The fishing was at least as good as we hoped.ย In an hour we were fortunate enough to catch all of our limits in coho, with nice quality fish.ย The gear was top notch and the boat was new and comfortable.ย The location was beautiful and the weather was a bonus.ย Most of that was a function of being in the right general area with nature cooperating.ย The genius of the captain was not following the 300 boats sitting over the fish but staying further west pursuing active fish. Yes we saw others make the occasional catch but we had 3 doubles in an hour and were constantly catching fish.ย After we completed our limit the fisherman in the boat requested another species to target and he made the changes.ย He was pleasant and knowledgeable.ย Thank you.ย Good luck with your choices and tight lines.

We did a private morning trip for four people.ย The captain did a great job of working to get us on fish (We caught and released a decent number of Chinooks but never caught any Cohos.).ย Very nice boat and excellent equipment.ย The captain explained the fishing methods well and talked about the resource (the fish and Puget Sound in general) so we all learned quite a bit.ย Very enjoyable trip with great scenery.
Excellent trip. Whole family enjoyed and younger son even caught a shark and a chinook.ย Captain is a true professional with a wealth of information - will be back in near future.
Everyone in our family of five enjoyed munching for salmon. We caught 7 and reeled in multiple sharks,ย one chinook and the coho got away.ย The captain was very knowledgeable and kept us busy fishing in multiple areas.ย Super fun and plan to fish again.
