What would you recommend to anglers fishing in Edmonds, Washington for the first time?

Parking next to the dock. Bottled Water is provided on the boat. Bring snacks and any drinks you may want. Bring binoculars to see porpoise and maybe a whale or orca. Bring your cooler for your catch to take home which the captain will fillet on the boat heading back to the dock.

First time here, this season looked like the King were leaving and the Coho coming in late July. Numbers at the locks for Kings were relatively low and Coho was all over the place. Really can’t go wrong but wanting to try to come back in a year with a lot of Pinks or August/September and try for some Coho.

with the cost of charter fishing for half day at $1,125 I will recommend spending that money at something a lot more interactive fun. We spent 5 hours basically sitting on an ice cooler there were no seats they were no food they would no drinks and worst of all there no fish.

Could be farther from the desired fishing destination, if going to MA10 from Edmonds. It's about a 25 minute ride.

The mornings are apparently better but I would not book a noon trip at this time of year.

Just missed the King Salmon season, but both were active in August. It's a good time to get on the water due to less chance of rain this time of year

Be prepared to have room on your plate, fridge, smoker or freezer, because the salmon fishing gets hot as September gets closer.

Bring drinks and snacks as most of the time you’ll just be waiting for the fish to bite the line.
