Svenson Sportfishing is run by Captain Axel Svenson, born and raised fishing in Ketchikan. His family came to Ketchikan from the Aleutian Islands during World War II and has made its living seining, gillnetting, and chartering ever since; Axel has fished since age three and has chartered visiting anglers for the past 15 years.
The operation runs private salmon and halibut charters — every trip gives one group the boat and captain to themselves — with a captain roster that includes Ketchikan-raised Leif Svenson and guides Conner and Sammy Vacca.
