Deckhand Ben Harris

Ben is back! Many of you may remember Ben from the 2015 fishing season.  Ben is a Montana boy that has spent most of his time lobster diving in the Florida Keys.  His specialties include being a seagull whisperer and a standing up to Orcas stealing his salmon.

Saltwater Addiction

The Saltwater Addiction is a 26 ft Offshore Duckworth with an extended transom.  It is a 2011 model powered by twin Yamaha 150 HP outboard engines.  Included is a private marine head, a heated cabin, Wallas diesel stove, and a cuddy cabin with a place to lie down.  We use only the best fishing gear: AVET REELS, EDGE RODS, FINS FISHING LINE and of course KODIAK CUSTOM TACKLE!
