Juneau Charters – Solstice 

We were unable to find a boat that could accomodate our group of 5 at such late notice and this became available. Our family of 5 had the trip of a lifetime as Cliff drove us far out to sea to the perfect spot, while Randy handled the fishing and showing us how to succeed. We caught 4 pink salmon and it was thrilling to watch our children have such a memory. We love Alaska and can’t wait to return someday. When we do, we are booking here again. We also saw humpback whales, bald eagles, sea lions, and the most beautiful vistas one can behold with majestic mountains layering one another as far as the eye can see. Our guides also went above and beyond and helped us get connected with a place on the dock that quickly prepped our fish as our carry on the plane instead of the cost of shipping it.

We had a fantastic charter out of Juneau today! The weather was typical Southeast Alaska—off and on wet—but it never turned into a full downpour, and the boat handled the mildly choppy waters incredibly smoothly. Along the way, we were treated to some amazing wildlife sightings, including Bald Eagles, Dall’s Porpoises, and even a whale spout. What really set this trip apart, though, was the crew. Honestly, this was one of the best charter crews I have ever fished with. Deckhand Ibra was incredibly personable, patient, and helpful from start to finish. He kept everyone taken care of and made the day run seamlessly. Captain Ben was top-tier. He has a great personality, a quick sense of humor, and kept everyone’s spirits high and encouraging even when the bites slowed down. What I appreciated most was his initiative to teach us a bit while we fished—he explained how and why the downriggers worked, shared insights on current local fish management strategies, and taught us about the different species. When we did hook into something, his enthusiasm was contagious. As for the catch, our boat of five landed four halibut, one chum salmon, and one very large king salmon. While we had hoped for a few more bites, some days are just like that, and the crew did everything they could to put us on the fish. Overall, it was a thoroughly pleasant experience, and I would highly recommend booking a trip with Captain Ben and Ibra. We’d absolutely fish with them again!

After booking the charter I got a hold of the charter company through the App and they were helpful. We got picked up right by the cruise ship. Captain Tim and Sam helped us out and they took us to Captain Tim's favorite spot. We put the lines in the water and was helped by Sam to learn how to Halibut fish. Within the first hour of fishing we had limited out on Halibut and one person even caught a Cod fish. Tried some Salmon fishing and they weren't biting and came back to the dock. Great experience even though we didn't get any salmon.

We booked two boats for our family, with four being the total for each boat. When we got there, another two people were added to one boat making six and too many for being able to actually catch anything. It was not right, but nothing we could do about it at the time. We had a good time, but was misrepresented.

Cameron and Austin were GREAT guys very knowledgeable and fun to be around. Had 5 people on the boat who were also fun to be around. Caught halibut,cod,and rock fish weather was also great even saw whales and dolls porpoises. Overall it was a great experience would highly recommend.
