I’ve done a few trips out of a few places including Homer and Seward in the past. Some have been okay, some were regrettable, but 10/10 would definitely come back for a trip with Captain Keith. Cozy boat, hot coffee was a nice bonus, did some sight seeing on the way out, got down to business once anchored at the spot and hauled in some great halibut. Keith has all the right gear; he was generous with bait and clearly knew how best to get “the big one” in the boat. His harpoon skills were very welcome as that last few feet are always the most nerve racking!
All-in-all a fantastic trip! Weather forecasts can be very unreliable, so just plan to go for it and don’t base decisions to cancel on a forecast days or even weeks before. Even if it rains, it might not last long, and rain shouldn’t stop you from fishing anyway! The only thing that could have ruined the day was unsafe seas, which happens, and is always the captain’s call in the end. There was a small craft advisory the day before our trip, but we got lucky and it mostly cleared up for our day.
I’d recommend meeting at the docks with an open mind and trust Keith’s recommendation on where to fish, what for, and how. We had originally intended to target silvers, but it was getting late in the season, so Keith set out for halibut and we’re all very happy he did!
Hoping to book again next season!
