Saltwater Weather and Targeted Species
On the Saltwater your average temperatures may vary from 45 to 75 degrees.
 Precipitation is always possible during your stay on the island regardless of
the time of year. Rainfall averages 90 inches per year. Good rain gear, warm
clothing, and waterproof boots are recommended.  When you book one of our
Saltwater fishing trips you get the boat exclusively for your group and do not
have to fish with people you don't know.  That way you can decide what you
want to fish for and how you would like to fish.  The Inside Passage is a
beautiful ares so don't forget a camera.  While you are out on the water you
may see Whales, Orcas, Seals, and Sea Lions.
