What customers say

★★★★★ 5/5

What a great charter ... Captain Dan greeted us just off the Cruise Ship... His boat was a very short walk on the same pier! Spotlessly clean with 2 pots of coffee waiting for us after a few fishing license being bought we were off... He had us on fish almost immediately and it wasn't long we had fish on the boat! It was a fun filled morning with awesome scenery!!! They combine small groups and singles which is great for me.. Thank again Captain Dan. PS: Just had some smoked salmon off of my pellet grill INCREDIBLE 😋

Good Fishing! Jul 2016 • Friends Fishing was excelent, and our captain knew his stuff! We fished our limit of Pink Salmon in an hour! I just think that for a $180.00 you could get a soda or cofee or a beer on board and a little more insight into Ketchikan Fishing.

Great charter service. It was cold and breezy in the morning and was thankful for the heated cabin and hot coffee. Had a great time fighting some big king salmon, highly recommend booking with them.
