Apex experience in fishing with Captain Mike and his company, The Alaska Catch. My son requested his 10th birthday gift of fishing in Alaska. Our 2021 dismal efforts we had deep sea fishing in California and Florida and regular fishing in Montana and Idaho leading up to Captain Mike made me pause for the commitment. Captain Mike single handedly raised our collective bar of expectations for professionalism and performance by and from fishing and hunting companies. The arrangements from beginning to end and beyond the trip to include the processing of our fish into frozen filets for air travel executed impeccably. Captain Mike and the Alaska Catch equipment is top tier and well maintained. The cleanliness of the equipment is first rate as well. Insofar as the trip itself, the weather conditions and Captain Mike’s experience with timing of efforts to work the wind, tides, and our family strength as individuals and a group to fish is both an art and a science that Captain Mike synergistically maximized. Finally, Captain Mike is a great communicator of ideas, information and personal stories that will have your kiddos seeking out The Alaska Catch in the same manner as any rugged individual working to make Alaska their home or at least their summer work location. Hunting and fishing trips with my son and daughter before and since divorcing their Mom is our main recreational catalyst to create many great memories. My investment in those trips eclipsed every other financial commitment to catalyze our memory makers. Captain Mike and the Alaska Catch is the best investment of the nearly forty fishing trips we have taken over the last five years. A memorable quote from Captain Mike that I also used in my past profession: “I’m not a mind reader, so if you need anything at all, please talk to me so that we can take care of it.” Your best investment in a Ketchikan fishing trip is the one and only, Captain Mike and the Alaska Catch.

Captain Joey was great knowledgeable and informative one of the best trips with him and I have fished all over the world do yourself a favor and go with him

Captain Mike is a fantastic, safety mined, fun fisherman with years of wisdom.  He kept us on fish all day and was very engaged in interesting conversations.

Mike put us on the Halibut and all 4 of us caught our limit. Excellent trip an I highly recommend him as your Charter Captain.
