Incredible fishing with Tony! - Tony was a great guide. Fishing was good so that was fortunate but regardless, he was just a great guy. We learned a ton from him. He was really nice and helpful. Service was top shelf. Boat was great, gear was nice and he made it super easy. He was a fun guy to spend a day with. Me, wife and son all connected with him and had a memorable day. It was a wow trip

Had an awesome time fishing on the charter. Lucas was friendly and knew exactly where to go for halibut and cod—we were - Great Halibut & Cod Charter, Highly Recommend! Went out on a fishing trip with Captain Lucas and it was one of the best days I’ve had on the water in a while. The main goal was halibut and cod, and we definitely hit the mark. Captain Lucas knew exactly where to take us didn’t take long before we were reeling in solid halibut and nice sized cod one after another. Everyone on board caught fish, and there were some real heavy hitters in the mix too.

Sunshine, Halibut, Rock Fish and views👌 - Had an absolute stunner of a day fishing with our Captain Grayson on boat “automatic” we quickly got some lovely sized Halibut followed by a wide variety of Rock Fish while cruising around an island chain just 40min from Ketchikan. Grayson told us all about the area and knew right where the good fishing was. Highly recommend Ketchikan’s Finest if you’re looking to fish here. Thanks for the adventure!

The Best Possible Activity We Could Have Picked for Our Ketchikan Trip - We had a fantastic trip! The captain was personable, funny, and made you feel like the best part of his day. We caught several fish, which made for a great dinner tonight! I will absolutely book another trip next time I come to Ketchikan!

Fantastic Trip! - As a regular visitor to Ketchikan, I decided to give Ketchikan's Finest Fishing a chance this year. Captain Tony & Captain Grayson did not disappoint! We started the trip off by setting a couple of crab pots to soak while we were out fishing. We then made our way to the first spot where we started hooking into fish right away! After reeling in our limit of halibut, the guides brought out some lighter tackle to target some rockfish. With arms tired from all of the reeling, we headed back to town, stopping to pull the crab pots we had set earlier. Overall, the enthusiasm and experience with these two guides was unmatched. They not only put us on the fish & crabs, but their passion for sharing their love for fishing and the outdoors was shown through the willingness to educate us on their craft and their diligent practices. Any future visits to Ketchikan will not be complete without booking another trip with Ketchikan's Finest Fishing Charters!

Awesome day with the pros - Wow what a great day fishing with Captain Grayson! Highly skilled, experienced, professional, and all around fun personality to show you a good day fishing in Alaska. All the gear provided is top notch as well as the new and well-maintained boat. Not only was the fishing great, but we were lucky enough to watch whales and get an up close and personal bald eagle show! Definitely the finest charter guys in town.

Captain Tony Went Above and Beyond! - Captain Tony was amazing, and put us right on the fish! Instructions made pick up a breeze, and his commitment to getting us back to the cruise dock was above and beyond our expectations! The family had so much fun, and Captain Tony handled everything so we could enjoy our time together fishing. This Charter was one of the best we’ve ever had!
