Hey guys...heading to Alaska in July/Aug for a week staying at Moose Pass at buddy cabin. Looking for suggestion or any recommended charter. At the moment we are book on Aug 1st and Aug 2nd on the Cracker Jack. Wow 370 per day going for halibut. I better get some barn door for that price. Initially we secure a whole boat for 3 days but a few of the guys in the group weren't interest :( so the cabin owner released it.

Also if someone know someone who rents a hobie kayak over there. Would love to try and catch a pac hali on a kayak out at Seward. I saw video of Rudy T video on youtube and man what a thrill to catch one on a kayak lol

He lives near a few river and lakes so I'll be trying to fish there or explore as much as possible. Wondering if I should bring my rod and reel. At any rate, anything else I should prepare or bring or check out would be appreciated. I'm looking forward to it already :)

Thanks

We went out a few years ago on the CrackerJack with Captain Andy Mezirow and Jeff Seward as deckhand back in 2011 and had a blast...

Excellent boat, gear, Captain and crew and everyone had a really good time.  :smt003

Here's the report with a vid and pics from the day:
