Captain Grayson was awesome! We had a blast. We would recommend for everyone
Thank you so much for the kind words! We're thrilled to hear you had such a great time with Captain Grayson. He loves helping guests create awesome memories on the water, and we're so glad he made your trip both fun and successful. We truly appreciate your recommendation and hope to welcome you back to Ketchikan's Finest Fishing Charters for another trip soon.
Captain Grayson is the best in the business. He understands and leverages both the science and art of fishing. Wonderful, very effective gear. We caught 33 fish during one of the most spectacular days in Ketchikan.
Thank you for the fantastic review! We're so glad you had an amazing day on the water with Captain Grayson. He truly has a passion for fishing and works hard to combine experience, local knowledge, and the right equipment to give every guest the best opportunity for a successful trip. Catching 33 fish on such a spectacular day in Ketchikan is an incredible memory! We appreciate you choosing Ketchikan's Finest Fishing Charters and hope to fish with you again on your next trip to Alaska.
Amazing private fishing charter. Captain Andrew texted us before we even got off the ship and met us when we got off making it easy and stress free to get started. Within the first hour, my son reeled in a 38" King Salmon and the charter was off to a banging start. Captain Andrew was awesome the whole time. We saw lots of bald eagles and even caught a hailbut (as well as several other fish too). Captain stopped by a processor on the way back so we could have all the fish sent home. Would definitely recommend Captain Andrew and Ketchikan's Finest Fishing Charter and we would do it again.
Thank you so much for the incredible review! We're thrilled to hear you had such an amazing experience with Captain Andrew. A 38-inch King Salmon in the first hour is a killer way to start the day! We're so glad you enjoyed not only the fishing, but also seeing bald eagles, catching halibut and other fish, and having a seamless experience from the moment you stepped off your cruise ship. We'll be sure to share your kind words with Captain Andrew. He takes great pride in making every trip fun, stress-free, and memorable for his guests. Thank you for choosing Ketchikan Finest Fishing Charters and for recommending us to others. We hope to welcome you and your family back for another Alaska fishing trip someday!
I had an incredible day on the water and couldn't have asked for a better fishing charter experience. The captain, Lukas, was knowledgeable, professional, and worked hard from start to finish to put us on the fish. His expertise and dedication really showed throughout the trip. The highlight of the day was landing three king salmon, which made for an unforgettable experience! Lukas was great at explaining techniques, keeping the atmosphere fun, and making sure everyone was comfortable and having a good time. If you're looking for a charter with an experienced captain who knows where to find the fish and genuinely cares about his guests having a great experience, I highly recommend this one. I'll definitely be booking another trip in the future!
Thank you so much for your amazing review! We're thrilled to hear you had such an incredible day on the water with Captain Lukas. Landing three king salmon is an accomplishment, and we're so glad Lukas was able to put you on the fish while making the experience fun, comfortable, and enjoyable from start to finish. His passion for fishing and dedication to creating memorable trips is something we're incredibly proud of. Thank you for your recommendation and for choosing Ketchikan Finest Fishing Charters. We truly appreciate your support and can't wait to welcome you back for another trip. Hopefully, there are even more king salmon waiting for you next time!!!
Great experience! A good time with Lukas for sure!
Thank you for your review! We're so glad you had a great experience with Captain Lukas and enjoyed your time on the water. We truly appreciate you choosing Ketchikan Finest Fishing Charters.
Grayson was the best!! Thank you for everything!
Thank you so much for the 5-star review! We're so happy to hear you had a great experience with Captain Grayson. We'll be sure to pass along your kind words to him! Thank you for choosing Ketchikan Finest Fishing Charters. We truly appreciate your support and hope to see you back on the water for another great fishing trip!
Captain Andrew was fantastic. We had the best experience. Caught halibut, cod and king salmon. I think Captain Andrew had just as big a smile as my 17 year old son. Highly recommend. Andrew was extremely friendly and knowledgeable
Thank you for the awesome review! We're thrilled to hear you had such a great experience with Captain Andrew. Catching halibut, cod, and king salmon all in one trip is an awesome Alaska fishing trip, but hearing that your son had such a memorable day may be the best part of all. And you're right... Andrew gets just as excited as our guests when the fish are biting! We'll be sure to pass along your kind words. Thank you for the recommendation and for choosing Ketchikan's Finest Fishing Charters during your time in Alaska. We hope to see you and your family back on the water again someday!
Had a great trip with Captain Andrew. The boat was very clean and comfortable, our captain was very enjoyable and willing to find fish for us. He did everything all we had to do was reel ‘em in. It was a quick day since we only had a few hours from our cruise ship but he made it count. All 5 of us caught multiple fish and enjoyed our limited time on the water. Everyone agreed we would be happy to fish with him again! Thanks Captain Andrew!
Thank you for the awesome review! We're so glad you and your group had a great time fishing with Captain Andrew. It sounds like he made the most of your limited time in Ketchikan and put everyone on fish (which is exactly what we aim for!) We're happy to hear you enjoyed the comfort of the boat and Andrew's easygoing approach. Having all five guests catch multiple fish is a pretty successful day in our book! Thank you for choosing us during your cruise stop, and we're honored that everyone agreed they'd fish with Andrew again. We hope to welcome you back for an even longer trip next time you're in Alaska!
We arrived in Ketchikan on Sunday my husband and I not knowing where we were going to go out fishing tried before we left with no success our hotel driver mentioned a friend who had a charter named Tony I called him and told him what I was looking for he put me in touch with his boss Captain Lucas and we worked out a price captain Tony was on time and took us out to some great spots my husband and I caught 13 fish between us and what my husband didn’t know was I had something planned CT took us to a beach and I was able to purpose to my husband after 40 years he said yes and so right on that beautiful before God we vowed to love God and each other for another 40 years. It was beautiful thank you again for helping make this happen he then took us to some other spots with water falls and eagles the whole day was magical
Wow, what a beautiful review and an even more beautiful story! We’re truly honored that Ketchikan’s Finest Fishing Charters could be part of such a special moment. Huge congratulations to you both on 40 amazing years (and 40 more to come)! It sounds like Captain Tony and Captain Lukas helped make your day truly unforgettable from reeling in fish to that magical beach proposal surrounded by waterfalls and eagles. Thank you for choosing us for your Ketchikan, Alaska fishing excursion and for sharing such a heartwarming memory. We wish you endless joy and many more adventures together!
Grayson was our captain, would highly recommend! He asked and we told him what we would like to catch and he did not disappoint. We caught halibut, cod, a few sharks and a dog fish. Great experience, boat was clean and the gear was good. Highly recommend!!
