★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 70 reviews · 5 hours (approx.) · from $700Our pick

Review of Ketchikan’s private five-hour salmon, halibut, whale watching, and wildlife charter, with practical advice on price, timing, and value.

“My husband and friends wanted to fish in Alaska while on a cruise. I found Ketchikan's Finest Fishing Charter on line and called. The Captain/owner was friendly, informative and overall terrific about helping me to set everything up. Captain Tony met us at the dock - no shuttle needed. The guys were on the boat within 10 minutes and catching fish shortly after. They had an awesome time!! We can't speak highly enough about their experience. Again, they were dropped back at the ship at the end. Fish processing was quick and we are now waiting for our receipt of fish caught (just returned from the cruise).”

★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 14 reviews · 4 hours (approx.) · from $400Best value

Review of Hoonah’s Icy Strait river fishing tour, with salmon, trout, bear sightings, gear, pricing, meeting details, and practical tips.

“After a small snafu with pick up we had a fantastic day fishing with Chris! My husband got to fly and spinner fish which he loved! I am a very novice fisher and learned quickly how to cast. We each caught a dozen or so fish and even got to see a bear catch one about 50 yards from us! It was an amazing experience! Outstanding! Highly recommend!”
