Captain Asher was amazing!
Ketchikan Salmon Fishing Tour- AM on June 28, 2024
Myself and my two sons (16 & 14) had an outstanding time! Concerned about time, and for a small fee, Asher picked us up from the cruise ship. We caught several salmon and we were able to keep a king salmon and pink salmon. Asher did a great job building a relationship with us and was very personable. Thank you Asher, for making my son's experience the best part of their trip! Jeff amazing time. We were concerned about time and, for a small fee, Asher picked us up from the cruise ship

Capt Colby put on the salmon soon after leaving the cruise ship. Great experience and beautiful country. Colby is a spot on captain and a great ambassador for Alaska fishing for anyone that fishes with him.

The Angler's Choice Award is given to listings that consistently deliver a high-quality service and earn great reviews from customers.
The captain grew up fishing in Alaska and NW Washington as a young man chasing Salmon in both the ocean and local rivers. Moving down the coast, he's fished Oregon for 6 years, then started actively freedive spearfishing and moved down to California and the Channel Islands. Before long, the captain found himself spending several years in Louisiana, getting spoiled with their amazing fishery. Then he headed to South Florida, fishing the Lower Keys and Key West for 5 years as a captain and crew. After bouncing back and forth with the seasons, Reel Alaska Fishing Charters has been back year-round in Ketchikan, Alaska since 2018. Now both local businesses and landowners, the crew has fallen in love with this amazing community and plans to spend the rest of their lives here.
