Ladies,
Michele & I were 'waitlisted' for one of the excursions and so we found and contacted a tour company in Juneau called "HiTime Charters". It is woman owned and operated. The owner, Toni Wisner, is a certified Captain - one of very few woman Captains. She's also really cute/hot looking! 
If you're looking to book a fishing, whale watching, or any other kind of outdoor activity on your own, I suggest you contact Toni at HiTime Charters, email: info@hitime.com, website: http://www.hitime.com
Update: FYI, in the mean time, HAL added another tour time to the one M & I were waitlisted and so now we're booked on that one and we did not reserve a charter with hottie Toni/HiTime.
Cheers, Bet
