Great fishing in Ketchikan
Half Day Trip – Salmon (AM) on August 6, 2025 • 2 adults
Scott was easy to strange with leading up to our arrival in Ketchikan. Friendly professional and an excellent captain. He it is on the fish quickly and we had a great morning fishing!! The only regret is that we only had a half day trip instead of a whole day as of our own time restraints. Next time I am here will charter Scott for a full day. My wife and I had a great day thanks to Scott!!! Cannot say enough good things about him!

The perfect 4-hour fishing trip!
Half Day Trip – Halibut (AM) on July 3, 2025 • 6 adults
We had an incredible time fishing. The captain was excellent and put us onto some great fish and was very knowledgeable about the area and the different fish we caught. He gave us options to see whales if we wanted as we went out which was a nice touch. The captain was hustling the entire time to make sure we were fishing at all times and moved us around to keep the bite coming in. We brought the whole family and caught a bunch of fish in just 4 hours.
Highly would recommend this if you are on a cruise ship because he picks you up right at the dock. Couldn’t be any easier to find the boat and get to business! We will 100% be back.

Amazing halibut trip!
Half Day Trip – Halibut (AM) on June 27, 2025 • 4 adults
We were doing an Alaskan cruise ship on the encore and wanted to go Halibut fishing. Captain Scott was AMAZING in his hospitality, instructions on how to fish, as well as how efficient everything was.
He provided snacks and drinks for us, made sure we got out to the fishing spot quickly so we would have more time to fish, and also explained everything perfectly from how to fish as well as cool little facts and some history about Alaska’s fisheries. The boat was also extremely clean and looked nice and fancy haha.
We also landed a giant 37in halibut and Captain Scott also took us to see some Harbor Seals and Bald Eagles at the end of our trip! 10/10 would recommend to anybody wanting to go halibut or salmon fishing in Ketchikan!!!

The captain picked us up right at the cruise ship and communicated with me that morning to ensure an easy meeting place. We trolled for pink salmon and caught several. The boat was nice and clean with plenty of snacks and drinks on board. He also brought us some smoked salmon to munch on, which was delicious! We took the fish to be cleaned, packed, and shipped home. Great day fishing! Could not have been better!
