Alaska Sportfishing Adventures makes enjoying an exciting Alaska fishing vacation easy
Located on the southern end of Alaska’s Panhandle, Ketchikan is a perfect spot for an Alaska fishing vacation. Nicknamed the “Salmon Capitol of the World,” Ketchikan’s surrounding waters are home to five species of Pacific salmon, which funnel through the area every summer. The waters of Alaska’s Inside Passages are also home to a variety of other fish, including halibut, red snapper, cod, sea bass and several other species. While on the water enjoying an angling adventure, you will also enjoy expansive views of pristine wilderness – both evergreen forests and picturesque waterways.
When planning a trip to Ketchikan, choose Alaska Sportfishing Expeditions as both your outfitter and lodging provider. We offer a variety of Alaska fishing vacation packages, from two days to five days, with both guided saltwater and freshwater excursions as well as self-guided saltwater trips. If you choose the self-guided option, we will outfit you with a charter boat with state-of-the-art electronics and give you just enough guidance before you set out. When you choose the guided options, you will be under the direction of some of the expert guides with excellent safety records that will help you land a desirable catch.
In addition to your angling excursions while on your Alaska fishing vacation, take the time to explore Ketchikan. A charming town built on a steep hillside and on pilings over the water, Ketchikan is full of galleries displaying native art and crafts and historical attractions such as the Tongass Historical Museum, Dolly’s House Museum, and Totem Bight State Historic Park. With the largest native population in the state, Ketchikan is also home to the largest collection of totem poles in the world. You will not want to miss the chance to watch native carvers at work on masks, canoes, paddles and totems at the Metlakatla Long House and Saxman Tribal House.
