Newport Tradewinds

"We had a fantastic day! Everyone from the office to the captain and first mate made this a special day. They have it perfected at every step. We had our fish cleaned and vacuumed packed for a nominal fee. Then we we unloaded the crabs the process was amazing. The gentleman were really fun and educational to talk with and shared some good stories. We will be back and refer our friends!"

"Went to Newport for a fabulous birthday. Went out on Sea Venture and next day the Sea Pirate. Michelle was absolutely wonderful. Love the crew. We will definitely be back. Thank you for such a wonderful time. David and Michelle Freeman. UPDATE- Went out with Tradewinds again this year Sept 2023 labor day weekend again had a fantastic time. Went out with Capt Waddell on the Misty for 5 hour rock fish and saw my same deck hand from 2 years ago I had a blast catching so much fish. They really kept us on the fish and made sure we had a great time. Next day took the 10 hour salmon and bottom fishing trip with the Sea Pirate 2 with Captain Virginia Farrell and We had a blast again. The deck hand was such a fast netter we didn't lose our salmon. All of the staff and crew in and out of the office are fantastic. If I could rate them more than 5 stars I would!!!! I highly recommend them and can't wait to see you all again. Thank you so much everyone. Michelle and David Freeman."

"I gave three stars because I got back on shore safely . Much like aircraft travel, anytime you return safely to the dock, it was a good trip. The captain warned us that halibut fishing is work, and It was not fun. neither I nor my father in law had any luck after 12 hours. No halibut or even rockfish to show for a fishing tour. The crew was professional and doing everything they could to help my father in law catch something. No luck . Fish is never guaranteed only the chance to catch something. After 5 years and 5 paid fishing trips throughout oregon and washington with no luck catching something, I believe any fish is safe from me in the water. Try it out: I would recommend the enterprise and her crew any day."

"Captain Dave and his deck hands treated us to a great 12 hour halibut outing. Excellent 66 foot Enterprise boat with many railings to throw up over when you get seasick. 8 out of 11 of our group got sick but felt much better after tossing their cookies. Rockfish, lingcod and halibut were caught. Had a shark take a bite out of a rockfish right at the side of the our boat. Great time for sure!"

"Had a great experience with Tradewinds. We did the 5 hour trip. We limited out on the rock fish, caught a couple of ling cod, and had lots of fun. We were on the sea pirate, and the captain and deck hand were both awesome!"
