This was actually called "Fishing and Wilderness Cooking" We went fishing in a small boat and caught Yellow Eye Rock Fish, then went to a wilderness camp and they cleaned and cook the fish into a delicious stew. Wow it was great.

The guys got some fish and the camp was all set up on shore to cook the fish that they caught. They had a great time.

Ken picked us up at the dock. We boarded his boat, filled out the paperwork for licensing and headed out in search of King Salmon. He put us in an excellent spot and DH and I got 6 King Salmon total. He handled the processing for us, and we are looking forward to salmon dinners in Texas.

We chose to independently book through Baranoff on their "Fish and Dine" excursion. This was really a great time for the short period we were in Ketchikan. It is a small skiff that accommodated three of us privately in our skiff, but had several of them for everyone. We went fishing for Rock Fish 200 feet down after a 30 minute or so skiff ride, caught two large ones and a small one, as well as a two-foot shark that we humanely threw back. Then we went to their very well constructed base camp, in a pristine location, where they filleted and cooked our catch... making sure that we ate just our catch if that is important to you. On the way back, we saw a harbor seal sunning on a rock, as well as three Eagles. We threw our fish carcasses and watched the Eagles swoop in. All in all this one is highly recommended... we were treated very well and really enjoyed ourselves in the perfect weather.

We had a good skipper; 5 anglers hooked 4 King salmon and brought home 2; fish was filleted, frozen, shipped home, and arrived in excellent condition.

For me a bad day of fishing is better that almost any day. We didn't catch anything on our boat. We hooked one king salmon but the boat captain missed netting him. We did catch a couple of rock cod. When we through one of them back into the water, an eagle came swooping down to grab it out of the water. The eagle dropped it but it was definitely a sight to see.
