Capt. Mike meet us at the dock upon our arrival and we had a short few hundred yard walk to his boat. We bought our fishing license online as he suggested and so were off to fish after a 5 minute or so overview of the boat and safety features.
I had zero expectation for catching anything, figured we'd be with a young guide who's job was to just troll next to all the other fishing excursions. Boy was i wrong!!! Capt. Mike is a true guide with a love for the "Hunt" in finding / catching fish. He suggested we go about 15 miles out, we agreed as he was the expert, and after about 15 minutes of fishing we caught our first then the assault was on! We did not rest much for the next 2 hours. We were doubled up 4 different times and landed 2 doubles! In the end we had 15 in the cooler, limited out with 12 silvers plus caught 3 pinks. If limiting out was not enough, on the way to the packer we saw a humpback, 3 orca and a bald eagle. What a fantastic day, thank you Capt. Mike, I'll be back for a halibut trip next time!
If you're looking to fish in Ketchikan, look no farther than Capt. Mike at The Alaska Catch!! While there are no guarantees, he will do all he can to get you on the fish!
