Mid-Day Private Charter – 4 hour Peak Season
Mid-day 4 hour private charters are only available for private groups. The cost is by the boat. This trip is only offered during peak season, which is June 1st to September 30th of each year.
Typically this trip begins at about 1:00 pm – 1:30pm or when our morning trip is done. Sometimes the morning trip limits early and your group may have the option to arrive early for the trip. This allows your group to capitalize on the more active morning fish.
$275 Per Person, with a minimum of 4 anglers
We can take a max of 6 anglers.
4 hour Private Charter – Off Peak Season
4 hours private charters are designed for friends, families and more, who are on a budget or have limited time to fish. This is only available in off peak times of the year, which is October 1st to March 31st, season dependent.
4 hour private charters have a flexible start time, but typically we start at 8am each day.
$275 Per Person, with a minimum of 4 anglers
We can take a max of 6 anglers.
How we fish up to 6 anglers – We troll for salmon using state of the art downriggers. With controlled depth fishing, we only run up to 3 downriggers at a time. Sometimes due to current we are limited to 2 downriggers. Customers rotate turns for bites/chances to land a fish. This is common industry practice and yields better results than fishing too much gear and tangling frequently.
Deposits
A $50.00 deposit per angler is required at the time of your reservation. We charge a $10 administrative processing fee per person, which is not refundable in the event you cancel your trip at any time.
The remaining balance of your total must be remitted on the day of your fishing trip. The remaining balance can only be made by cash or credit card at the boat ramp, we do not accept checks.
We accept Visa, Mastercard, American Express and Discover on the day of your trip.
Refund/Cancellation Policy
In order to receive a 100% refund of your deposit, you must provide a 14-day notice of cancellation prior to your scheduled date. If you do not provide a 14-day notice of cancellation, you will forfeit the deposit fee of $50.00 per angler. If you paid the trip in full, you will receive a refund minus the deposit for the trip. The $10 administrative processing fee per person is not refundable.
If a trip has to be cancelled by the captain due to dangerous or un-fishable waters, re-scheduling a trip is typically no problem. We want to get you and your group out on the water to fish. We will work with your schedule and ours, taking into account the quality of fishing and the water conditions.
If we are unable to re-schedule your group because our schedules don’t work, you will receive a 100% refund (including the administrative processing fee). The captain makes the final decision on cancellations due to dangerous or un-fishable waters.
Fishing License
One day licenses are available at the boat for those who fly in late and cannot get a license prior to the trip. This price includes a dealer fee per license.
- One day fishing license – $10
Tips are not included in your rate. Tips should be based on how hard your captain or deckhand works for you. Deckhands work strictly for tips. In the sport fishing industry, tips are 15 – 20% per person. (That is $30 to $40 per angler)
