King Salmon & Halibut Adventures in Seward, Alaska
For the ultimate breath-taking…rod-bending…light-tackle fight of a lifetime – if you have never hooked into a King Salmon, this trip is a must-do! King (Chinook) Salmon are the largest Salmon in the Pacific Ocean. King Salmon range from 15 to 60 pounds and up. We target these feeder Kings for at the beginning of the season until the Silver (Coho) Salmon start to show up.
We fish for King Salmon by trolling, with the boat moving at low speed, drawing lines through the water at different depths, dressed with lures or bait. Our captains have been fishing for Kings for several years in these waters and are dialed into what entices these finicky feeders. The limit for these wild ocean King Salmon is one or two per person per day, depending on the area fished.
We spend half our day trolling and half our day fishing for halibut. The typical halibut caught on our fishing charters weigh between 20 and 80 pounds, with many fish over 100 pounds brought in daily in Seward.
