As an active member of the Dolphin SMART program, we do not have physical contact with the dolphins on Elite Cruiseship Fishing & Whale Excursions Ketchikan Alaska. We watch them in their natural habitat from the boat.
Dec 2022Yes. Whatever the fishing calls for: live bait, frozen bait, cut bait, or chum, our Charter Captains will have plentiful supplies on hand. The same thing goes for artificial bait such as lures, flies, or plugs.
Jul 2022If you have any doubts about becoming seasick on the water, we recommend taking a Dramamine® Motion Sickness Relief tablet the night before your trip. Some people recommend taking it the night before your cruise and then again that morning so you will not feel so drowsy.
