Halibut Fishing
Is Homer or Sewared better for halibut fishing? I have fished for Halibut from Homer and it was great. You no more than got your pole in the water and would catch one. Didn't know if Seward was just as good.

I've had luck out of both ports, but prefer Seward because the scenery is better, there's more of a chance to see wildlife, including whales, and the variety of fish you catch out of Seward is usually better -- i.e., ling and rockfish (called snapper in AK).
Plus, there's more of a chance of doing a halibut/salmon combo there.

If you are going to Seward, contact the Fish House (907-224-3674) for charter reservations. They have a good reputation locally.
If you might possibly be interested in salmon, rather than halibut, the silvers are coming into Resurection Bay right now and fishing is hot.
I advise AGAINST going to Millers Landing. Had a terrible experience there this last Saturday
