Tradewinds charter in Newport OR

Thu Jul 13, 2017 7:04 pm

I've never been on a fishing charter but I was quite impressed with these guys. I know guys that have gone on charters and not caught fish or not caught limits. Yesterday I caught my limit with 2 hours left to be on the boat, everyone caught their limit. We threw crab pots and had tons of crabs we had to chuck 63 good ones over because we had all of our limits. The 2 guys running the boat were awesome. It was much cheaper than Westport too, it was only 80 bucks and the crab add on was another 10, Westport wanted 140 and no crab add on. All in all I got 2 ling cod, 6 rock fish, 1 cabezon and 12 crabs. It was awesome and I can't wait to go again, the wife is really excited about going too.

I just looked at both websites and they are totally different styles, the websites arnt named like each other and are run by different hosting sites.

Glad to hear you knocked 'em dead! Sounds like a great day.

I've been on a fishing charter recently that was a total bust. And when I say total bust, I mean $175 per head and not even a single bite in 8 hours. I'll keep these guys in mind the next time I'm looking to go out.

We went went on a charter in Westport two years ago.
I think it was about $175 a head with no crab.
I caught 2 King and 5 silvers but had to throw back 4 silvers (no clipped fin).
Sucked because they were my biggest ones.
Too many people on the boat.
