Description

There are many salmon charters out there, we are different: 1) We don’t worry about burning fuel to find fish: Whether they’re schooled up in front of the hatchery in Ketchikan or swarming on the ocean waters of Dixon Entrance, our guides have the freedom to find the shiny fish 2) We run cutting-edge boats: Your entire fleet is made up of modern aluminum Raiders. Every vessel in the fleet is running multi-beam sonar with electric downriggers. We give your guides the tools they need to have the best possible shot at the fish 3) Salmon fishing in season offers the best action, best opportunity, and hardest fights of the fish we have in Ketchikan. The quiet serenity of a slow troll can be shattered the instant one of these fish hits, and suddenly it’s all hands on deck to land that fish. The excitement of an active troll bite is the sportfishing that made Ketchikan famous the world over. Book today to experience the rich tradition of Alaskan salmon fishing!

Memorable fishing experience in Alaska

My wife and I had a great time fishing and eating what we caught. Best FRESH seafood cioppino ever. Captain Steve made us feel comfortable from start to finish. It was also great to play with his wonderful two dogs. He took us to different places and depths and all of us caught more fish than we could take in. I caught several rockfish and yellowtail and my wife did the same. We didn’t catch any salmon but did have a great time. The camping with Captain Steve cleaning the fish, us having cioppino over an open fire, having hot chocolate and coffee made the whole experience memorable.

Landon will help you fulfill a dream!

Landon our guide worked extremely hard to put us on the King Salmon which we caught. He is extremely knowledgeable about the salmon and fisheries of Alaska. More importantly he made the trip fun and it felt like we were just having a great time with an old friend. Thank you Landon.

What a wonderful and majic day fishing in Ketchikan! It was non-stop action from start to finish. We caught 4 out of the 5 species of salmon, releasing well over 20 kings. We kept some nice coho, pink, and chum. Zane Farrington was awesome! He has the local knowledge of the area and put us right on the fish. He also has a super great personality and I would highly recommend booking a trip with him. The boat was clean and ran well. The all around experience was top notch!

Salmon Fishing

Garrett was a terrific guide! He was polite and personable and knowledgeable about the fishing we were doing. We caught a lot of nice fish and had a fun day. On our way back he even spotted some Orca’s for us, that was the perfect ending to the day on the water!

Ketchikan Salmon Fishing

Great day with Captain Landon Lamb in the inland passage outside Ketchikan. I strongly suggest you schedule your next Salmon trip with Bonnie and ask for Captain Lamb - fantastic all-around.

Great experience

We went on two charters over two days. The equipment and both captains were great. We had very successful outcomes and I wouldn’t hesitate to do it again.
