Come experience the best in Ketchikan Fishing Charters! Ketchikan Sport Fishing LLC is here to make it happen! Your guide for the day is Captain Trent, bringing aboard over 18 years of guiding experience.  Know your guide! Trent will be your contact, captain and guide. No guessing who you will fish with!  Captain Trent has over 15 years of Charter fishing and guiding experience in Alaska and is always one of the top-producing boats in town! 

Chinook Salmon, Coho Salmon, Pink Salmon, Lingcod, Halibut, Rockfish, Black Rockfish, and more could be biting, depending on the season and length of trip booked.

If you’re traveling with the family, you will be glad to know that kids are welcome aboard! Children must wear life vests, so find out if the appropriate size is available on board. Snacks are never a bad idea – luckily, Capt. Trent will have some on board!

Your boat for the day is a 32’ Parker extended cabin with a capacity for 6 passengers. It has downriggers, top-of-the-line tackle, a comfortable cabin, a smooth ride and everything else you need for a productive day on the water. There’s a toilet on board for your convenience. What’s more, this vessel is wheelchair accessible.

You’ll find rods, reels, and tackle waiting for you, along with lures and all bait.

You might need to get a local fishing license before the trip. This information is usually available online, or you can ask the captain. Some species might be protected or require a tag to keep them, so make sure you know what to expect.

Don’t leave home without sunglasses and sunblock (non-spray). Drinks will be available for you. Alcohol is allowed in moderation, but try to avoid hard liquor as well as glass bottles. There will be some light snacks included on board.

And that’s it! Your fishing trip with Ketchikan Sport Fishing is just a click away.

6 Hour Trip – Combo (AM)

Great Fishing Day!

VERIFIED

Booked with Captain Trent outside of the options available to us on our cruise. Captain Trent made sure we knew where to meet him in the morning, a short 8 min walk from our cruise ship. He then dropped us 2 minutes away from our cruise ship after the trip. Our group was excited for the numerous fish we caught, and the multiple fish species we encountered on this trip. Captain Trent was also very patient with our two kiddos and put them on a bunch of fish. Such an awesome day, weather was great, fishing was great, our group really enjoyed our time. Mahalo Captain Trent!

4 Hour Trip – Salmon (AM)

Great Day, caught limit on some nice halibut

VERIFIED

Folks, this was my 2nd trip fishing in Alaska, Capt Trent, his boat and equipment are first class. He was very easy to communicate with. I found everything was “AS ADVERTISED” He met my group at the pier and we were fishing within 45 minutes of arriving. Captain was a very knowledgeable and personable. He gave great advice and assistance. I had 2 new to deep water fishing and he had us on fish early, Really enjoyed the fishing banter and making a new “fisher friend” I HIGHLY recommend CAPT TRENT to anyone fishing in Alaska or Hawaii during the winter! Capt, kudos from the “Old Retired Soldier”, the Marine and the kid. WE WILL FISH AGAIN THANKS FOR EVERYTHING. AWESOME JOB

Our favorite excursion in Alaska!

VERIFIED

Captain Trent was amazing! From the first question I had even before booking to the moment we stepped of his boat, the whole experience was wonderful. He quickly and thoroughly answered all questions before we booked. He communicated everything we needed to know and had us ready for a great day of fishing. His boat and equipment were in pristine condition and easy to use. We had a great day on the water and his insight and knowledge helped us have a great day of fishing. He took care of the process to have our catch shipped home and we're looking forward to enjoying it post vacation. I'd highly recommend Capt. Trent and Ketchikan Sport Fishing Charters.
