Captain Joe Petrucco was one of the nicest fishing guides I have ever met. He was very polite, knowledgeable, very patient and funny. This was listed as a shore excursion from Princess as Alaska Fishing and Wilderness dining. The boats are very clean and the campsite which prepares and cooks the fish you caught, was awesome. As a solo female traveler I did not know what to expect, but ladies, grab your rain coats and go outside the box and try this fishing trip. The entire crew will help you with everything and you will have one of the best memories to take home. I am going back in May 2018 to do this again as this was that good.

It was the most fun experience of my cruise at Alaska. The captain Tony Moucha was outstanding. It was a very successful fishing trip and he was always helpful and encouraging. He was the reason the trip was such a delight! Of course catching fish was exciting. Upon returning the fish that was caught was sent to Alaska Sport Fishing Expeditions where the fish were filleted, frozen in one pound packages and sent home frozen. The fish arrived home frozen and beautifully package. We followed the suggested recipes and enjoyed the most delicious fish ever. Highly recommend our captain Tony and this Baranof Excursion.

Best Experience Ever!!!

After saving up for a cruise of a life time- Disney Cruise to Alaska, I wanted to also include a life long dream of fishing Alaska. I booked an excursion to fish in Ketchikan at the Baranof Fishing Excursions. Hunting for Halibut! WOW! What a dream come true! Off the ship a quick meet and greet from my captain of my fishing boat and then off to be outfitted, boots bib, everything else needed. We went off to fish with all the gear needed supplied and gear in great shape! Fantastic scenery to fishing grounds and then GREAT Fishing! Upon return they packed and shipped my fish home for me and I started dreaming of coming again. I did, I went again to fish here a couple years later and it was Dream come true ...TWICE! I'm planning and saving up for another trip here!

Fantastic experience, came here off of the Norwegian Bliss and our first stop going through Alaska. Had Sam, first year guide, and what a treat knowing this area was basically his backyard growing up. He brought us to the best fishing spots where I immediately caught myself a nice 32" lingcod, and my boyfriend a nice sized yellow fin. The rest of the trip was bringing in more but the pressure was off in catching our part of the meal coming up so we got to do a little bit of every thing. We booked this excursion directly with the company, bypassing the cruise which worked out perfect. It was just my boyfriend and I with the guide so really had a nice personable experience, for much cheaper!

While we didn't catch our target species, the fishing with AJ and then eating our catch at the Fish House was a 5 star day. AJ put us on the rockfish, and then joined us for a truly excellent meal at the Fish House afterwards. The fish were served 3 (or was it 4) ways, none of which were on the regular menu, showing off their excellent flavor and the chef's skill. I hope to return and do it again, this time nailing a King and a halibut, and enjoying them for lunch.

fantastic staff

We did not have a reservation for fishing, but were staying in Ketchikan for 1 week. We called Baranof and spoke to Chuck the owner. He booked us for the next morning . This was a class A run business--clean, excellent guides, well run from getting to the dock to leaving the dock and each individual that we encountered was friendly. We had a family of 4 and caught rockfish, salmon, halibut and a yellow eye. We ended up going out a 2nd day because it was such a blast....thanks to Johnny, Tony and Trent our guides for making this a once in a lifetime experience for my husband and I along with our 2 teenage boys
