Ketchikan Alaska Fishing
Ketchikan Alaska Fishing
Capt. Jeremiah Brooks (USCG Captain), specializes in fishing the waters around Ketchikan, Alaska and invites you along for a trip to remember.
The stunning scenery here in Ketchikan will not soon be forgotten.
Your guide Capt. Jeremiah specializes in heavy tackle fishing and/or trolling with downriggers, which is what you'll be doing on the day of your trip. Jeremiah will provide rods and reels, lures and bait.
Our local waters around Ketchikan AK are known for Halibut, Salmon (Chinook, Chum, Coho & Pink Salmon), Lingcod, and more – with any luck, you'll hook into a few!
Fish that are legal to harvest are yours to keep, have processed and (at the client's expense) shipped to your doorstep. Jeremiah will guide you through the local waters aboard a 32' heated cuddy cabin that holds up to 6 passengers with a private flushable restroom.
Everyone in your group should buy a local fishing license ahead of time. You can find out more online. Please be sure to dress in layers and suitable footwear (if you aren't sure what that means, just ask). It's never a bad idea to bring bottled water, sunscreen, and sunglasses, no matter the weather.
Jeremiah will have bottled water for you. If you wish to bring your own or have a special request, please ask. Ready to spend time with the whole family and unplug? Then you'll be glad to know that kids are more than welcome. Capt. Jeremiah has child-sized life vests you can borrow, or bring your own.
Fishing with OSO Alaska is just a click away.

Lucas Reid5.0VerifiedGreat Captain!
4 Hour Trip – Salmon on July 12, 2026 • 2 adultsJeremiah was fantastic! My daughter (17) & I did a 4 hour Salmon fish, where she caught a huge King and I caught a big Silver. We also caught several other small fish that we let go. Jeremiah picked us up right at our cruise ship and dropped us off right back in the same spot. He was early and ready to go which made our trip seamless. He was an unbelievable coach to my daughter as she was pulling in her big King and was very kind, thoughtful and informative throughout our entire charter. When we decide to go on a proper fishing trip soon, he’ll be my first call witbout a doubt!
Diane Fuller5.0VerifiedBest 80th Birthday Ever!
6 Hour Trip – Salmon (copy) on July 8, 2026 • 2 adultsMy hubby & I came up to Alaska to be salmon fishing for my 80th BD. That's what I wanted to do to celebrate. Jeremiah & his son Liam were great. Helped us when we asked for help reeling in our fish, & were always courteous & professional. We caught 1 silver & 2 king salmon that we kept. Several were too small & we had to let them go. Our kings measured 36 inches & over 31 inches! Jeremiah even told us the locals have trouble catching fish like we did. I felt very lucky! He's also processing our catch & FedExing it too us once we get home so we're going to eat our fresh catch for awhile. I'd book with him in a heartbeat again. I know you won't be disappointed. Hope you're a lucky catching kings a we were!
Tammy Sheppard5.0Best experience ever!!
4 Hour Trip – Salmon on August 8, 2026As someone with severe lung disease who requires continuous oxygen, this kind of trip would seem impossible. However, Capt Jeremiah and First Mate Liam made this trip amazing. Jeremiah worked with me from the beginning making sure what ever I needed to keep my oxygen available while being able to move around and enjoy the full experience. I was able to catch my first salmon ever and my limit in Halibut along with a few nice Cod. Thank you Capt Jeremiah and First Mate Liam!
Kathy EssertRepeat angler5.0VerifiedGreat day on the water!
4 Hour Trip – Salmon on June 11, 2026 • 2 adultsJeremiah's communication was excellent from the moment we booked. He picked us up and dropped us off just steps from our cruise ship. The best part was he had us contribute to the experience. He didn't just put the line in the water and have us reel when a fish was on. The weather wasn't great but we did catch 4 salmon. Jeremiah even kept us out an extra hour to get us on more fish! From start to finish this was a great experience. Thanks Jeremiah!
Hollie Kowalski5.0VerifiedBest trip ever!
6 Hour Trip – Salmon (copy) on July 7, 2026 • 2 adultsWe both caught our halibut limit and 1 keeper salmon. We caught an amazing halibut that was a non keeper because of size. It was a great time! Captain Jeremiah and his crew were knowledgeable, helpful, kind, and personable. While out fishing he spotted several whales and made sure to point them out to us. He also offered processing services. Great service and great trip! Will book again!
Keith Sorrell5.0VerifiedFantastic trip!!!
6 Hour Trip – Salmon (copy) on August 4, 2026 • 2 adultsWe fished for salmon. Left the dock around 7:00 am. Each of us had our six fish limit by 10:30. The captain worked very hard to put us on fish amd to use the right bait. The boat was well equipped and clean. I can’t wait to go fishing with this crew again. Captain Brooks was a joy to be with. Very, very satisfied.
Amy Ward5.0VerifiedHighlight of our cruise
4 Hour Trip – Salmon on August 6, 2026 • 4 adults • 2 childrenThis charter was the best part of our AK cruise. We had a smooth meetup and no rain. Jeremiah was great with our kids and engaged them at every opportunity. He was also patient with our lack of experience. Can’t wait to dig into our catch back home.
Julian Reyes5.0VerifiedAwesome fishing experience in Ketchikan
