I highly recommend Ninilchik Charters, we have booked several outings with them and they are very professional and an outstanding group of people. From the time you set up your reservation to when you go they send you reminders of what to bring to have a wonderful and memorable trip.

The wind was bad, which caused this small boat to be tossed to and fro- couldn't stand up without falling. On a better note the staff were friendly and helpful and we all got our 2 halibut each.

Amazing. 3 of us went out with Captain John and we put on the boat 60#, 56#, 40# and a couple other small Halibut less than 28" and we were all back to the dock for lunch.

I'd definitely book with these guys again. Great service & great charter. Thanks.

Ernie (the captain) and his deckhand made fishing easy. If one is willing to listen to the captain,…read morehe will tell you exactly what to do make the halibut fishing productive. Here's how the schedule of the day went. 430 am - met them at their house, about a five minute drive from the All Seasons Campground (RV, tent sites, and cabins). They took our bags and loaded them on the boat, which was smart so we didn't have to worry about that at the boat launch. 4:40-5:00 - drove to the boat launch. The boat launch had a lady with free coffee and breakfast burritos. There was one port-o-potty at the boat launch. 5:15ish - launch. This is a cool process. Have fun! We took about a 40 minute ride out. 6ish - lines dropped. Took a while for the fish to start biting, but once they did, we all got our over 28 inches. The captain and deck hand stood by to bait hooks, grab fish, and handle tangled lines. Story time: The current was about 2.5 knots and our lines got tangled bringing the big one (82 pounds) up. Ernie grabbed a harpoon like contraption and stick it through the fish in between untangling things to make sure we didn't lose the fish. By 9 am we had our big fish so we headed to a chicken hole and got four more fish. Currents were pretty crazy so we called it after about 90 minutes. We were back to Bottom Line Charters by 12:15. They filleted and vacuum sealed all our fish (for a very reasonable cost AND of you check in on here, there's 10% of this service). All said and done by 2 pm. Would 100% use again.

No chicken holes. We struggled to catch a small one under 22" for our 2nd butt. The deckhand did and awesome job keeping up with all the action and even got in a wrestling match with a 99 lb butt. She should be in the WWE. Lol! She also fillets the Halibut to perfection with no waste. So good I made a video. Heck even the vac packing done by the lodge is awesome and a bonus to a long day of hauling in monster fish. All I can say is hands down out of all the charters.... These guys are the best imo and I don't vouch for just anyone. SPARTANPHIL
