If you want to enjoy an adventurous Alaskan fishing trip, you cannot beat the fishing packages offered by Alaska Sportfishing Expeditions’ three lodges near Ketchikan.

Some packages also include meals at our lodges’ dining rooms. The affordability of the fishing excursions our lodges provide will surprise you.

When you choose Ketchikan as your Alaska fishing destination and one of our lodges for your accommodations, your lodging will be only footsteps away from the docks where our guided and self-guided fishing excursions depart. If you choose a guided tour, you will be under the direction of some of the best guides around who will do their absolute best to lead you to the right place to reel in an incredible catch.

While in the Ketchikan area, fishing is not the only activity that should be on your itinerary. You should also take some time to explore the Ketchikan area – hiking the miles of trails surrounding the area, exploring its art galleries, and discovering its historical sites. Boasting the largest native population in the state, Ketchikan displays the world’s largest collection of totem poles. You will not want to miss the chance to see native carvers at work creating totems, canoes, and paddles at the Metlakatla Long House and Saxman Tribal House. Finding out about southeast Alaska’s history at the Tongass Historical Museum, Dolly’s House Museum and the Southeast Alaska Discovery Center is also a rewarding experience.
