Sonjya LukeRepeat angler5.0VerifiedAnother great trip with Alaska Catch!
5 Hour Trip – Salmon and/or Halibut on August 11, 2026 • 6 adultsThis was our second time with Alaska Catch and again didn’t disappoint! Our group of 6 (4 fishing vetrans & 2 new fishermen) had great luck on a 5 hour salmon trip. We landed 4 silver and 21 pink and had over a dozen “shakers” (juvenile king that went back).
Sharon Warnock5.0VerifiedSO MUCH FUN!!
4 Hour Trip – Salmon (AM) on August 6, 2026 • 4 adultsWe had such a blast! Kiley was so fun, enthusiastic, and really helped us have a great experience!
Jeffrey Yamamichi5.0VerifiedExperience of a lifetime
4 Hour Trip – Salmon (PM) on August 17, 2024 • 4 adults • 2 childrenI told Captain Ryan that catching a king salmon was on my all-time bucket list. He did tell me that they were not in season, but would take us trolling where kings frequent. Not only did we catch a few kings, we were fortunate enough to catch a keeper that was 30 inches. We also caught over 10 pinks and released many more that were undersized. I highly recommend The Alaska Catch. Captain Ryan was very attentive and made sure my family didn't go empty-handed. Of our 7 day cruise, the salmon fishing excursion was the most memorable. If we ever come back to Ketchikan, I will definitely book The Alaska Catch again.
Clifton StaplesRepeat angler5.0VerifiedThe Alaska Catch is a 10/10 for us!
4 Hour Trip – Salmon (AM) on August 15, 2025 • 2 adultsCapt Mike gave us all the info we needed to get our licenses and be ready to hit the waters. Capt. Chris was amazing. He went the extra mile to find the fish. We caught a few but they apparently just weren't hungry. We fished in 5 different locations in the waters around Ketchikan. Highly recommend giving the guys a call to book your next trip in that area!!!
Montse Pons5.0VerifiedGreat fishing day !!
4 Hour Trip – Salmon (AM) on July 21, 2024 • 4 adultsIt was our first time fishing and Mike, our captain, made it an unforgetable experience !! We catched a big silver salmon and some other smallers that we returned to the sea When we met, Mike told us that our boat had a mechanical problem and we couldn't do the excursion, but he managed to solve the problem. Mike is the best fishing guide in Alaska. And before we went back to the harbor he took us to see eagles. If you go to Ketchikan don't miss this experience
Jesse Beaudette5.0VerifiedThe Best Catch!!!!
8 Hour Trip – Salmon/Halibut Combo on July 10, 2024 • 4 adults • 1 childChris was a great! He brought us to Halibut and Salmon. Chris helped us with everything on the boat including pictures. Chris was very helpful with helping the kiddos and not so seasoned adults reel up our fish and set up the tackle. Chris brought snacks the kiddos loved water and a tasty salmon dip for the adults. I would highly recommend The Alaska Catch and would schedule another trip with them in a heartbeat. I think the pictures speak for themselves.
Aaron Welling5.0VerifiedHalf day trip with The Alaska Catch
4 Hour Trip – Salmon (PM) on June 26, 2023 • 3 adultsWe couldn’t have been happier with our trip and fishing for salmon in Ketchikan. Captain Teddy picked us up from our cruise ship and we walked to the boat to go fishing. Captain Teddy knew right where the fish were and how to catch it hen. We had two in the boat in less than 10 minutes! After under three hours of fishing we had 14 fish in the boat with 11 pinks, one chum, one silver and a huge 30 lb king. The day couldn’t have been any better. We loved our time and would use Alaska Catch and Captain Teddy without hesitation. Thanks for the amazing experience!
John Jacobi5.0VerifiedSqueezed us in & put us on the fish.
Trip for John on June 26, 2025 • 2 adults2 hour fill in trip before our ship left. Went 1/1 on silver. Great captain, boat, and communication. Will come back and book more!

5 Hour Trip – Salmon and/or Halibut on August 29, 2024 • 4 adultsIan picked us up right at the dock. No wasted time. He put us on fish early and often. We had a lot of fun fishing and harassing each other. We also had beautiful views of Alaska you just don’t see from land. I would definitely recommend Ian for a good time! Lol

Great day of fishing.
5 Hour Trip – Salmon and/or Halibut on August 8, 2024 • 4 adultsChris put us on fish first thing in the morning. We limited out on halibut in the first 30 minutes while also catching cod. Trolled for salmon after limiting out on halibut and caught quite a few. Highly recommend The Alaska Catch!

A fun day day of combo fishing. We caught almost every species we went out looking for.
