Ketchikan Fishing

Stay at one of ASE’s Ketchikan fishing lodges to enjoy an exciting angling adventure and native culture

Ketchikan, Alaska is legendary for its prime fishing opportunities, especially its strong runs of Pacific salmon during the summer, which has earned it the nickname, “Salmon Capital of the World.” As such, Ketchikan is an ideal place to base a fishing adventure and the lodges of Alaska Sportfishing Expeditions (ASE) make excellent base camps as well as outfitters for memorable angling adventures. We offer affordable guided and self-guided fishing packages that will allow you to try your hand at landing cod, red snapper, halibut, sea bass or five species of Pacific salmon.




Anglers will have a hard time finding a Ketchikan fishing adventure better than those offered by ASE’s lodges. At ASE, we take fishing seriously and do our best to supply you with an exciting, affordable angling adventure. We do that by hiring the best fishing guides you will ever meet and by offering you comfortable, rustic accommodations and mouthwatering meals.



During your vacation at one of ASE’s Ketchikan fishing lodges, there is more to do than just fishing. You will also want to discover Ketchikan, which is home to the largest native Alaskan population in the state. It is home to a large collection of totem poles and galleries displaying native artwork and handicrafts. It is home to a plethora of historic attractions, including Totem Bight State Historic Park, Saxman Village, the Tongass Historical Museum, Dolly’s House Museum and the Southeast Alaska Discovery Center.
