Great Experience

My 13-year-old son and I had a terrific experience with Captain Dave. We are by no means experienced fisherman and caught a ton of fish. It is obvious that Captain Dave has a great deal of knowledge and experience in the area. We will absolutely book with Captain Dave again in the future.

Had a Blast!

Had a blast! Our guide was amazing, caught a lot of fish, and learned a ton not just about fishing but history of the area as well! 10/10 would recommend

Good Trip!

David got us on plenty of fish. Much better experience mooching than just trolling. We got our limit on coho, caught and released plenty of sharks, and caught a very nice chinook.

Great Trip!

My 11 year old and I had a blast! Coming from Texas, we didn't know what to expect. I chose Capt Dave because I wanted my son to learn different techniques on how to fish, and not just troll fishing. Capt Dave was very clear and patient with my son. We caught all morning long! Capt stayed on the fish the whole time. Would definitely recommend and would definitely book again! Thanks, Capt Dave for the trip of a lifetime!

Best Memories ever

Captain Dave gave our family one of the best memories ever! He was able to accommodate my father with a Parkinson disability and 4 others at the same time! The fish were biting and he was busy making sure everyone was attended and able to fish easily. My sister caught the big fish of the day giving her the bragging rights which she has had fun with. You will have a great experience with Wind Knot Salmon Guides!

Wow!

The fishing itself was very good. Lots of fish and good weather combined for a very good start. The knowledge of our experienced captain/guide turned the good ingredients into great. We had multiple opportunities to catch the silvers and with several double hookups and very little wait time between strikes we were limited out quickly.
Throughout the beautiful morning, he shared his knowledge of the area, the Puget sound and the history that led to our fishing opportunities. He is a kind and good man with integrity and lots of fishing expertise. A great choice for our family!!
