If you’re going to cast a line in Everett, look no further than Seeking Limits Summer Salmon. Having logged many hours on these tides, Captain John can tell you all about the local fishery. You’ll be casting lines from a 27’ Aluminum fishing with a capacity for 6 passengers. It comes with downriggers and all the essentials.
These waters are known for Salmon, Chinook Salmon, Coho Salmon, Pink Salmon, Lingcod and more – with any luck, you’ll hook into a few! Depending on the species you’re after, you may find yourself trolling, jigging, or maybe something more specialized in this area. Rods, reels, and tackle are provided, as well as lures.
Planning a family adventure? Kids are absolutely welcome! If you don’t have a child-sized life vest of your own, be sure to ask if there’s one on board. Snacks are never a bad idea so that nobody gets cranky on an empty stomach!
Before coming aboard, you will need to have a valid Washington State Saltwater fishing license with a Salmon catch record card for this trip. These can be purchased at many licensing locations all over the state. There are options for 1-day, 3-day, and annual fishing licenses.
PLEASE NOTE: You must have the physical copy of your Salmon catch record card, this is not available for printing from online sales. If you plan to buy your license online, you must do so early enough to allow 2 weeks to receive your physical license in the mail. If your trip is planned shorter than this 2-week window, please make sure you go to a licensing location, and buy your fishing license in person.
Don’t leave home without sunglasses, a hat, sunblock (non-spray), and bottled water. If you’d like to bring other drinks, just ask. Alcohol is allowed in moderation, but try to avoid hard liquor as well as glass bottles.
Give yourself something to look forward to and book a trip with Seeking Limits Summer Salmon!

Full Day Salmon Trip
Of all the captains I reached out to in March, he was the only one that recommended waiting for August to hit the pink run with my daughter. Character is on point with this man. The experience was one that will be a lifelong memory. We will be back to make new ones in the future.

Full Day Salmon Trip
John was great and very knowledgeable of the area, equipment, fish and anything else we wanted to ask him. His setup was awesome. Boat was comfortable and easy to fish on. Makes it look easy. He was quick to get us onto king salmon and in no time we were getting bites left and right. We quickly limited out in under 3 hours! Perfect conditions. Cleaned and bagged our fillets for us! Would use him again without hesitation!

Full Day Salmon Trip
Went on a random Tuesday morning and John turned it into an epic trip! He has a perfect knowledge of the salmon fishing areas and regulations around Puget Sound and we were catching good-sized Coho salmon within 15 minutes of putting our gear in the water. He has all of the cool equipment you need to make sure you catch your limit every day! I cannot recommend him enough - I know we'll be out fishing with John again!

Full Day Salmon Trip
I have been on many guided fishing trips, and most were very impressive. This was the final boss of that. John is a scientist and artist. I’ve never seen anything like it. Not only is he professional, organized, on time and carries himself with respect and confidence, he backs it up with results in a humble display of excellence. 10/10 this is as good as it gets. Period.

John is a fantastic captain and really knows the water. He had us on target all day, and kept us entertained as well. We will definitely be coming back for pinks or coho very soon.
