Homer King Fishing

Homer King Fishing

King Salmon Trolling Charters and now Halibut Charters.
Go fishing with Jeff & Shelly's personal guides - our commercial fishing family. The F/V Redemption is a working seiner and is in Prince William Sound in June, July and part of August - but when they are back it is all fun in Kachemak Bay. The King's Ransom is a smaller faster boat, for small groups. They supply the fishing tackle and bait, you just need a fishing license, King stamp, food and beverages, and layers of clothes and warm footwear.  (Rain gear if it's raining).
You can go on their website or Facebook to book with them.
