Our charter was booked for halibut about two weeks in advance for a competitive, reasonable price…read more As we were driving to the location we received a phone call that our charter would be delayed as an earlier charter was not having luck catching fish. Our charter eventually departed Ninilchik about 2 hours delayed. The crew was not informative or accommodating initially, zero safety information relayed to us, no idea where or if life vests were located on that boat. Furthermore, they didn't brief us at all concerning what we could expect from them, or what they expected from us. Upon arriving at the fishing location they quickly rigged our gear, told us to drop our bait and begin fishing. Once we started catching fish they were very accommodating and were anxious to help us. They smoked around us without asking if that was ok with us... but ultimately we didn't care. Upon arriving back in Ninilchik they quickly filleted the fish and gave us the goods, offering to vacuum pack it for us, and we were on our way home within about 45 mins of arriving back in Ninilchik.

Brad knew the names of all the beautiful volcanoes in the Aleutian range looming in the distance. We caught a lot of Halibut! The boat was pretty deluxe. I wanted to live on it. Brad filet'd the fish on the way back, and a fish processing boy was waiting for us at the dock. Getting the fish vacuum-sealed and frozen was a cinch! I'd definitely fish with Silver Fox again!

What an experience! I booked an all day halibut fishing trip through Inlet charters who is…read moreprimarily a booking company on the Whistler boat with captain Jack, and two amazing female deck hands. It was me my husband, our two teenage kids and toddler. My daughter hooked a halibut within the first couple of minutes of dropping her line at the first spot, which got us all very excited. We all really enjoyed ourselves, especially the kids. We went to multiple spots to maximize the amount of fish which we all caught our limit without any problems and also was able to hook a handful of cods. Being that it was a slightly larger boat none of us got seasick, which I was really concerned for being that we are very prone to motion sickness. It was a beautiful day on the sea and we were blessed with beautiful sunny weather. We even got to witness orcas, puffins and sea otters. Overall thank you for such a great experience one that we will remember forever.

A tremendous Experience!!…read more From the initial call to the office to book my tour to the end result of a day long fishing trip this was a wonderful experience I would highly recommend. The office staff was so helpful and responsive to my questions. Due to the laws pertaining to the halibut fishing I took a Salmon and Rockfish trip on the Whistler with Captain Avery Ault. The boat was clean and well maintained. The young man who was our deckhand was attentive and extremely knowledgeable. The captain worked hard at getting us on fish which he was very successful. All of us on the boat met our daily limits in Rockfish and Salmon. Overall a great day. Highly recommend this company!
