Make some memories in Ketchikan and go fishing with Ketchikan Fishing Expeditions. Having logged over a decade on these waters, Captain Aaron can tell you all about the local fishery.

Depending on conditions, you might hook into Halibut, King Salmon, Coho Salmon, Chum Salmon, Pink Salmon, Lingcod, Rockfish, Crab, Flounder, Cod, and plenty more.

Depending on the species you’re after, you may find yourself light tackle fishing, trolling, jigging, bottom fishing, or maybe something more specialized in this area.

Thinking of bringing the whole family? Kids are absolutely welcome! Life jackets are provided and bringing the youth fishing is highly encouraged!

Your fishing machine for the day is a 25’ Raider coastal, a fully welded aluminum fishing machine with space for 6 passengers. It comes with downriggers, GPS, sonar, a kicker motor, a fully enclosed cabin, spacious seating, and everything else you need for a productive day on the water. There’s a toilet on board for your convenience. Your captain will provide rods and reels, along with all lures, bait, etc.

Before coming aboard, it will be necessary to buy a local fishing license for everyone in your group. This information is usually available online, or you can ask the captain. Some species may be off-limits or require a special tag, so make sure you know what to expect.

You can’t go wrong when you bring sunscreen (non-spray), and sunglasses. Waters are included, free of charge. Alcohol is allowed in moderation, just be sure to avoid hard liquor as well as glass bottles. There will be light snacks available on board.
