Why take this tour?

Southeast Alaska and Icy Strait in particular, has some of the best halibut and salmon fishing around. The biggest halibut on record was caught inside Icy Strait!

About your Captain:

Captain Billy is a locally raised Tlingit of Hoonah, Alaska. His Tlingit name is Deikee Jaak of the Wooshkeetaan “Eagle/Shark House.” Captain Billy started fishing the waters of SE Alaska and Icy Strait with his father, uncles and grandfather at a young age. Captain Billys knowledge of area waters is unsurpassed and his desire to share it with you is second to none!

About the boat:

The Silver Spoon is a 36 foot custom aluminum catamaran. The catamaran hull makes for a nice, fast ride and stable fishing platform.

She is outfitted with Twin Honda 225 Outboards which makes getting to the fishing grounds a short ride!

Frequently asked questions

This charter has a max of 6 Anglers.
Yes, there is a Marine Head on board. While a Marine Head is considered a bathroom it is very small amd really only suitable for #1 visits!:) We highly encourage guest to use the full size restroom at the Excursion Hub pick up point.
We get this question a lot. Becoming seasick is always a possibility for those who are prone to it. We suggest guest that are prone to sea sickness take the appropriate measure by using a patch or by taking dramamine. The waters are generally calm during the summer months and on the days when the wind and tide do make the water choppy, the motion of the boat is not of the kind that induces motion sickness.
The Silver Spoon is a custom aluminum catamaran made by Munson Co Inc. It is fully-equipped with all available fishing & safety gear. The boat has a heated cabin, restroom, and comfortable seating for all.
Any fish you catch, within the limits, are yours to keep if you’d like. We work with a local fish processor to have your catch processed and shipped to your home. If you would like to pay the processor to process and ship, there are easy order form cards for you to fill out on board so that you can keep track of your fish and ensure it is processed to your specifications.
