Book your seat on a public cruise or charter a vessel yourselves by booking a private tour option — fish for salmon or halibut aboard one of our fishing boats.
Explore all your options!
The best way to see any destination you visit is through the eyes of the people who live there. Get off the typical tourist path, and let us show you Ketchikan!
Have you ever dreamed of fishing in protected, unspoiled waters? Ketchikan, known as the “Salmon Capital of the World,” offers some of the best salmon and halibut fishing in Alaska. It doesn’t matter if you’re an amateur or an expert angler – with a rod and reel in your hands, our highly skilled captains help you make that big catch just like the locals do!
Then, we help you arrange processing and shipping so that you can have your “bragging rights” shipped right to your home. Also, unlike many other Ketchikan charter companies, we can book single guests on our four-hour salmon charters and large groups of up to 60 people on multiple vessels six soles/guests to a boat.
If you’d preferably explore Ketchikan on a boat without a line in the water, our sightseeing tours show you a different side of our island. Ride through the Tongass Narrows, while eagles and floatplanes fly overhead, commercial fishing boats drive by, and totem poles stand guard on our shores.
Your captain lets you in on some Ketchikan history, culture, and local fishing tales. Also, on any given day, there is always the possibility of seeing black bears on the island and whales, seals, sea lions, or porpoises in the water.
You’ll soon discover that Ketchikan is a beautiful Alaskan gem. Let us help you turn your Alaskan dreams into reality.
We caught eight salmon with Captain Dan. He was helpful because some of us have never been fishing before. If you are in Ketchikan, it is something that you must do.
– Steve K, TripAdvisorDanny was very accommodative and got our fish to a processor who did exactly we as asked. My king arrived home just as promised. Danny is a great guy, trustworthy, and works hard to make it happen for his clients.
– talltimbersde, TripAdvisorWent with Danny as our captain, he was ready for us as we got off the cruise boat, and we were fishing very quick there was five of us fishing, and we had our goal of salmon in less than 4 hours. The limit was six apiece and had them to the processing place and back to the cruise boat in four hours.
