    Half Day Trip with Captain CHris

    3/4 Day Trip - Shared on August 21, 2026

    Had a great time fishing with Captain Chris. We got a shared trip, but it happened to just be us that morning, so it was a private experience. We got out there pretty early and there were already a lot of boats out there, but Captain Chris knew what he was doing and we hit our limit of two each pretty quickly. Chir was great to talk to. We spent a little more time trying to catch a fish for Chris and didn’t find any keepers for him, but we still had a great time!

    Book With Chris

    3/4 Day Trip - Shared on July 26, 2025 • 2 adults

    First time in Seattle wanted to catch a Salmon and Chris made it happen. Beautiful day and beautiful catch and release wild salmon. Chris is extremely knowledgeable, takes safety and regulations seriously, is kind, and hilarious. Nothing better than a day on the water with a great captain, will definitely be booking with Chris again sometime soon looking for some more Salmon. The area and the lifecycle are so fascinating, can’t miss adventure if you enjoy fishing.

    3/4 Day Trip - Shared on August 28, 2025 • 3 adults

    We had a terrific day with Captain Chris and we all caught our Salmon limits. Perfect weather and really calm waters and very interesting great conversations with Chris. We put the filets in the freezer back at our hotel right away and are now prepping for a great salmon dinner tonight. Beats the heck out of getting skunked and going to Sizzler! We will be back Chris!

    He put us on the fish!

    3/4 Day Trip - Shared on August 31, 2025 • 2 adults • 1 child

    I was with my son and there was another group of three. Chris put us on the fish at we had 17 fish on online but only managed to get 9 fish onboard. He was patient and never got frustrated. There were 30 other boats in the area fishing. It seemed like we got the most fish.

    5 star silver slaying

    3/4 Day Trip - Private on August 23, 2024 • 4 adults

    5 star day with 4 limits before 10 am. Chris knew where the fish were and didn't waste any time sending the lures down or getting the fish in the boat. Communicated well and kept everyone involved. When the fish took a little break, Chris was easy to converse with and made the trip a memory that will last for a long time. Highly recommend giving him a call and booking a trip.

If you are looking for an unforgettable fishing trip, book with Big King Salmon Charters right now. Captain Chris made the entire experience an absolute blast from start to finish. He is incredibly knowledgeable, patient, and knows exactly where to find the fish. He kept the energy high, shared great tips, and made sure everyone on the boat was having a great time. The boat was clean, the gear was top-notch, and the fishing action was non-stop. We came home with an amazing catch and fantastic memories. Thanks to Captain Chris for a phenomenal day. We will definitely be back!
