Starfish Charters Halibut Fishing

Want to hook a REALLY BIG ONE?

Halibut fishing offers all the thrills an angler wants, culminating in a trophy photo with a fish almost as big as the fisherman halibut gallery.

Halibut can weigh more than 300 pounds and catches of 100 pound plus are common.

As a flatfish like sole and flounder, Halibut lay flat on the sea floor under a dusting of gravel, waiting for an unsuspecting crab or fish to pass. Deep water fishing is required to catch these giants. We use deep sea rods and Penn level wind reels to reel in halibut, which are most commonly caught in the early summer.

This species is well-managed by Canada Fisheries and in no danger of depletion.

When you fish for Halibut, you're also likely to hook many different types of fish, so you can take home a large and varied catch.

Halibut are the fish of choice for fish and chips! They can be cleaned, packed and frozen at the "Hardy Buoys" facility for your travel home. If you prefer, the frozen fish can be delivered right to your door.

If you're ready to hook a lifetime memory, contact us.
