My wife and I always wanted to try fishing in Alaska and when this opportunity arose, we jumped at it. Our experience with Captain Mike was fantastic right from the start. He's personable, patient and knowledgeable.
Our focus was on salmon and Captain Mike seemed to get us on track after a short journey from our dock. We lost a few at first, but the Captain explained how the fish react once hooked and after listening to his short instructions, I don't think we lost another fish.
This was our first trip to Alaska (Ketchikan) and our first experience salmon fishing. We decided that we're going to make the trip back and give Captain Mike a call for round two. Loved every moment - just wish we spent another day on his boat while we had the opportunity.
We had food and drinks brought on the boat and Captain Mike shared some of his snacks. Since we booked through our lodge, I'm not sure if food was available through Captain Mike.
We highly recommend Captain Mike and The Alaska Catch Fishing Charters. While out on the boat, ask the Captain about his barber shop. Enjoy!
