Salmon, halibut or a private Juneau charter?
These are different trips with different price structures. Start with the species and boat format instead of comparing every listing as though it were the same product.
Salmon fishing
A focused choice for travelers primarily interested in salmon. Check season, trip length and whether licenses or processing are included.
Halibut or combination trips
Often longer or more timing-sensitive. Confirm the operator considers your ship window workable before booking.
Private fishing charter
Priced for the boat or private group rather than just one seat. Compare total group cost, passenger limit and target species.

When an adult rate is explicitly listed, we show it first. A lower child, lap-child, or other rate may still make the operator's minimum "from" price lower. Open the live calendar for the exact rate that applies to your party.
