FAQ's

Q: What is the best time of day to fish?

A: Larger numbers of Chinook Salmon bite early and late in the day, with the larger-sized fish feeding midday. Coho salmon, lake trout, brown trout, and rainbow trout bite at any time of the day!

Q: Level with me: Do I need to tip? If so, who and how much?

A: It is customary to tip the first mate about 15% to 20% of the total trip cost if you believe he has earned it. The mate who will be fishing with you has experience not just as a fisherman, but as a trained first mate for charter fishing. Tipping the captain is not necessary.

Q: How many people can come along on our fishing trip?

A: The coast guard allows charter fishing captains to bring up to 6 guests at one time. If your party is larger than 6 we can make accommodations with other businesses in the area to get everyone out. Even extra-large groups can be accommodated.

Q: Will we still fish if the weather is bad?

A: All final decisions about whether or not the boat leaves the dock due to weather will be made by the captain. The captain will take into consideration the experience, age, and physical ability of the group before making a final determination. We want you to have fun, so you return to us in the future.

In the event we cannot get out fishing at your scheduled time, we can hold the deposit to reschedule. If you are unable to fish at another time, the full deposit will be returned to you. We will not fish in any dangerous weather.

Q: Do I need to pay for fish cleaning?

A: No, fish cleaning and bagging is taken care of in the total cost of the trip, and will be done on the boat by the first mate or at the local bait and tackle shop.

Q: Is alcohol permitted on board?

A: Yes, please consume responsibly.

Q: Do we keep the fish we catch?

A: Yes.
