OUR KETCHIKAN FISHING EXCURSIONS INCLUDE:
Salmon Fishing Trip (4-5 hours)
Rate: Starting at $325
Must purchase 4 spots minimum to depart, 6 maximum. This is to ensure it is only you and your party on the charter.
Ketchikan is known as the salmon capital of the world and for good reason… The fishing is phenomenal! All five species of pacific salmon run through Ketchikan while heading toward their spawning grounds. From mid May through the end of September there are salmon to be caught and we have mastered the art of trolling, mooching, and jigging to maximize your odds at the catch of a lifetime.
During this fishing trip, we will target whatever species of salmon is most prevalent at the time of the trip. Here is a helpful guide as to what species to look for depending on the date of your charter.
Late May through July = King Salmon
July through September = Silver Salmon
July through August = Pink Salmon
Chum and Sockeye Salmon are less common but are present and can be welcome additions when they are caught!

Halibut Fishing Trip (4-5 hours)
Rate: Starting at $350
Must purchase 4 spots minimum to depart, 6 maximum. This is to ensure it is only you and your party on the charter.
Halibut fishing runs from early May to late September. During these trips we anchor or drift sand flats, pinnacles, trenches, and other bottom structure in search of the largest flounder in the world. Halibut are ferocious fighters and where they live offers the chance for lots of by-catch. This includes cod, rockfish, lingcod, pollock, sharks, and numerous other flounder species.
