YOUR HOMER FISHING GUIDE

Known as the "Halibut Fishing Capital of the World"!

The state of Alaska has set a limit of 4 halibut harvested annually, per angler. The daily limit per angler is 2 and charters and guides are not permitted to go Halibut fishing on Wednesdays, so don't try and book a day trip for this species of fish on that day of the week. If Wednesday is your only option, then the area also offers fantastic salmon fishing.

If you are new to the area or want to get the most out of one of the best places in the world to fish, then we recommend spending a full day fishing for halibut and salmon with an experienced fishing captain.

Don't let shows like "Deadliest Catch" scare you away. Under the right captain, the waters of Kachemak Bay and its inlet (including Halibut Cove) surround Homer Alaska with high-quality fishing for every experience level.

If you are a local looking for a spur of the moment shore fishing trip then load up your fishing poles and fishing lures and head towards the area known as Homer Spit. A good place to start in this local fishing spot is near the Land's End Hotel.

Make sure you check the weather and check with your homer fishing charter captain before you head out onto the water. We recommend asking your fishing guide for recommendations on the best clothing to wear for the conditions of the day, so you can stay prepared and have the best fishing experience possible.

The best season to enjoy a halibut fishing trip, in the Kenai Peninsula, is during the months of June, July, and August.
