    Caught Our Limit

    4 Hour Trip – Salmon Fishing4 adults

    Our family had a great time fishing with Joe. He kept us up to date on all trip details up to the point we arrived. Great boat, great equipment, and most of all great knowledge of where to catch the fish. We caught our limit of halibut and the let several more try again. We had a few other surprises like a nice Pacific cod, spiny rockfish and a spiny dogfish. On the way back we caught and released a small king salmon (jack). Joe showed us a great time, shared his knowledge, and was very patient.

    Awesome experience

    Joe was outstanding. We caught our limit of halibut, and a number of cod. He was knowledgeable and patient. His boat was comfortable but not fancy. Would definitely recommend him

What's biting with Go Fish Charters Ketchikan in Ketchikan

September is one of the best months for Silver Salmon in Ketchikan, and there are still plenty of Kings around, too. It's also the tail end of Halibut high season, making it a great time to visit.
