Southeast Alaska is the pinnacle of a fisherman’s dream. It is home to an abundance of wildlife and a variety of angling opportunities out on the water. If you are visiting Alaska and looking for a fishing or whale watching charter experience of a lifetime, consider booking with Anglers Adventures & Outfitters.
The halibut is a prized fish in Alaska. Tens of millions of pounds of halibut are harvested in Alaska every year. They are plentiful, so there is little danger of over-fishing halibut. They are nutritious, providing a great source of protein and Omega-3 fatty acids. And, probably most appealing to novice and experienced fishing enthusiasts, even the small ones are, by the standards of the Lower 48 states, enormous. The smaller ones tend to be in the fifteen to twenty pound range, but you can also catch halibut that are five to ten times larger than that. The current Alaska state record for halibut is just under five hundred pounds!
The beauty of Ketchikan, Alaska, stands up to the beauty of anywhere else on Earth. It may be unmatched in its beauty if you are someone who loves to fish. Anglers Adventures offers multiple ways to enjoy some of the best fishing in the most beautiful corner of the world. If you are from Alaska, you know that what we are saying about Ketchikan is true. But if you are not from Alaska, it may be time for a visit. Because even if you end up deciding that you have been to somewhere you consider more beautiful, there will be no denying that the beauty of Ketchikan gave you something to think about.
“Give a man a fish and he has food for a day; Teach him how to fish and you can get rid of him for the entire weekend.” -Zenna Schaffer
That’s right, an entire weekend! If you are an angler looking to venture out into the Southeast Alaskan waters, it’s time you come aboard our charter at Anglers Adventures & Outfitters. Here, we offer an angler’s multi day customized fishing charter all throughout the year. We are proud to provide some of the best charter fishing in Ketchikan, Alaska and are even more excited to offer it as a multi-day trip!
Lots of people we meet love the idea of chartering one of our longer adventures but have one doubt or another. It may be that you have little fishing experience and do not necessarily want to commit to a full-day or multiple-day charter; or you may be uncertain about whether or not you will like it enough to justify the expense of a full day or multiple day charter. If you have any questions or uncertainty about a longer excursion, a half-day charter is the perfect way to get the flavor of what a charter fishing excursion is all about.
Anyone who has experienced the halibut fishing season in Alaska will tell you that it is one of the most lively and exciting times for people who love fishing. Halibut can range widely in size and weight. Some grow to be well over six feet in length from nose to tail, and the bigger ones will challenge the skills of even the most experienced sportsmen and women. They are fighters who will do anything to escape your capture, which makes landing one a real triumph and the source of lifelong memories. Alaskan waters may be most widely known for salmon fishing, but the halibut should not be discounted. If you are looking for an exciting fishing adventure, consider contacting us at Anglers Adventures to schedule a halibut fishing trip.
