The Emerald Island Mothership operation is associated with Highliner Lodge and Charters Inc., based out of Pelican, Alaska. Due to new USCG requirements, we are uncertain as to whether this operation will be restored before the 2020 fishing season. Since the Coast Guard has “moved the goalposts” on us, we are also currently searching for licensed 200-ton captains to run the vessel. If you are interested in staying on the Emerald Island during your 2020 fishing trip to the Highliner Lodge, please contact us so that we may tentatively schedule you to stay on the boat. We will reserve lodging for your trip on land at the Highliner Lodge in Pelican but transfer your booking back to the Emerald Island if it becomes available during your trip dates.
