Halibut Seasons: Timing is Everything
Halibut, the denizens of Alaska’s deep sea, have a distinct fishing season. The prime months to target these fish in Ketchikan typically stretch from early spring, around March, to late fall, as November approaches. The highest concentration is often during the summer months, from June to August, when halibut move closer to the shore, making them more accessible to anglers. This pattern, however, can slightly vary based on water temperatures and food availability.
