Dream Fishing Trip - This captain went above and beyond to make a dream fishing trip come true.
He kept the experienced and novice fishermen engaged the whole time.
I use the word fishermen loosely because it was really the women who hooked all the fish!
If you have a choice he is the one to pick. His son Reggie was great with communication the whole time before we got there.
Tight lines and smooth seas Captain!

Enjoyed 2 More Amazing Charters Because the First Charter Was SO GREAT!! - Amazing and Memorable Experience with Friends!! Had Family members on a second fishing vessel with the same company and a Fantastic Time was had by all! Caught limit on Halibut and even pulled in some Cod fish, then Cranked heavy on Salmon Fishing grounds for another 14 to be processed and sent home after we arrive from our Cruise to Alaska! Boats were ready to fish as soon as we arrived in port from our cruise and we fished all the way up until the All Aboard call to get back to our relaxing cruise ship. They do it all for you and just allow you to enjoy yourself and fish!! Action on the water ways from the quick walk from the ship to the marina port dock located next door and immediately we were fishing- No time lost! Mike was our captain and he was super informative about the area and the species. We are from NW Florida and are used to deep sea fishing in the Gulf and Keys. Super different terrain in Alaska and technique, so an experienced captain that also does charter fishing during the Alaska off season down in the Keys, made for excellent conversation and instruction! This is our second time booking with Alaska King Fishing Charter, as we also booked directly with Sara and Vrej (when he was only 13 years old) in 2017 from a cruise we took then. It was so memorable then, that we booked directly again and booked a second boat for our family members and they had great catches also! Highly recommend this company and will do it a third time if the Lord allows us to return to Alaska!!!

Best captain, made the... - Best captain, made the fishing easy and they were biting! We caught the limit of salmon, a couple halibut (had to release those cause it was Friday), even a shark!

The BEST fishing of our lives! - Kevin and Carol were amazing and friendly hosts for our salmon and halibut fishing excursion with Alaskan King Tours. Our day could not have gone any better as we met our maximum fish amounts so quickly! Plus, the weather was perfect which was a treat for our first day in Alaska. Thank you Alaskan King for making our family trip so memorable. Private tours with Kevin and Carol are THE way to fish.

Ditch the cruise ship excursion, go with Alaska King Fishing Charter - Captain Justin was amazing from the get go! Was very knowledgeable about the area, fishing and his passion, music 😀. Once we anchored, he walked us two newbies through everything and for our friends who are pros, respect and guidance. He was so excited for us all with our pulls and genuinely happy to be out with us. Amazing and easy private excursion for those cruising to Ketchikan.

Amazing time on the water - Justin was a wonderful fishing guide. Very friendly, and kind when explaining fishing tips to my 11 year old. He made us all laugh as well. The boat was great as it had an enclosed pilot house to shelter us from cold wind and sprinkles. Justin even helped arrange for our fish to be shipped back and kindly offered to add a little of his own person supply of fish so we had a variety to bring home. If you want adult beverages, do bring your own but the boat had plenty of bottled water.

The best day! - William and Reggie were great! They were recommended by both our Air B&Bs and a number of locals we ran into during our trip. Reggie answered all our questions prior to booking. They both offered guidance and help on the boat. They listened to what we hoped to get out of our experience, and then did everything they could to make it happen. We had a great time, and would highly recommend.

Pick this tour! - We had awesome time with Mike. Great experience, learned a lot and we will be getting the salmons we caught delivered to our home. There’s a lot of tours available in Ketchikan and there no way to see/do everything, but if you had to pick just one, this is the tour to pick!

Best Father's Day ever! - We had an amazing time! We took our dads for a Father's Day fishing tour. Our guide was patient with us, as we had 70+ year old and novices in the group. He assisted us in every aspect of our trip, from baiting, catching, paperwork, photos and the processing of our catch. It was the perfect day!
