Charter for Life
Private 6 Hour Morning Charter on May 13, 2023
Captain Doug is our family charter for life! I first found 365 Charters after a miserable experience with a different captain, with whom we didn’t catch anything and were on a filthy boat with a foul bathroom. I went looking for a better experience and found the best! I tried Captain Doug first on a bass fishing trip. I had never caught bass before, and was nervous. Captain Doug was so patient and knowledgable - I caught a dozen bass my first trip! Next I brought my adult children salmon fishing in Puget Sound where we all limited on salmon and had an amazing time, His boats are always immaculate and his bathroom spotless. I’ve gone flounder fishing with Captain Doug, too. I actually take clients and colleagues on afternoon flounder trips, since I work out of Seattle. No matter if you are a novice or a master angler, Captain Doug will teach you something new, make you laugh, and show you a marvelous time. Our family has a Captain for life!

Pink fishing with 365 Charters.
Shared 6 Hour Morning Trip on August 13, 2023
I have been fishing with 365 charters for several years now. Capt Doug is a true professional, and always has put us on the fish. No matter what your experience or skill level, Capt. Doug can take that into consideration and customize your trip to you. He has the best gear, and keeps his boat immaculate, which says a lot about a charter captain. He is a wonderful instructor, and I feel that I learn something every time i go out with him. I would totally recommend taking a trip with him.

Your captain
Seattle, Washington, United States
I’ve been passionate about fishing since I was five years old, when my dad gave me my first rod, reel, and tackle box — a moment that sparked a lifelong connection to the water. Growing up, I fished for bass, crappie, and catfish, and that early excitement only grew stronger as I explored new species and waters across the globe, including during my time in the U.S. Navy. After moving to the Pacific Northwest in 1990, I became deeply committed to mastering its diverse fisheries and eventually turned that passion into a full-time career as a charter captain and fishing guide, operating since 2008. What drives me in this industry is more than the thrill of the catch — it’s the opportunity to share unforgettable outdoor experiences, help people connect with nature, and witness the pure joy of someone landing their first fish in these incredible waters.
