I visited Juneau with my father and wife, neither of whom are keen on swells or rocking boats but both love salmon, in July 2021. Thankfully with cooperative weather Capt Jim and mate Gavin found us a fantastic calm spot where they knew we could get a King or two with just the right tide change coming up. Within ten minutes we had our first king on the boat, and ended up bringing in half a dozen more salmon (mixed species). From start (donuts and fresh coffee on arrival) to finish (cleaning and sending our catch go be packed and sent home in the lower 48 when we returned) a really stellar experience with a knowledgeable, professional, and personable crew who know their trade and really enjoyed catering the trip to our interests. Would definitely do again and recommend.

Thank you for the review on my crew. I have passed on your comments to Captain Jim and Deck hank Gavin and they are so proud that you enjoyed their service.
We had an incredible morning with Captain Mike! 6 of us fished and all of us caught amazing fish! I expressed interest in seeing whales. I saw some in the distance but at the end of the trip, Captain Mike took us to an area where some had been spotted. An enormous humpback swam closer and closer to the boat. He came so close it was within feet! The whole trip was a 5 star trip!
I’m really glad that you had a frantic day 👍😀 thank you Captain Mike
Really had a super time with Captain and crewman. You can tell these guys really wanna try to get you on the fish. We caught 5 kinds of fish and had some really nice keepers. The process these guys use to send your fish back to your house is really simple. If you want an easy, fun and productive trip these are the guys to do it.
Thank you for the great review, I’ll pass it in to them, they will be excited. Thank you for chartering with Hi Time Charters Captain Mike
The captain and crew member were very nice, but we didn’t catch a thing. They said August was the time. It’s ok, but it’s not cheap so it would’ve been nice to reel in at least one salmon or halibut. Sport fishing is always a risk.
Thank you for chartering with us. That’s a bummer that you didn’t catch anything. That’s why it’s called fishing, sometimes your lucky and sometimes your not. Your captain has many years experience at fishing in Juneau and if anyone can catch fish he can.
It was a wonderful trip and experience! Captain Terry and Jonah were wonderful and so knowledgeable on the area and fishing. It was a great trip, excellent views of Alaska and we even caught some fish! We also saw whales on the trip. I would recommend these folks to anyone wanting a fishing experience.
Yes, Captain Terry and Jonah both born in Juneau have great local knowledge and lots of fishing experience. Thank you for the great review Captain Mike
