Captain Scott was extremely professional and prompt. We were able to board his boat right at the cruise terminal. Within just a few minutes he had us reeling in Salmon. We caught 14 in the first couple hours. He was super helpful and engaging with our two kids (son 8 and daughter 10). They were able to help reel in about half the catch that day! The boat and equipment are all high end pro gear! This is not a knock off charter that you’ll get with the cruise lines where you’re standing in... More

Captain Scott was literally walking for us at the end of the gangplank with a sign. He had his boat parked right next to our cruise ship so that we wasted not time getting out on the water. His boat was very nice. Clean, comfortable, and well stocked. We fished for four hours and unfortunately didn’t catch anything.

If you’re looking for a charter that delivers, look no further than Reel Fishing Charters. Captain Colby is a consummate professional—highly intelligent, strategic, and dialed into exactly what the fish are doing. This was a first-time trip for my wife and son, and Colby kept us on the action all day. We caught a fantastic variety of species, including King Salmon, halibut, and cod.

Captain Colby was excellent at finding the fish.  The level of professionalism and understanding a family dynamic made this trip one of the best ever.  He made sure my kids were involved in all aspects of the experience. The boat and equipment were top notch.  I would highly recommend this trip to anyone thinking of fishing Ketchikan. Thanks for making the day one of the best of our vacation.

Amazing experience. Captain Colby put me on to a nice king salmon! 10/10 would recommend! Captain gave us some Good tunes, Good laughs, good instruction, and was very informative. If you havent been Salmon fishing from a boat before this is the place to go. Captain brought us straight to the fish processor and got every lined up for us so dont stress about that.
