Salmon fishing with friends We had a great time, fishing was good. Mostly we caught pinks, some silvers, and a few kings. Which we put back. Everyone enjoyed the Captain with his knowledge and sense of humor. A great time was had by all. Would do it again gladly.
morelessC1635HIlisar 7/29/2023Would book this again in a heartbeat!! What a fantastic experience we had with Oasis! We had a group of six salmon fishing with Drew. He was very attentive and helped us get our limit of pink salmon in just two hours. We would 100% book this trip again!!! Thank you, Oasis, for a wonderful time!

Waste of time and money. The staff as well as the Captain were very helpful and pleasant. We were picked up a little later than expected and didn’t leave the dock until 12:15. Out charter had to leave an hour early to make the ship and there was no consideration given to the cost. Our boat captain took us out too a place he had never fished and said he wanted to try it out. When nothing was happening he took us to another spot that he said he always wanted to fish but never had. If he is a professional than way try spots with paying client that never have been tried. For my group it was a huge disappointment and waste of money.
morelessrandyhI2215CJ 9/07/2020OVER THE TOP WONDERFUL Purple Heart Anglers is a 501 c 3 all volunteer organization. We have been taking Disabled Veterans on a "Trip of a Lifetime" for 7 years now and as the founder and President I can say we have always been with and will continue to go out with Oasis Alaska Charters. The owners and Captains are, as far as I'm concerned the best in Alaska.

Amazing day on the water! I cant say enough good things about this trip! The 4 of us had a boat to ourselves and Captain hunter was Amazing. We booked a 4 hour charter and were actually given a 5th hour for free so that they could coordinate our return to the port with another party,
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!morelessJL3221 8/18/2022Halibut Fishing Day We had the absolute best day with Capt. Hunter out fishing for halibut. It was very relaxing, fun and successful. We caught several halibut as well as a Ling Cod which is very rare. Hunter was very easygoing and accommodating. The owner, Mark, picked us up and dropped us back off at our cruise ship pier for a very smooth experience. We highly recommend Oasis for a great fishing experience.

Salmon fishing with Captain Mike was amazing! Our group was my Mom (75), my brother (35) myself (52). It was perfect for all of us. I was worried about my Mom because she has had two knee replacements, but our captain made sure she was safe and even reeled in two fish. We had our fish processed and shipped home right from the dock at Clover Pass. We took a taxi to Clover Pass and it gave us the opportunity to see more of Ketchikan. It was super easy. This was my third time to fish in Ketchikan while cruising and this charter was excellent! I would highly recommend this company to anyone who is considering a private charter.
morelessPatrick 8/09/2022Picked us up at ship, delivered to boat, fished, then back to ship. Great time. Good trip. Captain Murray was great and within 10 minutes, we were hauling in Salmon. We limited out before end of time and Murray spent extra time trying something else. Ages were 70, 68, 52, 40 and 12.

Awesome Alaskan Fishing Experience We were in Ketchikan with the Disney Cruise (had my 7 year old son with us) and instead of booking with them and getting random people on our boat I booked through Oasis and it was a great decision! We had the boat to ourselves and Capt. Tom was a great guide, we had salmon on the lines within the 1st ten minutes of our trip! Tom was very attentive and knowledgeable about the waters and local information! If you're in Ketchikan and want to get in some good fishing in with the family or friends I highly recommend Oasis Alaska Charters just take a look at the pics!!
morelessjim 7/27/2016Great fishing! My wife and I spent the day with Axel and his brother. We caught halibut and salmon and shipped all home! We are still enjoying our fresh catch.Looking forward to our next trip with Oasis Alaska Charters!

GREAT FISHING !!! top notch guide service with great boats, equipment and captains.Catch lots of fish with these guys Highly recommend. AAA+++
morelesscourtneymeyer 7/28/2018Oasis Alaska Charters;Bill M. group Very disappointed with 4 hours of Halibut Fishing.We fished the same spot where the day before 4 Halibut were caught.Is this the only place to catch Halibut or did the boat that was 150 yards from us have the best spot? More importantly,we were told that since we did not catch any Halibut some would be sent to us along with the 1 Salmon and 4 Rock fish.We never got the Halibut.Why not? .I have not yet been billed for the cost of sending the fish to The Mcallister address.Could it be that getting my credit card # hand-written instead of electronically an error was made.?

The Best! We had a fabulous experience in Ketchikan! Lots of great memories were made with Oasis Alaska Charters. Planning this trip was just perfect because of the wonderful communication and willingness of Mark. We couldn't thank you enough for getting us the best fishing charter we could possibly have. Oasis Alaska Charters worked extra hard to get us a fishing charter since many of the charters were already booked. Oasis Alaska Charters found us the best. Connor was great! We caught fish! Lots of it! Connor knew exactly where to go and how to navigate to different fishing spots. We had a blast! We even ended early because we caught the limit we wanted. Connor helped us get the fish ready to cut up and shipped back to our home. Last night we had our first piece of salmon and it was absolutely amazing. Thanks for all the memories. We can't stop smiling from this amazing experience. Truly, this was our favorite part of Alaska. Connor, we by far were the best charter we could have asked for. Thank you!!!
morelessJennifer 7/14/2015The Best Fishing Experience Ever! We decided to book our fishing trip outside of the cruise because it was a little cheaper. Booking the trip was seamless and secure. Mark made sure to commuincate everthing I needed prior to the trip before I even had to ask him. Once we got to the dock we were directed to our fishing boat and met our captain. We had the best time ever! Caught some huge Salmon (25lbs, 19lbs, 12lbs.) Our Captain was knowledgable and very friendly. Worth every penny! Would do this again if we go to Alaska again:) I promise you will not be disappointed! I would have given this 100 star rating if possible.

Catching My boyfriend and I had a great experience with Oasis. Chris our guide was great. We felt appreciated and very secure during our fishing expedition. We caught fish and it was all boxed and ready for the plane ride home. He provided us with more then just fish. We saw eagles and he took us by an island filled with walruses. Something you do not see every day. Where my boyfriend is a good swimmer I am not. Chris made me feel very comfortable out at see. We will be back next summer. A big thank you to Chris and Oasis charters for memories and a lot of fish dinners.
morelessDoug 7/27/2022Great Salmon Fishing experience! My two sons and I had a great experience with Oasis Alaska Charters and captain Drew. It was a slow day but Drew worked constantly to help us find the fish. This was my boys (15 & 21) favorite excursion of our cruise and they had a blast! I would highly recommend the whole crew at Oasis Alaska Charters!

Tough conditions..but our captain worked hard to get us into some fish We hit a day on the water where the weather changed from a several day period of calm water and low 70s ambient air temps to a high in the low 50s, with sustained 20 mile an hour winds and rain, sometimes sideways, for the entire day. All of that said - our captain got us into some salmon and halibut and initiated entertaining conversation n between the fish. Well run org.
morelessNathan 8/05/2024Amazing trip Awesome trip. Got us quickly to the boat from our cruise ship and immediately on the water. Very professional and knowledgeable captain. Beutiful scenery and lots of fish!

Best fishing excursion trip of my lifetime! Hunter went above and beyond to ensure we had a memorable fishing trip. He is awesome! We had the best time of our life. Thank you Hunter!
morelessGCGOINGS 6/25/2018Beautiful day on the water Although the halibut fishing was rough, Thomas did his best to keep us in some action. We caught a wide variety of fish and had a great time. If our ship had not been leaving port early, I would have tried to book Thomas for the afternoon also. My sons and i thoroughly enjoyed it.

The laughs & memories will last a lifetime and more . Their plane wasn’t even in the air and they were planning nexts years trip ! Many thanks to Oasis Alaska Charters ,you guys rock .
morelessJoAnna 6/11/2018Best Fishing Trip! One of the items on our family bucket list was to fish for halibut in the waters of Alaska. Not only did we get to fish, but we were able to limit out! Murray was the best captain and knew exactly where they were biting! There wasn't a dull minute the whole time! So nice to be able to leave our fish at the resort and have them process it and they sent it right to our home! Awesome experience!
moreless - tjcuddeford 8/08/2018
Alaskan Fishing Trip Great trip. They worked hard to ensure we had a great fishing adventure in Alaska. They planned our experience around what type of fish we wanted to catch. Our boat captain was very helpful in showing us the correct fishing methods for each type of fish. They provided all the fishing equipment and bait that was needed.
morelessA6963CIchadb 8/22/2019Great experience! Every aspect of the trip was top notch. We showed up early and so did the captain and we got a 30 minute early start! Caught 7 quick pink salmon for fresh bait and the cooler box and we were off for halibut fishing. We caught so many variety of fish it was hard to keep track. We finished the 4 hour trip with a great mixed bag of fish. The captain was great, the boat was well equipped and clean. I'd recommend to anyone.

GREAT PEOPLE TO FISH WITH !!! This is the fifth year in a row we fished with Oasis. They have top notch boats and fishing equipment. There captains are great for getting you on the fish, highly recommend them. 5 STAR outfit !!!
morelessLeisa 6/27/2017Fantastic fishing trip! Wow! We had a terrific morning fishing with Murray as our captain . We went out exactly on time, the boat was very clean, and there were plenty of poles . Murray wanted all of us to catch fish so he kept changing The bait until he found was was working today. Excellent day and I highly recommend Oasis.

Amazing Day of Fishing I can not say enough about your amazing day of fishing with Captain Murray. We were on a cruise and decided the Ketchikan stop we would go fishing. We booked the charter in advanced. Upon arriving in Ketchikan we had Sourdough taxi take us to the charter. We were met by Joann at the dock and introduced to Captain Murray. Captain Murray did a great job at letting us know what to expect and was very helpful. The boat was clean and the equipment was in excellent condition. He had us on fish in no time and the next (4) hours just flew by. We all had a lot of fun and hope to return for another day of fishing with Oasis Alaska Charters.
morelessDarcy 9/27/2019A fantastic time in Alaska! We had so much fun, we even caught some fish! Definitely one of the absolute highlights of our Alaskan vacation. The boat was the perfect size. It was just the six of us so there weren’t tons of people trying to fish at one time getting their lines crossed, etc. I would highly recommend to anyone looking to go fishing to book your tour through Oasis Alaska Charters.
moreless - Joshua 9/02/2024
Fishing and so much more. This exceeded our expectations for a 4 hour charter. We were constantly catching fish the entire trip. Great views and lots of other wildlife encounters; Eagles, Whales, and sealions.

INCREDIBLE FISHING EXPERIENCE Oasis Alaska Charters recently hosted a group of Disabled Veterans from Purple Heart Anglers. The treatment was superb, and the gear and boats are first rate. The Captains, Matt and Murray, are extremely qualified anglers and get you on some incredible fishing. Their skills ensured everyone on-board experienced what Alaska salmon fishing should be. The owner Mark Andrew and his wife made sure our experience was "first class". Any future trips to Ketchikan will definitely include a few days with Oasis Alaska Charters. Chuck, Gunnery Sergeant, USMC (Retired).
morelessJon 2/16/2018Labor Day Weekend 2017 Great guide; we fished for several hours as described in the package and caught several types of fish - halibut, salmon and cod.

We were nicely surprised that it was our Captain picked us up at the hotel where we were staying, and that we got to meet him before getting on the boat. Great experience! …

Timely, Great Service We were at The Oasis dock 25 minutes after our ship docked. We waited less than 10 minutes for our Captain Desmond to meet us. Once we got the licenses we were out fishing. While it was “shoulder” season we still managed to catch 7 fish. It was a great time.
morelessAmanda 6/12/2022Excellent Halibut and Sea Bass Fishing in Ketchikan My 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 🙂

Marvelous Halibut Charter Wonderful day Halibut fishing with Oasis at Ketchikan. The weather was very pleasant as all 6 of us caught a Halibut ranging from 25lbs to 15lbs. Had them processed and shipped back home...tasty! Our Captain was very attentive and knew how to dialogue with our group...fun times. Make sure to say hi to Steve, the bald eagle. Saw a dozen whales and lots of eagles. They picked us up at the port and returned us to Creek Street. Highly recommend...and much less expensive than going through Princess.
moreless1725sunbeam 9/11/20184 Hour Charter off cruise ship on Late August 2018 Although we did not catch anything huge, everyone caught at least one keeper and all had a great time on the charter. 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.

Great Time Fishing In Ketchikan My 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.morelessedteel 9/21/2016Had a great time My son and I just flew to Ketchikan on a wild hair and went fishing. Had a great time. Fishing wasn't great that day, but the captain worked very hard and we managed to bring home quite a bit of fish. I will go back again some day

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!!!

He is efficient, fun, and knows right where to go. We have 2 younger children and a teenager and they all had a blast. Oasis made it easy for us and it was extra enjoyable. The only recommendation would be to make sure you get your fishing license ahead. We thought the company did that but its so easy they do expect adults to do it. Once we realized, we did it while on the boat with no problem! …

After a full day outing with captain Murray we were more than satisfied.

Scenery consisted of plenty of whales , otters and bald eagles. Amazing day!

Best Fishing Trip Ever Perfect trip. Drew and Joann were amazing and very accommodating. The fishing system was down at the state level and Joann drove us to get the license. Drew was our captain and we caught our limit of halibut in about two hours. This left time for salmon fishing and we caught seven salmon (6 pink and a coho). This was in a four hour trip. I cannot recommend them highly enough.

Halibut Fishing Our 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. If you’re not taking your fishing charter with Oasis Alaska Charters and Captain Murray, you’re wrong!
morelessDebra 8/05/2016Great excursion!! Captain Murray was awesome. This trip was amazing. Highly recommend Oasis! We had a great catch and Captain Murray made the trip so much fun!
moreless - seichtermichelle 7/09/2017
Amazing fishing We booked independently from our cruise ship and had the best time. Many on ship were very dissatisfied with their experience through the cruise line. Logan, our Captain was great and knew his job well. We got our limit in two hours of halibut and then had the bonus of salmon fishing. We would like to go back and just experience Clover Pass in Ketchikan. If the charter had gone differently and we were unable to catch fish, we would have still had a blast due to the down to Earth and friendly staff. Highly recommend.

Halibut and Salmon half day trip. our trip was fantastic. From pick up off ship our driver told us all about the town. we saw a bunch of bald eagles along the way. Our captain Hunter put us right on the fish. My wife and I had 6 halibut in less than an hour but since we could only keep one each he took us to another spot. There we jigged and caught Ling cod.After that we trolled and caught king salmon ang one Cohoes. 4hours of action and had fish shipped to arrive home when we get there. Highly recommend oasis charters!
morelessPioneer14713007684 6/23/2019Halibut Galore We had an awesome fishing trip, catching our maximum number of Halibut allowed. Our captain, Murray was excellent and definitely made our excursion fun. I would highly recommend this fishing trip to you.

Hunter Is a Fishing Fool! Booked a 6 hour charter with Hunter. Super cool guy that lives to fish! We didn't have our lines out 3 minutes and we had a triple of salmon on. Trolled until the tide was right then anchored for the halibut bite. Ended up with 19 keepers and threw back at least that many sub legal fish. I've fished all over the world and this young man will get you on the fish. You will not be disappointed with this outfit! …

morelessdalehendr 7/30/2016Catch of a Lifetime My wife and I booked Oasis instead of the Cruise line offerings and had an awesome trip. Mark and JoAnn were great to work with and everything was exactly as they had promised. The boat, gear and Captain Matt were all first class. We took the 6 hour Halibut and Salmon trip and limited out on Pinks in less than an hour. In addition to the 100 pound plus Halibut my wife landed, we caught Cod, Rock fish, shark and several other species (35 fish total). Captain Matt is a fun, hard working guy who really knows his business and I would highly recommend Oasis Alaska Charters.

Great Charter For The Family Went out for a 4 hour trip one day and a full day a couple days later on a recent trip to Ketchikan. Captain Murray was great. Fishing was slow, but he still managed to get us into fish both trips. He even gave us a little whale watching tour when he spotted some as we were just starting out. Would highly recommend booking a trip with Oasis. The whole family will enjoy a day out with Captain Murray
morelessJYEng1 8/20/2023Great charter fishing adventure for our family in Ketchikan Oasis Alaska Charters made our Ketchikan fishing experience memorable!

Top Notch Organization Across the Board! From start to finish this was one of the best and easiest vacation experiences of my life. Joanne was very informative and patient with all my questions. Tammy, our shuttle driver was amazing and had a ton of local knowledge. Hunter was our guide, and he did put us on the fish. We brought back 20 Salmon, but even if we would not of, he would have made sure we had a good time. I will be back to Ketchikan to fish with this group again.

I would not hesitate in booking again if we ever get the chance to come back to Ketchikan Alaska

Halibut Fishing Charter Oasis Charter was amazing. First, communication was fantastic!!! The shuttle was there waiting for us as we debarked the ship. Everyone worked with us to make this Charter fantastic given our tight time-line. Hunter was a great guide. He took us to spots that had the most success rates. Within 20 minutes we had our limits of halibut. We then trolled for salmon. Before Hunter could finish explaining what to expect we had a coho on the line. Within an hour, we caught 6 coho salmon but, two got away (not Hunters fault, lol). Oasis took care of the fish processing and shipping to our home. They got us back in time to quickly visit a shop to get a t-shirt! I highly recommend Oasis Charter especially if you are taking an Alaska cruise. So, we did a shore salmon fishing excursion the day before and caught absolutely nothing. In addition, it was expensive. Don't waste your time or money on this, book with Oasis Charter instead. Thank you Oasis Charter and thank you to Hunter and the entire team for a great trip!

Great Day!! We 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.

Best of Alaska Good people, great views, excellent experience. This is one of the best excursions we took in Alaska.You really have to do this!
morelessStephani 7/14/2015Excellent Charter! We chartered the Oasis for my family to take a short 4 hour fishing trip when we visited Ketchikan Alaska! We could not have been more pleased with our charter! Mike was our Captain - he was awesome! We had an excellent time and would definitely recommend Oasis to anyone visiting the area. We only wished we had more time to fish!

Absolutely beautiful weather on the water with Captain Murphy. There was never a dull moment. BEST DAY EVER!! I cannot say enough good things about Oasis Charters. From top gear, awesome customer service, friendly staff, top notch Captains and comfortable boats, it doesn't get any better than this!!!

We have been taking Disabled Veterans on a "Trip of a Lifetime" for 7 years now and as the founder and President I can say we have always been with and will continue to go out with Oasis Alaska Charters. The owners and Captains are, as far as I'm concerned the best in Alaska.

Excellent trip again!!! We had used Oasis Charters when we visited Alaska in 2016 and when we came back to Alaska again July 2018 we definitely had to use Oasis again. The whole experience was AAA rating. The captains are great and make sure you catch what you are fishing for. The office people courteous and helpful!!! I would definitely recommend this company to anyone who wants a great time of fishing!! I guarantee that whenever we come to Ketchikan we will definitely fish with Oasis Charters!!!

Excellent Charter and Great Service Our half-day charter was excellent. Oasis Alaska Charters was on time to pick us up, very communicative, friendly and our captain did all he could to put us on halibut. And that he did! We caught three nice size halibut and a pink salmon. We had a great time and appreciate the service. We definitely recommend them. A bonus is they can filet and ship your catch at the marina. Overall, we had a great time.
morelessVacationer31569 12/27/2017Wonderful fishing charter experience We chartered two fishing boats for our excursion, while our cruise ship was docked in Ketchikan. We used Sourdough taxi to bring us conveniently to and from the pier. We ended up shipping our catch home through Clover Pass. I recommend Oasis highly and without reservation!

Excellent Fishing Charter! Highly recommend!! From start to finish dealing with Mark and Joanne was an absolute pleasure. They made organizing my group so easy. The charter was great. My group thoroughly enjoyed themselves and Hunter and Josh were outstanding captains. We booked this direct through Oasis vs the Cruise line and we are very pleased we did so! Highly recommend!! Bonus.. we caught a ton of fish and had the best time!
morelessJ3nny150N 3/04/2015Breathtaking Beauty and Fun! I felt like I threaded the golden needle on this fishing charter. Nonstop action on all the Rigs. Plus a Whale and it's calf jumped into the air next to our boat! Can hardly believe I was able to catch Salmon, Halibut and Cod all in one afternoon. A truly Great Alaska Experience!

Awesome experience A well run charter experience right from the initial on line query to the actual fishing! Murray is an excellent fishing guide and very willing to share his experiences and wealth of local knowledge with us who were fishing! Thank you for the right information and the great communication and a superb fishing day!
morelesscesarpnc 7/09/2020Amazing fishing trip We booked a 2 day fishing trip with oasis Alaska charters and it was the best decision on this trip! From the day we booked online we got a call to confirm and customer service was beyond what we expected. We got to fish with captain Murray and he knows his stuff. Very friendly and patient. We had our limits on salmon and halibut by 930am and spend the rest of the day rock fishing! Thank you oasis!

Awesome! We had such a great experience. Limiting out on several different species of fish. Murray aka “Captain Rob” was awesome!
morelessMeghan 6/30/2023Don’t Think Twice! We had an absolute blast with Captain Hunter on our 4 hour halibut trip!! My husband and I caught over 30 fish in 4 hours. We caught a variety of fish including: coho, pink salmon, king salmon, chum, and halibut. Our lines were busy the entire time on the water. We were so fortunate to have a calm and hard working guide provide us with the best experience. Thank you so much for making this one of the highlights of our vacation!!! They also filet and ship home. We sailed on a cruise and booked this ourselves. They were timely with pickup and drop off and super friendly too. If you are debating whether or not to book this trip, it’s a definite yes!!

Amazing So glad I found this company to take us fishing while we were in port on a cruise. They were amazing and took us to spots where we would catch hailbut and salmon. We also cought rick fish, black cod and even a shark. For the life of me I can’t remember our captains name but she was a girl! She was amazing. The fish sure kept he busy the whole 4hrs. If I wasn’t pulling one 1 my husband was. She made sure we had an amazing time!!!
morelessewhitney4 9/18/2018September Chartered Fishing Trip Very professional and friendly fishing service. 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.

Alaskan Cruise Fishing Trip My wife and I were taking a cruise with another couple. One of the wives wanted to catch salmon while I wanted to fish for Halibut. Oasis had a 6 hour trip that was for salmon and halibut. The booking process was easy and with 4 of us, we would have our own boat. The booking process was easy and they guided us through everything we needed to get from the cruise ship to the marina. Our Captain, Thomas, was great. Our cruise ship had a small window of time to be in Ketchikan, but Oasis Alaska Charters was ready to go and we had a great trip and made it back to the ship with time to spare.
morelessL3405GQmarkw 8/23/2019Charter fishing trip Captain Murray besides being an outstanding captain and "fish getter" was a hoot, He provided a very safe and friendly experience. 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!

Natural Born Predator We 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.

Private Fishing Charter My husband and I went out with Chris and had a great time. 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.
morelesstracibaskett 1/23/2015Why look further when you've found the best Fish ,Fun & the BEST TIME EVER . These guys are ROCK STARS ....we couldn't dream of going on a charter with anyone else ..

Most Excellent Time !! If this is something on your bucket list ,we( me, my wife and sister-in-law, all over 65 ) highly recommend Oasis Alaska Charters. We signed up for a 3day 8hour fish. we found this duration to be just right for our first time. Don't do less than 8 hour trip. The scenery is wonderful. Might see a whale or two.Their operation is top notch. Joanne and Mark make sure you are receiving a first class experience . Our guide Captain Murray was super handling 3 neophytes. He made sure we.got on fish and he was very helpful at putting each of at ease. Oasis boats and equipment are top of the line. I guess all I can say now is we are going to do this again. Halibut walker Bob.
morelessJD 6/25/2022Great Charter For The Family Went out for a 4 hour trip one day and a full day a couple days later on a recent trip to Ketchikan. Captain Murray was great. Fishing was slow, but he still managed to get us into fish both trips. He even gave us a little whale watching tour when he spotted some as we were just starting out. Would highly recommend booking a trip with Oasis. The whole family will enjoy a day out with Captain Murray
