Your cruise excursion adventure begins here...

Day 1

Topping the list of Alaska’s ‘must do’ experiences, many anglers dream of catching their own Pacific Halibut. Imagine the bragging rights that will come with sharing your pictures, stories, and even fish with friends and family back home. Unlike many other well-known halibut fishing grounds around Alaska, halibut fishing from Ketchikan takes place in protected waters and is just a short ride from the cruise ship dock, making it the ideal opportunity for visitors of all ages and abilities. Spend the day with your experienced Alaskan guide in pursuit of the elusive halibut while learning the ‘local’ secrets of fishing circle hooks and jigging, and working the tides as you battle your leviathan. Upon return to Ketchikan you will have the opportunity to custom process and ship your halibut home (not included).
