The Mazie Grace is a proven Alaskan fishing machine. Named after my oldest daughter, the 31' Uniflite is a comfortable stable platform, ideal for fishing the calm or choppy waters of Alaska’s Inside Passage. The twin 385hp main inboard engines coupled with a 25hp autopilot equipped trolling motor provide fast travel and efficient fishing.  The 11ft beam and low deadrise keep the MG stable while on anchor or trolling. 
Its huge fishing deck offers tons of room for landing double, triple and even quad hookups of salmon, halibut and bottom fish.  The comfortable, fully enclosed heated cabin is outfitted with a private stand-up head, commercial grade fishing electronics by Furuno, Garmin and Standard Horizon.

    Best Fishing Experience Ever!

    4 Hour Trip – Salmon - 12:00 PM on July 21, 2026 • 2 adults

    We had the absolute best fishing experience this week with Captain Ty and First Mate Mazie! This trip was just my 12-year-old son and me, and from the moment we stepped on the boat, they made us feel welcome, safe, and excited for the day ahead. Captain Ty and Mazie explained everything we needed to know, making it easy and fun to learn. Captain Ty was especially encouraging while my son was reeling in some big fish, making the experience one he’ll never forget. Their knowledge of the water was incredible—they consistently put us right on top of the fish, and the action never stopped. We caught so many fish and came home with 10 to take with us! If you’re looking for a fun, family-friendly charter with experienced guides who genuinely care about making your trip memorable, I can’t recommend this father-and-daughter duo enough. Thank you, Captain Ty and Mazie, for an unforgettable day on the water!

    Fantastic Experience

    4 Hour Trip – Salmon on July 20, 2026 • 6 adults

    Ty and his first mate daughter: Mazie, were absolutely fantastic captains. After a quick taxi ride from our cruise ship we arrived to the marina where they had the boat ready for our arrival. Quick safety walkthrough and we were under way. Within 20 minutes we were fishing. It was an absolute beautiful day. Didn’t take very long for our first salmon to be on the line. Ty was very patient with our group and helped us navigate the art of landing those salmon in the boat. It was an action packed morning. We were able to keep 7 salmon and ship home. We actually had king salmon tags as well. While we caught 8 more king salmons; unfortunately they weren’t large enough to keep. It was a great morning and took us to the place to get our catch processed and shipped home. Would definitely book with Ty again.

    4 Hour Trip – Salmon - 1:00 PM on July 6, 2026 • 2 adults

    My daughter and I just completed a fantastic day of fishing with Ty and his daughter and first mate Maisie. Ty was a great captain and put us on fish right away. You are literally fishing 5 minutes from the dock. We were hunting salmon straight from the get go. Overall very successful day 9 salmons landed and two keeper Kings on a double hookup! My daughter and I had a wonderful time fishing and have lifelong memories now we we’ll never forget, thanks Ty and Maisie. Would highly recommend Ty as your guide. Thanks Again

    I would fish with Ty again.

    6 Hour Trip – Combo (after 6/18) - 8:00 AM on June 22, 2026 • 6 adults • 3 children

    We went and out and after a short few short minutes we arrived to our fisrt spot to fish. We quickly began catching fish and within a couple of hours limited out on our halibut quota. We then trolled for a couple of hours and even though the bites and retained salmon was few, we were more than aware the captain Ty was doing everthing he could to get us into some fish. Captain Ty was friendly, he knew what he was doing and his daughter was just the same as him. We had six in our group on the boat and everone had a good time.

    Trip of a Lifetime

    4 Hour Trip – Salmon - 9:00 AM on July 19, 2026 • 2 adults

    Ty told us right off that the fishing had been a little slow, but he still put us on a bunch of fish within 20 minutes. We all caught fish and had a great time all 4 hours. Cannot recommend him enough. Boat had a ton of space and very comfortable as well. His daughter was the first mate, and she was also exceptional as well. Very helpful and made the trip even better. Book with this guy, you wont regret it.

    Great Anniversary Present!

    4 Hour Trip – Salmon - 8:00 AM on May 21, 2026 • 2 adults

    We had a great time! Ty was a great host and the hubby caught some fish. He was quick to point out wildlife (eagles, seals, and whales) so we didn't miss them. I don't fish, so I was there to just take pictures, but had fun visiting and watching the action. Super nice guy with a wonderful sense of humor, and did a great job making sure the lures were at the right depth for the fish to bite. Thank you, Ty, for the awesome time!!

    Awesome trip with Ty

    6 Hour Trip – Combo (after 6/18) - 12:00 PM on June 20, 2026 • 2 adults

    My son and I wanted to go fishing in Ketchikan and I found Ty and his boat online. We took a trip for around 6 hours. It was just the 2 of us and we had a fun and amazing trip. Ty sends very clear instructions and works hard to make sure you are taken care of and have a good trip. I would highly recommend him if you want a great trip from a local guide while here. Thanks again for everything!

    Amazing experience with Ty and Mazie

    Highly recommend the captain Ty and his guidance!!! From booking and communication, wirh attention to small details, to the very day of the fishing, with high expertise, Ty and his daughter Mazie made our experience 10+. we were cruising and booked outside the cruise excursions ( highly recommend). For 3 of us we got 3 king salmons and shipped it back home. Absolutely highly recommended!!!

    Great Day Fishing!

    4 Hour Trip – Salmon - 9:00 AM on August 9, 2026 • 6 adults

    We had a great morning fishing with Captain Ty and his daughter. They worked hard to get us on fish and were running all over the boat once we found them and were catching them like crazy! We weren’t familiar with the tricks of salmon fishing, so a little more guidance would have been nice at first, but we figured it out and almost all of us ended up with our limit! We all had a lot of fun and would definitely recommend this charter!

    Ty was a great captain. Despite the fish not biting much he messaged with other captains and took us to different spots to ensure we caught enough to send home!!

    We had a great morning fishing with Captain Ty and his daughter. They worked hard to get us on fish and were running all over the boat once we found them and were catching them like crazy! We weren’t familiar with the tricks of salmon fishing, so a little more guidance would have been nice at first, but we figured it out and almost all of us ended up with our limit! We all had a lot of fun and would definitely recommend this charter!

    Ty was great! Super responsive and helpful both before and after trip. We caught more fish than we ever imagined. Will definitely use him again when we return.

    We had a great morning. Caught pink, coho, and king salmon. Ty had us fishing immediately after we boarded the boat. Would recommend this charter to anyone looking to fish in Ketchikan.

    We had the absolute best fishing experience this week with Captain Ty and First Mate Mazie! This trip was just my 12-year-old son and me, and from the moment we stepped on the boat, they made us feel welcome, safe, and excited for the day ahead. Captain Ty and Mazie explained everything we needed to know, making it easy and fun to learn. Captain Ty was especially encouraging while my son was reeling in some big fish, making the experience one he’ll never forget. Their knowledge of the water was incredible—they consistently put us right on top of the fish, and the action never stopped. We caught so many fish and came home with 10 to take with us! If you’re looking for a fun, family-friendly charter with experienced guides who genuinely care about making your trip memorable, I can’t recommend this father-and-daughter duo enough. Thank you, Captain Ty and Mazie, for an unforgettable day on the water!

    Ty and his first mate daughter: Mazie, were absolutely fantastic captains. After a quick taxi ride from our cruise ship we arrived to the marina where they had the boat ready for our arrival. Quick safety walkthrough and we were under way. Within 20 minutes we were fishing. It was an absolute beautiful day. Didn’t take very long for our first salmon to be on the line. Ty was very patient with our group and helped us navigate the art of landing those salmon in the boat. It was an action packed morning. We were able to keep 7 salmon and ship home. We actually had king salmon tags as well. While we caught 8 more king salmons; unfortunately they weren’t large enough to keep. It was a great morning and took us to the place to get our catch processed and shipped home. Would definitely book with Ty again.

    Ty told us right off that the fishing had been a little slow, but he still put us on a bunch of fish within 20 minutes. We all caught fish and had a great time all 4 hours. Cannot recommend him enough. Boat had a ton of space and very comfortable as well. His daughter was the first mate, and she was also exceptional as well. Very helpful and made the trip even better. Book with this guy, you wont regret it.

    Even though the salmon were not running hot, Captain Ty put us on fish and we caught some keepers. Captain Ty and his first mate Maizie did a great job and I would highly recommend a trip with them!
