Our charter started off meeting Matt at the end of the pier. There was a large sign out which made it incredibly easy to know where to go. The boar is in a covered location so it was comfortable and easy getting inside- especially for someone as accident prone as I am. We were able to catch 8 salmon in total- but would have limited out if we lose so many (our skill issue). Matt was great about giving us pointers as far as our reeling techniques and answered any questions about salmon types, legalities of fishing, and making sure our catch cards were filled properly. When we got back to the boat launch Matt fileted the fish and gave some to Lucy and her kids-adorable seals. It was the perfect first experience.
We booked this charter hoping to give our boys a fun, memorable fishing trip—and it absolutely delivered. The weather was perfect, with calm waters, a gorgeous view of the Seattle coastline, and even sightings of porpoises, jumping salmon, and sea hawks. Our guide worked hard to get us on fish, and he did—1 coho and 10 pink salmon (plus a king salmon we released because it was out of season). The boys loved every minute, from reeling in their fish to bringing home a cooler full of fresh salmon. We left with great memories, beautiful photos, and enough fish for several meals. Highly recommend for anyone wanting a successful day on the water in the Puget Sound. Thanks Matt!
Matt’s always a great guide to go fishing with no matter what the end result. Didn’t catch any Lings today, but had a great adventure. Highlights: epic weather, good conversations, good company, beautiful views and more! Future guests should always prepare for any weather conditions (rain, wind, waves, sun) and to remember this phrase “fishing is fishing - nothing is ever guaranteed.” Just enjoy your trip!
Thank you for taking the boys out on a fishing trip! A nice time was had and Captain Matt was awesome, friendly, accommodating and took care of everyone! Recommend the trip for anyone that wants to catch fish with a great Captain!
