Fishing for giant halibut in Resurrection Bay is a saltwater fisherman's dream. Accessed from the picturesque town of Seward, Resurrection Bay is the premier destination for Alaska halibut fishing. The bay's currents and bottom structure create a confluence of nutrient-rich water and unparalleled habitat for several species of bottom fish, including giant halibut. These waters are loaded with trophy halibut, lingcod, rockfish and, when in season, hundreds of thousands of silver salmon. Halibut are permanent residents of these waters, meaning that these giant fish are in season all summer long.

Fish for halibut with the best equipment and comfortable charter boats.

The boats we use are fast and equipped with the finest navigation and fish finding instruments, tackle and safety gear. Each boat has private rest room facilities and heated enclosed cabins for your comfort. Adding a day of halibut fishing to any multi-day fishing package is highly recommended. Regular sightings of whales, sea otters, Steller sea lions, and breathtaking views of sweeping glaciers and rugged mountain scenery make every trip to Resurrection Bay a memorable sightseeing excursion.
