Here in Humboldt county we fish for King Salmon. Each year our salmon season varies dramatically. Generally, as early as late May to September (Labor day) we get a shot at these tasty fish.
 

We can fish very close to shore ~50' of water and out as deep as 250'. So, it can encompass most of our area. We could run North as far as Trinidad or South to Cape Mendocino and out 8-10 miles. Most of the time we troll but at times we would be mooching.

The Pacific Halibut is by far the most desirable table fair available to us. Our season is highly regulated much like King Salmon. Usually May-October. We are given a quota and when it is met we are done. So don't wait!

They are deep (200'-300').  We use heavy bottom fishing gear. There is a reason! Every drop could be a 50+ pound fish. Most years, much larger fish are caught. Hopefully one of these big ones could be yours.
 

Pacific Halibut hit hard! If you want a fight, these are the fish for you.

Here along the North Coast, we have quality Rockfish and Lingcod fishing available to us. We can run North or South depending on ocean conditions. Either way, we have an amazing mix of rockfish. At any time Lingcod are caught as well. Often, Lingcod eats your rockfish or even a smaller Lingcod. What an amazing fishery. Sometimes it is really fast. Total mayhem! Lots of fun and excellent eating fish. May to December (Seasons subject to regulation changes by Cal Fish and Wildlife at any time).

​

*Redding Rock trips are available but must be specially arranged. Prices vary depending on the trip. Must have a group of 4 to be able to book this trip.

When all else fails we can explore Humboldt Bay for several species of fish. It is open to fishing year round. Depending on fishing seasons and regulations we have Salmon, California Halibut, rockfish, Lingcod, sharks and rays available. During the summer months most of these species are possible. In the winter time shark fishing is our best bet depending on tides. 

The most popular fishery in Humboldt Bay is California Halibut. They are smaller than the Pacific Halibut, averaging 5-10 pounds with some occasional larger fish over 30 pounds! They are usually caught in water 10 feet or less. We fish with light tackle and live bait. When hooked they take off at blistering speeds. California Halibut fishing makes for a really exciting day on the bay.

Multi-species trips are usually a blend of two different fisheries.

Rockfish/Lingcod and Pacific Halibut, Salmon and Pacific Halibut, or Rockfish/Lingcod and Salmon.
These trips are an hour longer than single species.  When limits are reached, we head back in.

These are by far the most exciting fish we get to fish for in Humboldt.  Tuna hit hard and never stop. Frequently, when one hits several others hit too. In a brief moment, the boat becomes alive with an excited fisherman fighting fish in all directions.
    We troll initially and depending on conditions follow up with live bait or throw jigs and swimbaits.
    Keep in mind this fishery is the most difficult to plan due to the need for them to come within range. So, if you are interested get your name on my tuna list ASAP (Please contact me).  Be advised it happens fast. Often I only have 24 hours' notice prior to departure. Frequently, people near the bottom of the list go simply because they are available. That is tuna fishing. It's lots of fun. 

July-October

​

If the conditions change and we can not run for albacore the trip will not be cancelled but change to a different trip (Bottom fishing/Combo) the cost of the trip will change to those prices.

The North Coast is rich with history, and Humboldt Bay and its surrounding headlands are full of beauty, both big and small. On our trips, we explore everything from whales to microscopic marine life using nets, lenses, and tanks to uncover often-overlooked creatures.

Humpback whales are most common, typically found 10–15 miles southwest over the Eel River Canyon, with occasional gray, blue, and orca sightings. Harbor porpoises, elephant seals, sea lions, harbor seals, and diverse seabirds are frequently seen, with puffins nesting at Cape Mendocino.

For plant lovers, we also explore marine algae... let’s talk seaweed!

Private trips are available for up to six passengers, perfect for family outings, celebrations, or memorials.

Pricing varies.
