About The Bites On!Alaska's Friendliest Catch
Jim & Captain S.
Captain Clay Slanaker
Captain Clay has 30 plus years of fishing experience in the local waters of Ketchikan and Southeast Alaska. I have fished all over southeast Alaska and it is my personal opinion that there is no better place than Ketchikan, the Salmon Capitol of the World! When it comes to finding and catching fish, I will take you to my personal spots I have found over the years. I offer private charters so that I can provide the personal attention you deserve. Whether we are fishing for Salmon, halibut, crabbing, or just a relaxing day on the water surrounded by breathtaking scenery, creating lifelong memories for your vacation is my priority!
* Fishing Licenses and King Salmon Stamps should be purchased online prior to arrival. Children under the age of 16 do not need to purchase a fishing license. THis saves time at the dock and gets you to the fishing grounds as quickly as possible. Follow this link to the Alaska State website to purchase your license: www.adfg.alaska.gov/Store.

"Captain Clay Slanaker is the absolute finest fishing guide in Alaska! On a beautiful, sunny 4th of July Capt. Clay guided 3 of us out to his "honey hole". We caught turbot, pacific cod, rockfish and of course some Halibut. Not just any halibut, but an area record 265 lbs monster of a halibut. I know that this doesn't happen every day, but Capt. Clay was extremely well-prepared to handle this giant of a fish...This was an unbelievable fish! Even if we had not landed such a huge fish (after a long struggle), I would have still rated Capt. Clay as EXCELLENT. I will make sure that my next fishing trip in Alaska is in Ketchikan with Capt. Clay. He is very organized, very knowledgeable, and easy to get along with. With my strongest recommendation - ask for Capt. Clay!"

"Captain Clay Slanaker from The Bites On took us for a wonderful day salmon fishing. I booked him directly and not from the cruise boat mostly because of cost but also based on a recommendation. I am so glad we did. We were a group of five with three adults and two kids aged 11 and 8. He was great with the kids and adults alike. Captain Clay was waiting for us at the dock and we were in his boat and fishing in 15 minutes. It was a great day and we caught 25 salmon. We did have the fish processed and sent home and it is delicious. One of our favorite days on the Alaskan Cruise."
