Ruby D ChartersΒ
First and most importantly, we offer private charters only! If you book for 2, 3, or 4 people, we will never add other anglers to your trip. The boat is yours, and every chance at every bite is yours! Many charters offer shared trips, meaning they may add other people to the boat even if you book for just 2 or 3 guests. With us, your group gets the entire boat to yourselves.
Located in the greater Seattle area, Puget Sound is one of the most beautiful fishing destinations in the Pacific Northwest. Join Captain Dale Drogseth or Captain AJ aboard Ruby D Charters for an unforgettable fishing experience!
Your vessel for the day is a 29-foot North River aluminum fishing boat powered by twin 300 HP Suzuki outboards. She can reach an impressive cruising speed of 32 knots and a top speed of 42 knots. With ample space inside the cabin and on the spacious fishing platform, she is ideal for up to 6 guests, with 4 anglers fishing at the same time. The boat also features a private head with a sink and soap. The cabin is heated!
The species we target depend partly on what the Washington Department of Fish and Wildlife has open for harvest. Salmon fishing is available for much of the summer, Lingcod season opens on May 1 for approximately six weeks, and Flounder fishing is open year-round.
We provide excellent fishing equipment and Garmin electronics to help make your trip a success.
Fishing licenses are available for purchase aboard the boat.

4 Hour Trip β Afternoon Only on July 24, 2021Β β’Β 4 adultsHad a half day trip in the afternoon with Captain Dale. Even though the action isnβt as great in the afternoon we still got fish into the boat. I even caught a wild king, but unfortunately had to return it to the water.

6 Hr β Salmon Trip | High Season on August 22, 2026Β β’Β 4 adultsCaptain Dale was very attentive and six hours went by so quickly. All we had to do was reel the fish in. Captain took care of everything else. Overall was a very pleasant first time experience and would love to do it again.

Tom Hufford5.0VerifiedEarly morning 6 hour trip with Captain Dale.
6 Hr β Salmon Trip | High Season on August 13, 2021Β β’Β 4 adultsA great hard working Captain with a newer boat in excellent condition and top notch equipment. He knew right where the Pink Salmon were at and had us bringing them in just a few minutes after the lines went in the water. Gave us great tips and instructions taught all 4 off us some wonderful things. We left the dock at 5:30 am, right on time and two hours later weβre weβre on our way back in with all of us hitting our limit. He came across as a very ethical businessman and sportsman too. Next time we have friends coming to visit us from back in Ohio I will definitely book with him again! He even cleaned and filleted our fish without being asked too! I could not ask for more in a charter.
