Alan knocked it out of the park.  We fished with him on 8/1. Our morning started out on a bad note as we were delayed 2 hrs due to road construction.  When we finally made it to the pier Captain Alan was ready to go.  He brought us right to the fish.  It was amazing.  We were targeting halibut and got three keepers.  He also switched us over to salmon and it was awesome.  The fight they put up is unbelievable.  He was extremely patient with all three kids and answered all there questions.  He even joked around and they were kidding back and forth.  It says a lot when the kids say next time we come back we have to use Captain Alan again.  We left we 10 fish in total.  He made the entire trip enjoyable and memorable.  We will always remember his famous quote as we had a little fun family competition going on “you only catch what you can handle”.  I would highly recommend Catain Alan without any reservation.  Thanks for the great time!!

We spent a day fishing with Al along the outer Islands of Barkley Sound as it was too snotty to go offshore. We caught 3 Chinook and one Coho, and enjoyed a great day on the water. One of our primary reasons for going with Al was to learn about gear, technique and productive locations.  We learned a lot, and Al even came to our boat later to look at our gear and offer advice. It worked - the next day we caught a Coho on our own boat, using our downrigger sand other gear for the first time!
I highly recommend Captain Al and Wild Pacific.

Captain Al runs a clean and tidy 30 foot Grady white . He has lots of experience and knowledge of the area. Captain Al didn’t waste anytime getting fish on our lines!! limited out early morning with chinooks then moved on to catching us halibut. Big Al worked his butt off all day while keeping the fighting area spotless!Running from two different fishing spots in comfort with minimal down time , and all the while gear was well maintained .  Then , Al didn’t waste any time getting the gear out after moving ,and constantly checking the lines for small shakers and kelp . Can’t say enough….....terrific guide!!!!
I would only get big Al for my next west coast adventure . Awesome guy!!
Thanks Al
