Edible Souvenirs
4 Hour Trip – Salmon Fishing - 9:00 AM on June 13, 20264 adults

As our friend Vicki would say, we were in Ketchikan for “edible souvenirs “. Our captain, Andrew, delivered. He greeted us warmly and asked what was our goal for the trip. He took us out to a beautiful spot where we saw a humpback whale as he prepped the fishing gear. Within minutes we caught two cod on the first line, ending up with 6 cod total. We also caught 6 halibut in the same spot, but could only keep 4. The king salmon weren’t biting, but the amazing scenery and beautiful day made up for no salmon. We highly recommend Ketchikan’s Finest Fishing Charter and Capt. Andrew for “edible souvenirs”.

Perfect Day in Alaska!
Salmon Fishing - 4HR (AM) - 8:00 AM on May 29, 20264 adults

We had an amazing trip! The weather was perfect and the water was like glass! We came in on a cruise ship. The Captain picked us up at the Berth and returned us in plenty of time to get back on the ship. Captain Lukas has a beautiful boat and he was pleasant and full of energy! Within two minutes of getting our lines in the water, we had a halibut on the line! We landed our limit of halibut and also caught cod, a dog shark and a ghost shark! If you're in Ketchikan, Captain Lukas is an amazing guide! Thanks for the memories!

Highlight of Alaskan trip
4 Hour Trip – Salmon Fishing (3PM) on June 11, 20264 adults

Myself, 2 children and older parents had an amazing time with Capt Andrew. He exceeded our expectations in his knowledge, patience and friendliness. My mom worried about motion sickness and had zero problems. Capt Andrew shared our enthusiasm for catching a 22lb King Salmon, halibut and cod!! ❤️❤️ I highly recommend Ketchikan’s Finest

What a great trip!
4 Hour Trip – Salmon Fishing on July 18, 20253 adults

Captain Lukas was awesome for our salmon fishing trip! He was very personable, explained a lot to us about the area and his experience, the wildlife, types of fish we caught, etc. He was so understanding and accommodating to make sure we found him easily once we got to where we were meeting, and making sure we got back to our ship on time. We would highly recommend this group of captains to anyone looking to fish during their time in Ketchikan.
