Fishing in Seattle

Seattle, Washington, stands as a premier fishing destination where the Pacific Northwest's rich marine ecosystems meet urban accessibility. Framed by the Olympic and Cascade mountain ranges, the region's waters—especially the biodiverse Puget Sound—offer world-class angling year-round. Salmon reign supreme here, with Chinook (King), Coho (Silver), Sockeye, and Chum salmon drawing anglers from across the globe. On odd-numbered years, Pink salmon surge through these waters in spectacular numbers. These powerful fish provide thrilling battles, whether trolling near Possession Bar or jigging around rocky reefs.

Beyond salmon, Seattle's fishing charters target prized bottom species like Lingcod and Halibut during their regulated seasons, along with Rockfish and flounder. Summertime peaks from July through August for mature salmon, while winter shifts focus to juvenile Chinook (Blackmouth). Opportunities extend to Lake Washington's freshwater havens, where perch, bass, and cutthroat trout thrive. Each trip blends potential trophy catches with panoramic views of Mount Rainier, the Seattle skyline, and frequent marine wildlife encounters—from porpoises to orcas. Whether navigating Puget Sound's currents or sheltered bays, a Seattle fishing charter delivers an unforgettable Pacific Northwest adventure.

Seattle Fishing Seasons

January

Ring in the new year with bragging rights after landing one of Seattle’s hardest fighters: winter “Blackmouth” Salmon. The peak season for this fish is just getting underway, so grab a hot cup of joe and have at it!

February

Temperatures hover between 38 and 51°F in February. Bundle up and head out on the water. If the Salmon are biting, chances are you’ll work up a sweat in no time.

March

Winter Chinook are still biting vigorously in early spring. For more variety, try your luck with Flounder and Squid or head to the lakes and rivers for Trout, Bass, and more.

April

Average temperatures are on the rise, reaching up to 59°F on a good day. Meanwhile, the winter Chinook season is winding down. Most years, Seattle’s Salmon are closed for harvesting by the end of the month.

May

Salmon may be off the menu in May, but some new opportunities are opening up. Lingcod open to harvest, joining Flounder just in time for the summer bottom fishing frenzy.

June

With average temperatures reaching as high as 70°F, it’s a great time to be out on the water. The season for Lingcod is short and sweet here in Seattle, usually closing half way through the month.

July

Chinook and Coho Salmon are back on the scene in Puget Sound, followed by Pink Salmon in odd years. Fishing for these prizes may only be catch and release, depending on the year and regulations.

August

You’ll find great fishing everywhere you turn in August. Hit the sound or test your fly fishing skills in the rivers. With only a few days of rain forecast, be sure to take advantage of this weather!

September

Coho Salmon reach their peak in September. Dungeness Crab is open to harvest until Labor Day, giving you all the more reason to see what’s biting at the bottom.

October

Coho Salmon are still biting in the sound, and you’ll start seeing Blackmouths toward the end of the month. The peak season for lake fishing has passed, but there’s still time to catch Salmon in the rivers.

November

Depending on the year, Salmon quotas may already fill up by November. If not, you’ll get the chance to reel in some juvenile Chinook. Otherwise, head out and fish for Flounder or set out the crab traps.

December

Seattle’s charter boats are still running at full throttle in winter. Those who can brave the cold can reel in Flatfish, or go crabbing. Even Salmon may be in the cards, if the season isn’t closed.
