Ketchikan Rainbow Trout Fishing
There is something special about catching beautiful fish in their natural habit and better yet, in their native range. Rainbow trout were actually introduced to many of their most famous fishing locations, but not Ketchikan. These untouched stretches of the river are filled with ideal rainbow trout fishing spots and make Ketchikan the best place in the world to catch these gorgeous fish.
Ketchikan Pike Fishing
Although the northern pike is not native to the bodies of water around Ketchikan, they are a blast to catch and are often a welcome bycatch while fishing for rainbow trout or salmon. This exciting fish is a hard-hitting predator with great-tasting white meat. While traditional tackle works well, fly fishing is a common way to fish the river and it may be an even more exhilarating way to catch pike.
