GUIDES

Captain Dave

A true Washington native and Ballard local, Captain Dave has spent most of his life fishing the emerald waters of Puget Sound. A licensed U.S. Coast Guard Captain and CPR certified, he keeps a tight, clean ship. Licensed by the Washington Department of Fish and Wildlife to operate salmon fishing charters and a member of the National Association of Charterboat Operators, his passion, attention to detail, deep knowledge of tides and currents, and legendary storytelling make for an unforgettable fishing adventure.

When he’s not on the water, you might spot him snowboarding, Spey casting for steelhead, or even fishing the Sound on his days off.
