The salmon fishing in Ketchikan is on fire right now! The pink forecast was on the lower side this year but seems to be stronger than last year which was out of control. The silvers are steadily building and there is still some king salmon around! What fun it has been! Oh yeah and with almost zero pressure on the halibut in Ketchikan they seem very abundant in all of the old holes! Hope to see you this year it’s the perfect year with zero pressure and the fish are abundant.
Ps the king salmon limit just got raised for resident and non resident anglers!

Getting better by the day
Salmon and halibut fishing in Ketchikan is getting better by the day. We’ve had a big influx of pink,chum, and silver salmon showing up with the kings this year which is abnormally early. The action has been second to none! If you’re looking for a Ketchikan Alaska fishing charter this year would be a great year to come. There’s very minimal pressure and it’s shaping up to be a great fishing season. The non resident king salmon annual limit for raised to 4 for the duration of the 2020 fishing season and the terminal harvest areas have been opened allowing 3 king salmon per day with no annual limit! I hope to see you soon!
Ketchikan is off to a great salmon and halibut fishing season
Ketchikan is off to a great salmon and halibut fishing season. We are open for business in Alaska! Now is the time to get away from the craziness and come enjoy some peace and quite. Due to very low tourism in Alaska this year the Alaska Department of Fish and game has made king salmon limits higher and the halibut slot limit bigger. We anticipate it being even better fishing than normal due to much less fishing pressure! Give us a call to book your next Ketchikan Alaska fishing charter. We can help you find lodging and transportation as well! Hope to see you all soon!
Fishing in Ketchikan in May.
The 2020 fishing season in Ketchikan is about to kick off! We have a few open slots left for the 2020 season but it’s getting slim. May is an incredible month for fishing. The halibut start moving in and the king salmon start moving into the inside passage headed toward their spawning grounds. This can be a great time to chase trophy king salmon. A Chinook over 30 pounds is often referred to as a “tyee” it is not uncommon to find one of these special fish in the month of May and June and even into the beginning of July. Give us a call to book your 2020 fishing excursion in Ketchikan. We will customize a trip for you and give the best Alaskan fishing experience you can find.
