Petersburg Fishing Recommendation

Question

We will be in Petersburg from July 1 - 5th. Hope to do some Halibut fishing while there. Would love to have some recommendations re:fishing guides/trips from others who have been there, done that.

We will be in Sitka for several days a bit later. What are some "must dos" while we are in town?

Thanks in advance for your recommendations and ideas.

While Petersburh is a nice SE town, it is one of the least tourist oriented. It is a commercial fishing community. Petersburg and Wrangell are not normally thought of as sports fishing areas. Sure there is some but not to the scale you will find in places like Ketchikan, Sitka, Juneau, Homer, Valdez, Seward, etc. check on line to see if Petersburg has a Chamber of Commerce page, or just google sports halibut fishing in Petersburg, Alaska.
