Hey everyone! I am planning on booking a trip for 5 people for my bachelor party to Ketchikan, Alaska in July. I've never been before and the 4 other guys have not done much fishing at all. I wanted to do 2 fishing charters - One for salmon, one for rockfish/Halibut.

1.) Does anyone have any recommendations for charters or people they could connect me with up there?

2.) Does anyone have any general information/pieces of advice/recs for other things to do?

Thanks so much!

Planning on fishing tomorrow 7/3, don't know if I'll be launching from the boat ramp or behind MBK but would love some company! I'll probably be going for rockfish but may drift for some halibut as well if I find some bait!

PS does anyone know if people are still getting squid? Debating on bringing out the chains or not

Thanks!!

Hey everyone,

I'm a shore angler who recently got some offshore experience from a friend who had a boat. It was awesome not getting snagged constantly and pulling up limits way easier than on the shore. Unfortunately he moved away and sold his boat so I ned to figure out a way to get out there (hence the kayak forum). I'm hoping to get into kayaking and would love to get any advice from anyone. Looking forward to making my first purchase and getting out there with the rest of y'all.

Tight lines,

Poonsie
