    With a stellar reputation built on consistently putting guests on fish, this Homer charter operation runs a professional outfit with multiple captains and boats. Captain Brian, Captain Ally, Jay (the "Bearded Pirate"), and Captain Finn all get specific shout-outs for their expertise and friendly approach. The crew really shines here—deckhands like Anna, Neveah, and Michael earn repeated praise for keeping lines untangled, helping with catches, and making everyone feel welcome. Guests regularly report limiting out on halibut even late in the season when expectations are lower, plus bonus catches of rockfish, cod, and various salmon species. The fleet includes both larger vessels like the Irish (which can handle 16+ passengers) and smaller boats for more intimate trips. Most reviewers highlight the professionalism from check-in through the safety talk to the actual fishing, with captains willing to share knowledge and answer questions. One negative review mentioned a trip being outsourced to a different provider with timing issues and overcrowding, though they still praised the captain and crew. First-timers and experienced anglers alike seem to have excellent days on the water, making this a solid choice for Homer fishing charters.

    We HIGHLY recommend Northern Country Charters! Our captain, Clay, and deck hand Sean were incredible! So patient and knowledgeable! They gave great advice on fish to keep - all 6 of us on the boat caught our halibut limit along with several rock fish and flounder. The vibes were great, and they made sure we had an amazing time! Lines were always in the water, and they prioritized everyone on the boat to ensure each person got their limit! Amazing!!!!
