Awesome guide and salmon fishing experience Chris, our guide, was awesome.... moreChris, our guide, was awesome. Fun to be around and helped us catch a ton of salmon on our trip in late July. While we didn't snag the elusive king, we did manage to have a blast fishing and enjoying the incredible Alaska scenery. Logistics were very smooth getting in and off the boat. Shipped fish arrived at our East Coast house about a week after the trip. less

The landscape was stunning, and the salmon were flowing :). Would definitely recommend! less

Took a short cab ride. They were waiting ready for us. Great trip..nice boat..great captain. It was small (only the 4 of us). The scenery was some of the best of the trip. We caught a lot if fish. When we returned to dock, they arranged processing and shipment home. Taxi waiting, then back to ship. Going back to stay and fish for a week. less

In three days we caught 109 Salmon, 50 Sea Bass, 9 Halibut and 8 Ling Cods....and that's just the stuff we didn't throw back. Murray is like the fish whisperer, unbelievably talented and so laid back, he just lets people enjoy the whole experience. We basically saw all of the wildlife Alaska has to offer from the boat.
Water was calm, processing and packaging was effortless and JoAnn and Mark are great hosts. Next time we come back we are doing nothing else but hanging out with these folks. Best money spent on our whole trip.

Halibut Fishing Our family was visiting Ketchikan... moreOur family was visiting Ketchikan on an Alaskan cruise. Prior to arrival the communication with Oasis Alaska Charters was great. They answered all of my questions. The day we arrived in port, we were picked up promptly and transported to the boat. Captain Murray had the boat ready to go once we arrived. We rode out a few miles with breathtaking scenery, dropped our lines in the water and within a few minutes had our first halibut. We saw whales, a hungry eagle and caught our limit on halibut and rockfish. This trip was wonderful and Captain Murray put us on the fish.

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

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.

I highly recommend being on a smaller boat which gives you a 360* view of the stunning islands of Alaska. I saw the best whale bubble feeding view which lasted hours. So sooo cool! They came 20’ from the boat. I feel very few people get that experience and is something I will never forget.
Captain Desmond is very knowledgeable of where to catch the fish and we went to private areas not widely known by the other charter boats. He had the boat ready to go so we stepped in and we were off. The boat is very clean and easy to move around. The inside has a bathroom and an area to sit down if you need a break from the countless fish you’re gonna catch!
All of their boats are great depending on what you want to fish for. Special thanks to owners Joanne and Mark for delivering a fabulous Labor Day weekend fishing adventure!!! lessGreat all around trip My son and I went... moreMy son and I went on a four halibut trip. We were fishing within fifteen minutes of leaving the dock. The boat had everything we needed and the captain and crew were extremely friendly and helpful. It was an awesome experience!

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.

We thoroughly enjoyed our 6 hour trip and had a beautiful day on the water near Prince of Wales Island. less

Captain Murray was professional, knowledgeable, cheerful, and his boat was more than well maintained, equipped, comfortable, and stocked. We all felt welcome on his boat, and recognized during the charter his efforts to make our brief time on the water as memorable as possible. 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.

My 4 hr salmon charter Traveled to Alaska on the... moreTraveled to Alaska on the NCL Bliss. This was my wife’s dream cruise. Several weeks before I decided to try fishing while in Ketchikan. Knowing full well that our time was limited, I choose Oasis both on reviews and the ability to do a 4 hour trip and still have an hour to spend in town. Captain Des and his first mate proved to be the perfect match.
Hearing that the prior few days were slim pickings did not diminish my excitement for the trip. I wanted the experience of a cruising on a small boat and chasing salmon and Capt Des did not disappoint. Headed out to one of his favorite spots fished about a half hour with one or two bites. Not satisfied pulled anchor and went for about 20 minutes. That’s where I caught my first coho.
He was excited as I was. Dropped line and said to me “you need at least 2 “ I told him wanted to have my family In for a salmon dinner fresh caught. About 30 minutes before having to return, I got my second coho.
The reviews are totally correct, these guys work hard to get fish for their clients . While there are no guarantees in fishing it’s not from their lack of trying . In many cases it is a once in a life time trip. And thanks to first mate Alexis, she did the video of my catching both coho’s and captured some beautiful scenery as well
In closing I highly recommend these folks. For cruisers their 4 hour even with the 20 minute ride is perfect.Thanks Capt Des and First Mate Alexis

Our original plans blew up due to Covid and JoAnn and our captain, Chris, stepped in and completely blew us away with an incredible trip. We originally were scheduled with Oasis for a 1 day trip, and ended up going out with Chris for all 4 days. Chris was a blast and put us on the fish each day, catching everything from Salmon and Halibut, to Sea Bass, cod and rockfish. We will be back again next year and the ONLY choice is Oasis Alaska Charters. What an amazing trip! See you next year.

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

Awesome, Excellent, Fantastic and Action Packed! This was my first time... moreThis was my first time in Alaska and my first time Salmon and Halibut fishing from a boat. I learned a lot very quickly with the help and patience of Captain Murray. I don't have anything else to go off of, but we were the only ones rolling in with full limits. Captain Murray and the well equipped boat, the "Reel Therapy", was the perfect combo. Captain Murray kept in contact with other guides and was always actively looking for the "hot spot". Words can't explain the excitement when the four of us in the group all had salmon on at the same time on two different occasions and we landed them all. Captain Murray was working hard netting all the salmon and sometimes netting two at the same time, incredible! You will not be disappointed with Oasis, they are proactive, work hard and have excellent gear. Thanks for the great experience and we will be back. less

Everything from the booking process, communication before the trip, the fishing trip went smoothly. Our captain Chris was wonderful! We caught some halibut and rock fish and sent them home. They gave us the name of a local taxi company to call to pick us up from the pier and the cab driver came and picked us back up. All in all a wonderful experience. So much better than being cattle herded by the cruise line and on a fishing boat with 6 other people. less

Great trip again This was our second time... moreThis was our second time fishing with Oasis. It was probably the worst fishing that I have experienced in Alaska, but it definitely was no fault of Oasis or Capt. Chris.
The weather just turned bad and the seas were pretty rough.
Chris tried hard to get us on some good fishing. I think he really went overboard to try and get us lots of fish, but it just wasn't the day for it.
We brought fish home, but not near as much as usual or as we would have liked, but it was still a great and fun adventure.

We ended up boating about 8 total, 3 nice ones, the biggest about 14 lbs, with a few other misses on our 4 hour trip. All in all a great experience with Murray and we would do it again for sure! less
112 pounds of fish!!! Sometimes you just want to... moreSometimes you just want to get away with some friends, get out on a boat and fish until you’ve had your fill!
I planned a four day getaway with the husband and 5 friends to Ketchikan. I called months in advance as I’d heard things fill up quickly. After calling several companies, I opted for Oasis because of the stellar customer service and reasonable prices. JoAnn answered all of my questions and even made recommendations. It was a wonderful experience.
The first day was an all-day salmon and halibut trip with Captain Murray. We caught the limit!
We had such a good time, we decided to return the next day for a half-day halibut trip with Captain Thomas. Once again, we caught our limit!
In total, after all of the fish was processed and filleted, we came home with 112 pounds of halibut, pacific cod, coho (silver) salmon, yelloweye rockfish, and silvergrey rockfish.
It was a perfect trip. We couldn’t have asked for a better time!

The whole Oasis staff was extremely catering and helpful to our group. From the time we arrived until we had to leave, great lengths were taken to ensure our time was nothing short of the best. Shout out to Capt Chris and Capt Murray. If you're gonna go, request one of those guys!! 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
