Charter fishing trips are available as a private boat or a shared boat. Our fishing rates are highly competitive and very affordable.
Charter fishing trips are run in Puget Sound. This is saltwater fishing. We depart out of Shilshole Bay Marina between May and October, which is in North Seattle. This is a short ride from Seattle.
Private charters are designed for friends, families and more, who desire to fish together and not have other folks added to their group.
Shared charters are designed for anglers who do not have at least 4 in a group and wish to fish with other enthusiastic anglers. While our boat will easily handle 6 anglers, we most often book a max of 5 for shared boats.

How we fish up to 6 anglers – We troll for salmon using state of the art downriggers. With controlled depth fishing, we only run up to 3 downriggers at a time. Sometimes, due to tide and current, we are limited to 2 downriggers. Customers rotate turns for bites/chances to land a fish. This is common industry practice and yields better results than fishing too much gear and tangling frequently.
Flounder Trips – 3.5 hours
$225 per person
- 4 person minimum for flounder trips
- If you have less than 4 anglers, the boat minimum is $800.
- Available between April and October

Deposits
A $50.00 deposit per angler is required at the time of your reservation. We charge a $10 administrative processing fee per person, which is not refundable in the event you cancel your trip at any time.
The remaining balance of your total must be remitted on the day of your fishing trip. The remaining balance can only be made by cash or credit card at the boat ramp, we do not accept checks.
We accept Visa, Mastercard, American Express and Discover on the day of your trip.
Refund/Cancellation Policy
In order to receive a 100% refund of your deposit, you must provide a 14-day notice of cancellation prior to your scheduled date. If you do not provide a 14-day notice of cancellation, you will forfeit the deposit fee of $50.00 per angler. If you paid the trip in full, you will receive a refund minus the deposit for the trip. The $10 administrative processing fee per person is not refundable.
If a trip has to be cancelled by the captain due to dangerous or un-fishable waters, re-scheduling a trip is typically no problem. We want to get you and your group out on the water to fish. We will work with your schedule and ours, taking into account the quality of fishing and the water conditions.
If we are unable to re-schedule your group because our schedules don’t work, you will receive a 100% refund (including the administrative processing fee). The captain makes the final decision on cancellations due to dangerous or un-fishable waters.
Fishing License
One day licenses are available at the boat for those who fly in late and cannot get a license prior to the trip. This price includes a dealer fee per license.
- One day fishing license – $10 per angler.
Tips are not included in your rate. Tips should be based on how hard your captain or deckhand works for you. Deckhands work strictly for tips. In the sport fishing industry, tips are 15 – 20% per person. (That is $30 to $40 per angler)
