"My family and I had an absolute blast, both days on the water, with Captain Josh, Captain Jordan, and Deckhand Cody. They made our trip extremely entertaining with their boating stories and Alaska wildlife knowledge. We will be returning to Big Butt, when we run out of 280 lbs of halibut."

To match the spectacular surroundings and get you to hot fishing fast, your guided fishing trip will be powered by M/V Early Riser or M/V Bait Ball, both premier offshore fishing machines equipped with top-of-the-line amenities, navigation, and fishing gear.
"Before our trip, Captain Josh answered all our online questions faster than we expected. His boat, Early Riser, was very comfortable and very clean. Even the bathroom was better than we’ve experienced on previous fishing trips. We enjoyed the halibut fishing immensely. It was obvious that Josh has over a decade of experience. Even with five of us, he was calm and collected. A great day of fishing."

"Had an amazing trip fishing for halibut with Big Butt Charters! Captain Josh got us into big fish right off the bat and got us our limit for the day. We had to buy a new freezer!! Good times were had by all and we will be back for more."
