An Awesome Trip with a Great Company If you're considering a salmon/halibut/bottom... moreIf you're considering a salmon/halibut/bottom fish trip look at Oasis. JoAnn and Mark run a great operation and the price was reasonable for me and my two brothers. JoAnn responds to emails quickly. Three days of fishing got us three hundred pounds of processed fish. You have to pay for the processing at something like $2.50 a pound. Captain Maury was our guide on a 30+ foot boat. He was friendly and very knowledgeable. He does smoke, which didn't bother me since I brought cigars. He was patient and allowed us to do as much as we wanted. I have similar downriggers to those on the boat so he had no problem with us rigging our own lines. It saved time when the fishing was hot - which was often. The boat was clean and the gear worked fine. Having a head (bathroom) was nice since you're out all day. The first day was a little choppy but the boat was pretty stable and balance wasn't a problem. There is a large cabin if the weather turns bad or while you're under way. The dock crew that unloads the fish and processes it were a group of young people that were uniformly friendly and helpful. I asked them to process one fish while we were unloading to give to the taxi driver and they had it done in 10 minutes at no additional charge. they'll also take all the photos you want of your trophy fish. The taxi from the Landing hotel was a flat $50. If you use Sourdough Taxi ask for Carl. He took us to and from the dock every day. He was friendly and On Time - even for our 5:30 am pick ups. I left a separate review for the Landing Hotel on this site if you're interested. … less

Awesome Reunion with Oasis Alaska Charters We had heard that the... moreWe had heard that the cruise lines were not visiting Ketchikan and felt like we needed to joint Mark, Joanne and Capt Murray to help with Covid 2020. What a great time, weather was ok, but Murray put us on the fish and we enjoyed our scheduled two days so well that we all extended to a third day, where we slayed salmon and halibut. Great time had by all and we will be back!!! Cheers to a great organization. less

What a blast! Me and some buddies had... moreMe and some buddies had the opportunity recently to take a day trip out with Oasis. Desmond and First Mate (and daughter Alexa) met us at the dock and in a short few minutes we had the paper work done and were off. Of course it was raining as it is SE Alaska in September but that did not deter from the fun of fishing that day. After only traveling out about 30 minutes Desmond sets up our poles and we're fishing. Doesn't take long at all and WHAM we are getting hits. First we pull in a nice Pink. A few minutes later after Desmond resets that bait and downriggers, two hits just seconds apart. Brought them both in! Nice Coho's. Although we did loose a few, the highlight of salmon fishing this day was having four poles in the water and having action on all four. We did manage to bring three on board! Salmon fishing was a blast but by late morning Desmond knew the salmon would stop biting and we headed a short distance and anchored 350 feet deep for halibut. WOW, never knew the action on bottom fishing! We only had a short amount of time to continue fishing but brought some cod on board as well as a 15 pound halibut. In total we hauled in 15 fish in a very short time. Dock crew were great also. Met us at the dock, hauled our fish to processing, filet them and shipped to my door when I returned. Very easy for vacationers.Hats off again to Skipper Desmond and Alexa! Great experience. You know your fishing and I can't wait to do it again! less

SO FUN! This might have been the... moreThis might have been the best part about our cruise! We had a great time and our arms were sore from reeling in all the fish! Great day and great Captain! less

Fantastic Charter!!! We booked this charter very... moreWe booked this charter very last minute, and Oasis was super nice and accommodating. They were quick to communicate and really attentive. We went out in the morning with Captain Hunter who was wonderful. He helped us max out our salmon limits (other boats were not catching as much as us based on what we heard and saw) and was great to talk to (we asked a million questions and he was patient answering them all). I can’t recommend Oasis enough!!! … less

Another full day out with captain Murray. Last year we had a... moreLast year we had a full day with captain Murray and we limited out on halibut,cod and sea bass as well as a bunch of salmon. This year was more of the same as we had six of us instead of four last year. Didn’t make a difference. We all limited out on the same fish and a lot of salmon. This guide is so busy baiting hooks , netting fish ,watching the fish finder,moving back on the fish after minutes of no bites. I just can’t imagine a better guide. He does the work of three people and when you get back you know where the money was spent and it was well worth it. Captain Murray, thank you for another amazing experience!Hope to do it again next year.

Mark, the owner, picked us up at our ship and we chatted pleasantly on the way to the boat. From there Captain Hunter took over. To say he knows his stuff is an understatement! We put our lines in and had a fish on with 5 minutes. We caught silvers, pinks and Kings (but had to throw the kings back since they were out of season and were tiny). We ended our 5 hours with 3 silvers and 14 pinks in the cooler! We had so many more that we got to reel in, but they broke off the lines just before we could scoop them up. This trip was awesome and time flew by way too fast.
I would highly recommend Oasis Alaska to anyone wanting to take home some Wild Alaska Salmon! less

We caught fish, laughed and had a great trip. Our disabled veterans were treated with respect and honored for their service. Captain Murray is a top notch Captain and fisherman and it was our pleasure to be with him. Doesn't get any better than Oasis Alaska Charters. less

Another successful charter with Oasis This is a great little... moreThis is a great little charter company. They have a good website full of information and make booking and paying for everything easy. This is my second charter with Oasis and also the second time out with Captain Murray. Capt. Murray is a great guy, full of hustle and always on the fish. He has a great network of fellow Captains to draw from but I think they mostly draw from him. The re-power on their boat has made it a perfect charter boat for fishing and when the Chaos hits with 3 and 4 on at a time their is ample room for you and the Captain to get the job done. Please give these guys a call or take a peek at their website and get booked and enjoy your fishing trip. This review is from someone who has used several charter operations over the years in Alaska but this is the only one I have used and ever will use in Ketchikan. less

Salmon and Halibut fishing charter in Ketchican The entire trip and stay... moreThe entire trip and stay at the Clover Pass lodge was a outstanding experience. Oasis Alaska employs Murray the fishing guide and he works very hard to get you on the fish and is a super cool. Boats and fishing equipment were nice and well maintained. The Clover Pass Lodge is older and rooms are small, but everything was clean, well maintained and very nice. The meals that Clover Pass has prepared are great. The fish cleaning and shipping from Clover Pass was a great service. We got 150lbs of fish filets in two days fishing. Overall the entire fishing charter and lodge were great. I would highly recommend this to any one who has wanted to do something like this. Murray is a great guide. I would request him for my next trip. He worked non stop to make sure we had our limits of fish. And he was just flat out fun to fish with. … less

Last Minute Charter- June 12 Excellent trip with Captain Murray.... moreExcellent trip with Captain Murray. Caught our limit of halibut, rockfish, and lingcod.

Called when we got to Ketch and they had a 6 hour afternoon spot. It was a perfect time of day for us and it worked out great.

My only word of advice is if YOU'RE NOT staying at the Clover Pass Resort and YOU'RE NOT already booked through a cruise ship make arrangements to hire a taxi, or ride the bus when it's running with enough time to make your trip. We were NOT On a cruise ship so it took a little more coordination on our part to get out to Clover Pass resort on our end BUT nothing that would preclude us from booking again or hinder you from getting there.

A Trip to Remember My fiancé and I went... moreMy fiancé and I went to Ketchikan to fish and we used Oasis Alaska Charters last summer. We were stunned by the scenery of soaring eagles, whales, and the amount of fish we brought in each day. Before leaving Ketchikan, we had already planned to come back the following year to experience this same adventure again; we truly had the time of our lives! less

Great fishing and boat captain My father-in-law and I chartered... moreMy father-in-law and I chartered with Oasis for a 4 hour salmon trip. Overall the experience was good and the captain, Hunter, was excellent and we enjoyed our afternoon.

The one disappointing part was the transportation. We were on a cruise that docked in a new area west of town. Taxis could not enter the area, so Oasis picked us up and brought us back in their van. A 10 minute trip each way. After spending $640 for a private charter for 2, Oasis charged me an additional $80 for the 20 minutes in their van!!!! Got to be honest, I thought that was a little greedy. less

Great Time Fishing In Ketchikan My wife, kids and I... moreMy wife, kids and I went out for a 6 hour salmon trip with Captain Hunter. Best captain in the 3 times we have gone to Alaska. Great with kids, easy going, incredibly knowledgeable of the are and had us catching fish the whole time.

I know for many going to Alaska is all about the fish count. For us it is more about the experience and being on the water in such a beautiful place. We would have enjoyed this trip even if our fish count was not so high and that says a lot about the area and the Captain.

Fishing gear was top of the line, boat was very nice, especially for the area with an indoor area to sit and then a large fishing platform.

After we finished processing our catch was a breeze. They come right to the boat and take care of it from there. We now have a freezer full of fresh Alaskan Silver Salmon.

We highly recommend this charter service. I know Hunter and the other captains of this group were also working as a team communicating with each-other over the radio trying to get everyone fish on all of their boats. So even if you don't get Captain Hunter, I am positive you will have a great day on the water from the Team Work I saw throughout the day. less

Joanne the owner was very helpful getting all the details arranged

I gave her a deposit via credit card with the balance to be paid the day of the trip

To our disappointment our ship was unable to dock in Ketchikan due to high winds

When I called Joanne to advise her that my husband his friend were so sad that they were not going to be able to go fishing Joanne kindly refunded our entire deposit

This was excellent customer service and a very kind gesture. I would not hesitate in booking again if we ever get the chance to come back to Ketchikan Alaska

Great Charter Company! We fished with Oasis on... moreWe fished with Oasis on July 19th. We were cruising on Royal Caribbean. Hunter was our Captain and we had a great time! There were 5 in our party including 2 younger boys and all of us caught a King Salmon, 2 of which were keepers and one was just a half inch short.

We were personally brought to and from the marina by one of the owners of the company and she was incredibly personable. The trip from the docks to the marina was around 15-20 minutes and well worth it. I have chartered in many areas like Costa Rica and multiple places in Florida and know you are never guaranteed to catch fish. We booked a 4 hour trip which is not a very long time and realize we were very lucky to have each of us catch a fish. We ran into a couple on the cruise who fished in Ketchikan (not with Oasis) who did not catch anything. For us, Hunter had a plan and an area to fish. He worked that area and it paid off.

I was initially a little hesitant to book with a company outside of Royal Caribbean for this charter but so, so glad we did. The whole experience with Oasis, the great communication, everything was top notch!

I highly recommend Oasis for their professional service and personal touch. Thanks, Oasis! less

Before it was all over we had each caught 2 fish in the 10-12 lbs. range. Really gotta hand it to Capt. Murry for finding the fish, helping us wrestle them into the cold box and maximizing our time on the water. Fish ON! less

We had our limits on salmon and halibut by 930am and spend the rest of the day rock fishing! Thank you oasis! less

Chris our captain was knowledgeable about the recent movement of halibut and king salmon. Likewise, Chris was engaging with our group on fishing and other Alaskan experiences. Our party of 3 caught halibut and king salmon even though it was early in the season (June 6th, 2019). We thoroughly enjoyed our 6 hour trip and had a beautiful day on the water near Prince of Wales Island. less

Very knowledgeable about the area and where to actually locate the fishing grounds and not just go with the masses. Better success than any other people on our cruise ship. less

Hands Down, the Best! Oasis and Captain Hunter were... moreOasis and Captain Hunter were indescribably great. Oasis was upfront and extremely helpful with our group. This was our first time on a charter so talking with them ahead of time I had so many questions I was annoying myself. The Oasis team never even sounded a little irritated. They took everything in stride and seemed eager and excited to help even when we needed to add another person at the last minute.

As far as Captain Hunter, I can't say enough. We were all extremely new at fishing. 3/5 of us a had never fished at all and the other two only here and there on lakes. He talked us through everything and ran himself ragged helping out at every opportunity. You could see other boats from different companies out there and no one was working close to as hard as he ways helping us out. I have no doubt that he is adaptable to any skill level and would be awesome for seasoned fishers as well. He talked to us about our options, gave us his professional recommendations, and was insanely friendly the whole trip. He was never pushy or seemed in a hurry to to get us out of there and managed to get us on more fish than we could ever catch. None of us would have thought we would limit out on everything, but we did! We understand that it doesn't always go that way, but it was great knowing he was going to do everything in his power to get us there.

Even the crew at the dock at the end were extremely friendly and helpful getting our fished processed and explaining our options for getting them home.

I can't imagine I will ever go on another charter that was better than this entire team provided. If I am ever back that way I know the only company I will book with. less

Natural Born Predator We went out with Captain... moreWe went out with Captain Chris on the Predator. I would absolutely recommend Oasis Alaska Charters and Chris!! Great time, Great Music, (Of course me and the fiance stopped on the way to the boat and grabbed a 12 pack along with the sandwiches we snuck off our cruise ship - Oasis told us where to go when we booked for the beer). Captain Chris was high energy and all about keeping positive vibes and celebrating every fish caught as if it was the first one!! We definitely decided to ship everything we caught home. It is alot LESS expensive than we thought it would be. Nothing better than eating what you catch, especially when it's Alaskan Salmon!! There are only specific charters that will accept 2 people, and this is one of them. less

What the Halibut?? We booked Oasis independently of... moreWe booked Oasis independently of our cruise ship while we were in port. Our son made all the arrangements for our family of five, grown sons and daughter in law, and everything went very smoothly. We went out with Captain Hunter and while he was still setting up the the second fishing pole, boom! Caught the first halibut! The hits just kept coming after that!! We had a great fishing experience with Captain Hunter, he was very knowledgeable! All in all we caught our limit in halibut, threw some back to finish growing and we also caught a few Pacific Cod. It was still early in the season, a rainy, cloudy cold day but we had a blast! Definitely book your fishing trip with Oasis when in Ketchikan!! less

He put us on the fish and never stopped looking for bigger and better fish. The boat was very comfortable and was set up well for fishing with four people. Captain Ron, you rock! less

Great Day!! We were very happy with... moreWe were very happy with 95% of our fishing adventure. The weather was perfection, the captain was great! The fish were not cooperating, but we thoroughly understand that is out of their hands. We caught 1 king that was too small to keep, and one beautiful Silver. There were no other bites, very disappointing for the money we paid. Because a previous charter did not want to keep their Pinks, they did offer us to keep them. We happily accepted that offer, and are awaiting our fish. We had a bonus of watching 10 whale breaches during our trip, so that was amazing!! we wouldn't hesitate to go with Oasis again. less

Excellent Halibut and Sea Bass Fishing in Ketchikan My husband, father in law,... moreMy husband, father in law, and I booked a 4 hour Halibut tour outside of our cruise ship- We were in port from 1230p-730p and wanted a more personalized experience rather then going through the cruise line. I am SO GLAD THAT WE DID because we had a great day and ended up with a nice catch of fish!

This operation offered transportation from the cruise ship to the marina. As we were getting off the ship, Mark, called us and said he was in the parking lot waiting for us. It was about a 20 minute drive to the marina where we met our captain Hunter. The boat was in excellent condition and managed the sea’s well. It was overcast/rainy (typical for Ketchikan) but also a little breezy. Hunter and Mark had told us that they were concerned with the weather report and we would have to “play it by ear” if it got to rough. Thankfully, it did not get to rough and we were able to spend a lot of time out on the water.

It took a little while for the Halibut to turn on as the tide was not moving in the right direction, but when it did, we quickly caught our limit! One Halibut was 35 inches, which is big considering we couldn’t keep it if it was over 40 inches, so we were thrilled!

After we caught our limit, Hunter gave us the option to do some Salmon fishing or do some bottom fishing for cod/sea bass. Since we wanted table fare, we opted for the bottom fishing- it was not Salmon season yet. Hunter ran for about 20 minutes to get us to a more protected area (the wind was starting to pick up a bit and we needed calm waters to jig). No sooner then we got to this new area, he saw fish on the meter, told us what to do, and boom we started catching sea bass. Unfortunately we did not catch any cod, but we did limit out on sea bass. During this time there was a bald eagle flying around and doing his own fishing which allowed me to capture some amazing photos. We also saw Orca’s and sea lions.

Overall this trip was amazing. We ended up with 3 Halibut, 1 pacific cod, and 15 sea bass. When we got back to the marina, the dock guys met us, took the fish, cleaned them up for pictures, and then filleted and packaged the fish for shipping. Now that we are back home (in Maryland) we should be getting the fish this week. We are so excited!

I highly recommend this company and this tour. It was excellent and we had a great time. While we had a great day, remember, its called fishing, not catching…. Although I am confident Hunter will do anything in his power to put you on the fish 🙂 less

Absolutely incredible What an incredible crew and... moreWhat an incredible crew and ownership.
I scheduled with Oasis charters after everything on our cruise was booked. I am so glad that this was the case. I wanted a charter for 2 which I could not get booking through the cruise anyway.
They were the first people to answer the phone call (not a computer voice) talking with Mark and Joanne was a wonderful experience. I called back multiple times after booking our excursion with questions. They were so kind and answered every question I had without making me feel like what I may have been asking was dumb or stupid. It was our first fishing excursion so I had a lot of dumb stuff I was thinking about. When we got to port Mark was right there waiting. When we arrived at the dock for our excursion we met our captain Axl (not sure of spelling). We could not have asked for a better captain for us. He supplied us with great info and an incredible fishing trip. We almost limited out by catching 9 of a possible 12 salmon in our short 4 hr excursion. The conversation and the expertise he showed was awesome.
Thank you so much Oasis Alaskan Charters what an incredible memory we will have for the rest of our lives.

Salmon and Halibut fishing charter in Ketchican The entire trip and stay... moreThe entire trip and stay at the Clover Pass lodge was a outstanding experience. Oasis Alaska employs Murray the fishing guide and he works very hard to get you on the fish and is a super cool. Boats and fishing equipment were nice and well maintained. The Clover Pass Lodge is older and rooms are small, but everything was clean, well maintained and very nice. The meals that Clover Pass has prepared are great. The fish cleaning and shipping from Clover Pass was a great service. We got 150lbs of fish filets in two days fishing.

Overall the entire fishing charter and lodge were great. I would highly recommend this to any one who has wanted to do something like this.

Murray is a great guide. I would request him for my next trip. He worked non stop to make sure we had our limits of fish. And he was just flat out fun to fish with. less
