About this trip

M/V Ghost | Alaska Fishing Charters

Homer, Alaska | Up to 6 Guests | Private Alaska Fishing

Get on the water aboard the M/V Ghost, Swoboda Charters’ 28-foot charter boat built to move quickly, fish hard, and make the most of your time in Homer.

The Ghost is a great option for families, small groups, and anglers looking for a straightforward Alaska fishing experience with Captain Scott Swoboda and the Swoboda Charters crew. Its size and speed make it easy to cover water while still providing plenty of cockpit space for anglers to fish comfortably.

Trips are customized around your group, weather, current regulations, and the species available during your dates.

Target Species

Depending on season and regulations, trips may target:

  • Halibut
  • King, Silver & Pink Salmon
  • Lingcod
  • Rockfish
  • Other available Alaska species

The M/V Ghost

Built for efficient fishing out of Homer:

  • 28-foot charter vessel
  • Up to 6 guests
  • Open fishing cockpit
  • Enclosed cabin
  • Fast access to productive fishing grounds
  • Plenty of fishing room for families and small groups

The Ghost is all about maximizing your day—less unnecessary downtime and more opportunity to put lines in the water.

Available Trip Options

8-Hour Fishing Charter

Spend a full day fishing Alaska’s waters, with halibut typically the primary target and opportunities for salmon, rockfish, and other species when time and regulations allow.

10-Hour Fishing Charter

Two additional hours give the captain more flexibility to cover water, explore additional fishing grounds, and potentially pursue multiple species.

Custom & Extended Trips

Looking for something beyond the standard day charter? Talk with the Swoboda Charters team about available extended-trip options and how the Ghost can be incorporated into your Alaska adventure.

What's Included

Day fishing charters include:

  • Fishing gear
  • Bait
  • Fish filleting
  • Cooler space for food and drinks

Guests are responsible for their Alaska fishing license, food, drinks, fish processing or vacuum sealing beyond what is specifically included, and other personal expenses.

One Private Alaska Experience.

Swoboda Charters operates the M/V Ghost and M/V Allen Ray under a shared charter permit. Because of this, only one vessel operates a charter at a time. Booking the Ghost reserves Swoboda Charters’ operating availability for your scheduled trip.

Whether you’re chasing your first Alaska halibut or coming back to fill the freezer again, the Ghost provides a simple, comfortable way to experience fishing out of Homer.
