Special Notice!

The Inter-Island Ferry Authority recently announced that ferry service between Wrangell and Coffman Cove has been cancelled for summer 2009. If you have airline or ferry tickets to Wrangell and expect to travel directly to Coffman Cove by ferry, you will need to make other arrangements.

Information on travel from Wrangell to Coffman Cove can be found here.

Hi! I'm Captain Lee Harper and I'd like to welcome you to our website. I love to fish during the summer in Southeast Alaska, and I try to get in as much fishing as I can throughout the rest of the year between teaching high school Chemistry and Physical Science and coaching football & wrestling. I became engaged to Nichole, the love of my life, in December at Diamond Head in Hawaii and will be married in December 2009. I look forward to seeing you in Coffman Cove and sharing some outstanding time with you!

Fishing in southeast Alaska for halibut and salmon is the experience of a lifetime. When you book a charter with me, you'll be fishing in the world famous Alaskan Inside Passage near Coffman Cove on Prince of Wales Island. It's just a float plane ride away from Ketchikan, Wrangell, or Petersburg, about a two hour drive from Craig or Klawock, and a little shorter drive from Thorne Bay. You can also take a ferry from Ketchikan to Hollis with your own vehicle or have a car waiting for you by contacting Ed & Judy Adamson at 907-329-2208. The Adamsons also provide transportation to and from float and wheeled planes in Thorne Bay, Craig, and Klawock.

Reserve your space in the boat now and enjoy the excitement of hooking into a big king salmon or landing a barn door halibut, sometimes doing both on the same day.

One of my greatest pleasures in life is fishing, and it doesn't get any better than in Alaska. As your licensed guide, I will do my best to put you and your party on the fish of your choice; hopefully sending you home with boxes and memories full of the best Alaska has to offer.

If you have any questions or would like to book a charter with me during the summer, it's best to call (907) 329-2044 to set up your reservation. You can also email me and I'll get back to you as soon as I'm able, but I don't check my inbox on a daily basis in Coffman Cove. I'm too busy fishing! You may also phone my parents, Frank and Ann,  at (503) 377-2505 from September to mid-June to book your charter for the coming summer season.

 Let's go fishing!

"Just one more cast!"

Ferry service in 2009 will be available daily between Ketchikan and Hollis. Please contact the Inter-Island Ferry Authority to make your reservations by phone or online.

The beautiful calm waters of Alaska's Inside Passage can make a day on the water incredibly relaxing and enjoyable.
