Seattle Lingcod Bounty
Seattle fishing charters on Puget Sound
What’s it like fishing on Puget sound waters so close to the City of Seattle? One of the best things about Puget Sound is that you’re protected from the swells and rough seas of the open ocean. You can enjoy your fishing charter and focus on the beauty of this area without having to worry about turbulent seas ruining your day.
The views on Puget Sound can be spectacular. To the west are the snow-capped Olympic Mountain Range, and to the east, the Cascades. Beyond Seattle lies Mount Rainier and Mount Baker which can be seen on bright, clear days.
Puget Sound Orca Whale
Puget Sound contains an abundance of wildlife beyond fish. Chances are good that you will see some, if not many of the following on your fishing charter: Harbor Seals, Sea Lions, Porpoise, all sorts of sea birds taking turns diving on baitfish that are being pursued by schools of salmon. Even the occasional Bald Eagle has been known to swoop in and grab a fish now and then. Depending on the time of year, your fishing charter may spot Grey Whales, Humpback Whales or even Orcas (Killer Whales).
These are some of the reasons we love where we live and why we enjoy our profession as charter guides. Getting to meet new people and having the opportunity to share in the beauty that is Puget Sound, it’s our favorite part of the job.
Seattle fishing charters for salmon
Seattle Fishing
In Puget Sound, we are blessed with moderate conditions that allow us to fish 12 months a year. Most of that time is spent fishing for salmon and our professional captains have decades of experience that give you the best opportunity to catch these beautiful and tasty fish. Our boats are set up with the latest electronics and tackle to maximize your fishing experience. Our technique of downrigger trolling is far and away the most effective method of catching salmon in the local waters and our captains are more than happy to share that knowledge with you. You’ll learn how we set up the fishing tackle, integrate the use of electronics and how we use the local tides to predict where the salmon are most likely to be on your trip. Regardless if you are an experienced angler or this is your first time ever fishing, our captains will do everything in their power to make sure you have a trip that will leave you with memories that last a lifetime.
- King salmon are the largest of all salmon species and we have 2 distinct seasons in which to catch these fish:
- Summer King Salmon fishing runs during the months of July and August as the mature fish return from the Pacific Ocean and head to their rivers of origin to spawn. These king salmon are the largest we encounter during the year and will occasionally exceed 20 pounds. They have a very firm tasty flesh that is second to none on the dinner table. Summer Kings are known for long powerful runs and battles that can test even the most experienced angler.
- Winter King Salmon fishing typically starts in November and runs through April. These fish, locally known as “blackmouth” or “winter kings” are juvenile king salmon that feed in Puget Sound most of their life. They are well known for their flavor and tendency to be more consistent feeders than their mature cousins in the summer. You are likely to encounter winter kings in the 4-10-pound range though bigger fish are occasionally caught.

Seattle King Salmon
“You can catch one of these”
- Coho salmon fishing typically starts in early July and runs well into October. These fish, which range in size from 3-12 pounds, are known for their acrobatic fighting style on the surface. Unlike their larger king salmon relatives, these fish are more prone to schooling and it is not uncommon to hook more than one fish at the same time. Like the king salmon, this species has a firm tasty flesh that is great on the dinner table.
- Pink salmon, chum salmon, and sockeye salmon also run in Seattle’s waters, and at certain times of the year, your fishing charter will focus on these species. Pinks, also known as “Humpy” salmon, only run on odd number years in Puget Sound. They are the most numerous of the salmon species and make for a great fishing charter, especially for groups with children or novice fishermen. The flesh of the Pink salmon is more tender than other species but when properly cared for by your captain, make excellent table fare and great smoked salmon due to their high oil content.
Seattle bottom fishing charters
Bottom Fishing Opportunities All Star Fishing Charters can offer:
Lingcod fishing in Puget Sound takes place during the months of May and the first half of June when our local salmon seasons are closed. These meaty fish with large toothy heads aren’t going to win any beauty contests, but they put up a terrific fight and are one of the best eating fish in the ocean. Their flaky, firm white flesh can be grilled, sautéed or fried, and some people even call it “poor man’s lobster,” when prepared to mimic the clawed crustacean.
Your captain will use several techniques to catch lingcod on your Seattle fishing charter, from you catching your own live bait to using special lures depending on the conditions and what they’re eating on that day.
Seattle Flounder Fishing (Pacific Sand Dab)
“Millions carpet bottom of Puget Sound”
Flounder fishing near Seattle targeting Pacific Sand Dabs:
Want fun fast fishing? Flounder fishing from April thru October can provide a great time for kids and adults looking for quick and easy action. It is not uncommon to get a bite nearly every time you bait hits the bottom once the schools of fish are located.
Pacific Sand Dabs are the most abundant bottom fish in Puget Sound. Sand Dabs are a small Flounder species that live on the bottom and migrate into the sandy shallow sand bars of Puget Sound during the spring and summer months. Pacific Sand Dabs though small, are very plentiful and easy to catch during the warmer months. Sand Dabs have a flaky white meat that many people enjoy. They can be cooked in many different methods, from steaming them whole to deep frying the fillets.
Dungeness crab fishing is also possible during certain periods of the year as the seasons allow. Abundant in local waters, “Dungies” as they are known, possess a delicate, sweet flesh that most folks love. Dungeness crab fishing is a “hands on” fishery that lets you assist in the setting and retrieval of the gear. If you would like to fish for crab on your charter, let us know at time of booking.
