We did 3 days of Halibut fishing with Aiden and Charlie. We traveled a long way to fish Halibut and we were not disappointed. Aiden and Charlie were friendly and genuinely wanted everyone to have a good time. They both also had great respect for the species and ecosystem. We are taking Halibut, rockfish and black cod back with us to Florida. Grateful for this experience. Must do!

We appreciate your thoughtful and thorough review! Fishing in Alaska is second to none for the fish you can take home. We are glad our crew was able to help you take your catch across country AND that you loved the experience all together!
A friend and I chartered 3 different boats with other charters but the O'Fish'ial (Artemis crew) was above and beyond better than what we experienced on the other charter services. The captain and his knowledge lead us into better fishing grounds and the deck mate was super knowledgeable and friendly. We all agreed it was the best time that we had while staying in Homer! I am already booking with the O'fish'ial for 2026.

Looking at you review my thought was who was his crew...? Then I realized it's really all of our crew. Any one of them could have had this review about their boat! (I can see on the back side you were out on the Artemis and we 100% agree the Captain and Deckhand make or break your trip and these guys are fantastic). We work hard to maintain a high level of professionalism and though NOT ALL crew can provide that in our industry, we are thrilled that ours do! Maintain the status quo for the customer experience to be top-notch! We look forward to hosting you in 2026!
The captain and deck hand made sure we had access to fish, we were comfortable, and they were personable. We had a wonderful time fishing with Eddy and Aiden on the Artemis. They worked hard to ensure everyone on board had a successful fishing adventure. It was a wonderful fishing adventure and would highly recommend them or future bookings
We had a great time, Captain Eddie and Charlie the deckhand made it and awesome experience even with the water being very choppy!

We can't control the water, but we can control our attitudes! These guys are high quality members of our team and we are proud to have them! We're glad this trip was worth writing about...all 5 Stars!
We did a one day full trip and were able to bag our limit! Such a great experience (despite the unfortunate period of sea sickness). Captain Eddie and Charlie were incredibly knowledgeable and patient, ensuring we had a successful voyage! Would highly recommend!

They are a top notch team! Thank you for your review!
Great day on the water with Capt. Austin and his able mate, Mike. My wife and I joined them for our first Alaska fishing trip and had a great time.
Saw beautiful scenery, whales, sea lions and more. What a wonderful day of fishing. We didn't catch a giant but barely handled the 60 plus pounders. Our boat, Amphritite was well built and comfortable and we appreciated the dry ride home.

We 100% agree with your review. Austin and Mike are great! The sea life is great! The dry ride is great and overall it sounds like your fishing was great! Glad to hear we delivered what we advertise! Until next time...
Wow!! Austin and Michael made a fantastic team. We were with them on a 10 to 12 hr halibut and rockfish charter. Austin the captain navigated rough seas with ease. His system of finding fish and knowledge of the most promising fishing spots paid off!! Michael worked hard to assist us all. This charter team was a well oiled machine. Thanks to you both for a memorable experience.

Great salmon and halibut charter! Eddie and Charlie were a great team and had enthusiastic personalities even at the end of the season. Would recommend them and Ofishial as a professional, safe and fun crew!

They are! And they strive to provide a trip you'll continue to share with others! So glad they brought you an experience worth recommending!
I had an amazing time fishing with Aaron, Jake and Charly. They worked hard from start to finish and we all caught our limit!

Thank you! They sure do--hard deck workers, filleters and crew that works hard to know your time was exactly what you'd hoped it would be when it concludes!
I went towards the end of the season with my sons. Loved every minute of it. I would recommend this charter. Extremely professional and helpful. The captain pitched in to help as the bite came fast and our boat limited out in about an hour. We did the 3/4 day trip which was perfect. Leave dock at 730am and back by 130pm. On the trip out we saw sea otters and whales.. which was a huge bonus. Fish were cleaned in the ride back.

Thank you! This is a great description from a client's view on how our day flows. We are always in the thick of providing and sometimes our online descriptions are from our perspective not the clients. Because of that we really appreciate the time you took to leave your review for others to see and we are excited to hear you also had a GREAT time in the process!
An awesome trip out of Homer for halibut. Loved every minute of it. Jake and Charlie were great deck hands. We caught our limit in about an hour. Would highly recommend if you've never been out before.

Yes! They are a dynamic team for sure! This season they have especially shined the light on the Artemis's potential to FISH! Excellent all around!
