You select any start-time between: 6:00am - 4:00pm, and you pick your our return time as well. We can fish until you don't want to fish anymore and then return to dock or tour around the beautiful Sitka Sound for amazing views and marine life. Over 4-hrs extra charges apply. Outer Coast Charters is located out of Sitka on the western side of Baranof Island, in beautiful Southeast Alaska. We are owned and operated by year-round resident, adventure outfitter, and fishing fanatic Captain Christopher Paul Jones. He states, "There's no place I'd rather be or explore than Southeast Alaska. Here we have the bounty of the Pacific Ocean at our doorstep with over 18,000 miles of coastline encompassing the Tongass National Forest, the largest temperate rain forest in the northern hemisphere. Our mission is to provide our guests with the greatest sea and coastal adventures out there while providing added safety as we explore one of the most beautiful places on the edges of the earth."

Q&A

Q: What's the best time to go for the EcoFriendly Catch & Release Cruise? I'm considering this for my parents' anniversary.

A: I'd recommend going early in the day, around 6:00am. The water is usually calmer, and you might get to see more wildlife like sea otters and eagles. Plus, it leaves you plenty of time to fish before your parents get tired. Just check the weather—Alaska can be unpredictable!

Q: Are there any age or health restrictions for this charter? My sister’s kids are gonna be with us.

A: There's no specific age limit, but you should consider the kids' ability to follow safety instructions and their comfort with being on a boat. Just make sure to bring life jackets for the little ones if they're not provided. Also, kids usually love the sea life you'll see out there!

Q: How do the extra charges work if we fish for longer than 4 hours? Is it worth it?

A: The extra charges kick in after four hours based on the rate set by the charter, usually around $100 for each additional hour. If you're really into fishing or want to explore the scenic spots longer, it can be worth it! Just discuss it with Captain Chris beforehand.

Just got back from the EcoFriendly Catch & Release Cruise—what an experience!

I took the EcoFriendly 4-hr Catch & Release Private Charter Cruise in Sitka with my friends last week. We started at 7am and the water was super calm! Captain Chris was awesome and really knows the area well. We caught a ton of salmon and even saw some humpback whales! Make sure to bring rain gear just in case. Snacks provided were a nice touch too. Highly recommend this for anyone visiting—perfect for fishing lovers!

Thinking of getting the EcoFriendly Catch & Release Cruise as a gift—thoughts?

I'm looking at this charter cruise for my dad's birthday, he loves fishing and the outdoors. I read that you can pick your own start time, which is a huge plus. Any tips for what to wear or prepare? Should I bring anything special?
