Halibut Fishing

Description

Be sure to read the Special Notes further down this page for important requirements and restriction.

What You Will Visit:

Halibut Fishing Cruise
A modern cabin cruiser ferries you to Icy Strait's hottest fishing spots where the waters teem with Pacific halibut, creating ideal angling conditions. Take in the magnificent scenery and the refreshing breezes as the boat's mates assist with instructions and your gear. There is a maximum of six guests per boat, and fishermen are in control of their own pole and tackle. You can purchase your fishing license aboard the boat, and your catch may be processed locally and shipped to your home for an additional charge but may not be brought back onboard your cruise ship.

What You See Along The Way:
Icy Strait is also known for an abundance of marine life, so keep your eyes peeled for whales, sea lions, porpoises and other marine mammals.

Photo Opportunities:
Be sure to bring your camera to capture moments during this memorable fishing experience.

Snack:
Cookies, crackers, coffee and tea are offered while you're enjoying your time on the water.

Special Notes:

Minimum age is 6. Rubber-soled or deck shoes must be worn. Bring appropriate outdoor clothing. Boats will carry a maximum of 6 guests. Please remember you are purchasing the opportunity to catch fish, not a guarantee of doing so. Your catch may be processed locally and shipped to your home for an additional charge, but may not be brought back onboard your cruise ship.
