Big Jim’s Charters
Big Jim's Charters has been a local favorite for over 30 years in Juneau, Alaska, as these guys go the extra mile for everyone. They know the hot spots for Salmon and Halibut, and will work hard to provide a successful trip and an exciting experience. They operate from May 1 to Sept 15.
Our crew and Captains are experianced fishermen. Their job is to help you, teach you and get you on the fish.
You will fish aboard a like new 30 foot Offshore 2017 Duckworth with 2023 twin 300 hp Mecury's that get you to the fishing grounds fast, cruise at 30 plus knots. The boat has a private head, all the safety equipment, as well as a radar, chart plotters, Sonar fish finder, electric downriggers.
Capt. Mike can pick you up at the Fisherman's Bend Marina where you'll start your nearshore and offshore adventure. When you fish for Salmon, you will slow troll, one rod per angler. And when fishing for Halibut, you will drift and jig off the bottom, also using one rod per angler. This way, everyone will get to fish and have a chance of catching a nice dinner.
Once you return to the dock, your fish will be cleaned and filleted for dinner, and the rest can be beheaded and gutted. Capt. Mike will recommend a processing plant that can store your fish until you are ready to have it sent to your home address.
All charters include sightseeing and whale watching while fishing, all bait, and top-of-the-line rods and reels. We can arrage Pickup from cruise ship and return about $50.00 each way for up to 10 people, you will need to pay the cab.

Didn’t catch any fish, but it is a little before the season. However, we saw a Humpback Whale and several Orcas. We got pretty close and got some great videos. Also got to see some eagles feeding, which was fun. Captain Terry and Dillon were great. Very personable and interesting to talk to. We had a great time.
thank you for the great review, its early fir fishing but not for great views of the Glaciers, Killer Whakes and Humpbsck Whale top it off with a Eagle show great job Captain Terry and Deckhsnd Dillon
✅️ 2nd day of King season!! Captain John and Dylan were really great!! Dylan worked non-stop!! Captain John was fun, informative and as excited as we were when my husband caught his nice King Salmon. We will definitely book with Big Jim's the next time we're in this area!!!

captain ajohn and Dylan did an amzing job. see you all in mid july for salmon fishing
thank you for the great review John and Dillon are a great team we will see you in July thank you
The Halibut fishing was the most fun and exciting. The Salmon fishing was a bust, but it was a little too early in the season to expect much from that. Captain Mike and Landon were great. Feeding the eagles was a nice bonus to end the trip on.
Thank you for chatering with Big Jim’s Charters on f/v Petrel, Captain Mike and crew, it was great catching Halibut, we had to travel almost 100 miles round trip but worth it, no fuel surcharge just bite the bullet and provide the best service we can
Captain John and First Mate Dillion were awesome! nice fish. very helpful in getting our fish ready to ship back through Jerry’s Meat. Couldn’t have done it without them.
thank you so much for the besutiful review ill make that Captain John and Deck hand Dillion see your review
