We were cancelled for high winds 2 days prior but we rebooked for salmon and rockfish since Wednesdays you can’t keep halibut. It turned out to be the best blessing in disguise! The weather was perfect and we caught our limit of king salmon (and BIG ones) within an hour and limited out on rockfish for the boat. I had never fished before and Jordan was a great instructor and mentor!He was so helpful and funny. Saw many whales and sea otters and eagles. It was a new boat and very clean with a spotless bathroom. I would highly recommend Big Butt Charters to anyone landing in Homer!

Man, what an awesome day on the water with Captain Josh. We had a party of six on his boat and he handled it flawlessly. He got us to the fish, gave thorough instructions, and have pretty much convinced me that Homer is the city I want to move to in Alaska!!! Super knowledgeable and engaging, but here was nothing negative about this trip whatsoever. Thank you again Captain Josh and the amazing group I went out fishing with today. I will always come back to Big Butt Charters !!!! #armystrong
Booked a combo trip for my wife, daughter, and myself as part of our Alaska vacation. Shared the trip with 3 others. Capt. Jordan and first mate Schooner (Husky) lead the way in a newer boat (2yrs). The boat had plenty of room and was very clean, including the head. Capt Jordon put us on fish right away after a 2 hour boat ride through the barrier islands. We all did very well. I will also add that Tyler was also helpful when I called the office a couple of times adjusting our plans. Overall we were very happy with the experience we had with Big Butt Charters. Highly recommend!

This was the best fishing charter that I have ever gone out on. The boat was comfortable. The crew was knowledgeable and very helpful. They took time to demonstrate the technique for hooking a halibut. Definitely the friendliest crew that I have ever met. Everything was set up so professionally. We watched the crew fillet the fish and they had a local fish packing company available when the boat arrived back in port to collect the fish if you wished to have them prepared for shipping. I highly recommend Big Butt charters and Captain Jordan Cox.

We booked this well in advance of our trip to Alaska and it was easy even from the UK. We had good updates throughout and clear instructions of where to go and what to bring. On the day we had a short safety briefing and a trip out into the beautiful Alaskan wilderness. Fantastic day on the water with nice people, caught some fish..bonus and iverall a brilliant experience. Thanks Josh and Rachel
