My young daughter and I had a wonderful time out on Puget Sound with Captain Wayne on the Wiley Dog. The experience was a Father’s Day gift from my family and it was a blast. Wayne was communicative about logistics leading up to the trip and was so kind and thoughtful in his accommodating my daughter’s many questions and curiosities (mine too!). Would definitely book another trip with him and recommend him for both new and experienced charter bookers.

Went fishing with Wayne for two days.  One for Salmon and the next for Lingcod.  Unfortunately its called fishing and not catching, but not due to Wayne trying.  We fished and area and when we were not successful he would try another with us.  He is patient and has a ton of knowledge of the area.  If coming to the area to fish again I would check to see if any dates with him are available.

I’m a long time Tacoman who has never had luck catching kings on my own.  Wayne got me and my brother-in-law on fish and we both limited with our first-ever Commmencement Bay kings.  Wayne is soft spoken, easy going ans very kind.  He freely shared his tips for fishing and was engaged throughout the day without being bossy or overbearing.  I definitely hope to fish with him again.

coho king dogfish and flounder. soothing experience. we cut the salmon and enjoyed the fight. Captain was very calm and patient captain is a very chill. Easy to talk to person. Best friend anyone that enjoys a relaxing trip out at sea. Make sure to bring a snack.  Bring warm clothes.

Wayne was an excellent host and captain!  Loved this family time and enjoyed catching fish.  We don’t know how to fish so doing this charter with Wayne was perfect!  Thanks for the great memories and laughs!
