We are very flexible in this area. The best time to catch King Salmon is 15 May through the month of June. The halibut fishing is also good at this time. We can do a combination salmon and halibut trip in one day, but in my experience the fishermen we've had in the past get into one or the other for the day. The best King fishing is within 10 miles of Wrangell.
Kings usually bite on the tide.
So what happens is we locate the feed and Kings with electronics and then fish them until the bite occurs. Most Kings will be caught within 2 hours of the bite. So as you can see it works best if you concentrate on the Kings until you are satisfied with that action. Again, in my experience, when the Kings are hitting hard nobody wants to leave that kind of fishing. We commonly do 'catch and release' for Kings when they are really biting and let the clients keep their biggest fish and quit fishing only when they have kept their limit.
