limit and my boys had the best time.

Despite being not the best time of year or day, we hooked about 15 fish, got four salmon in the boat, and even caught and kept one delicious coho salmon! The boat is a marvel. Great tech, comfortable, and even has a bathroom. It is a smaller boat, our party of six was pretty close when we were all outside the cabin. But that is exactly what we were looking for as part of our family reunion. A.J. kept things moving with 2-3 poles in the water at all times. He was extremely knowledgeable about the boat, sound, and fish. I expect his father, the other captain, is almost as good! Highly recommended!!

Such a fun and memorable experience!

Alright guys, let me just say I had literally the best Saturday OF MY LIFE with these guys (zero…read moreexaggeration). Not only did I catch a salmon, but Michael, our Captain, took us right up to a humpback whale... I mean literally, it was rubbing against our boat... we were that close! Savannah was our skipper (I think that's proper terminology). She was extremely knowledgeable and helpful. Honestly, Savannah was prepping the bait and gutting the fish and it was mesmerizing to watch. She clearly has had a ton of experience and knows exactly what she's doing. SO cool. I really admire her! Not everyone caught a fish, but I did, and it was amazing. The adrenaline from reeling it in was so fun. Regardless, there's something about getting up early and watching the sunrise on the water that's just magical. We saw a humpback whale... up close and personal, and while that may not be the norm, we also saw a bunch of other sea life including porpis, sea lions and sea otters. Overall it's just a pleasant experience - just don't come in thinking your whole party will catch fish, because that certainly is not the case. HOWEVER - I will say - Michael was great about moving us to areas where there were fish and "bait fish" (whatever that means). The captain sets you up for success, and that's about all you can ask for! Tip: they tell you to show up at 5:45. We got there at 5:45 and nobody was there.. we were starting to think we were in the wrong spot or it was the wrong day. BUT, right around 6, sure enough everyone else showed up! Just a heads up :) Tip #2: Even if the weather looks nice... BRING LAYERS!! I almost left my winter jacket behind, as I was feeling foolish after seeing what everyone else was wearing. SO GRATEFUL I BROUGHT IT ALONG!!! It was freezing out on the water! But totally manageable if prepared :) THANK YOU MICHAEL AND SAVANNAH!!! I will be coming back! :)

I explained I wanted to book a trip for 2 people and he asked the dates I gave him 3 days and he also said the boat will only go out with 3 paid, I said I'm happy to pay for a 3rd if he didn't have one. Waited for his respond that was coming later that day. In the evening I text that I was on the way to the birthday party and wanted to know what of the 3 days we could fish!!! Folks it's NOW OCT 13th the party is over the month ended and the fish are gone but I'm still waiting for a call back. So what is the point of this review ? Because I would not pay someone for a trip And wait at a dock at 5:30am hoping my skipper shows up to fish.

We were totally interested until we learned what was advertised is…read moreabsolutely not the case. 1st off they say you can use boats in any of the markets they have all over the world. That is not true. There is only one available at a time and we knew we were going to be traveling heavily over the next few months so had checked different locations and none were available. Some of the markets we couldn't even check because they were on "a different booking system" so how would you even book it if you wanted. Also, if you want anything but a basic boat there is an additional nightly fee. And what really broke the straw was they advertise its pet friendly. Thats the case only on a couple of the boats otherwise NO PETS! There were also a lot of timing rules and booking rules. It actually just made it very difficult and confusing if and when you could rent something. We will stick just to having our own boat and renting one locally when we are traveling.
