Fishing in Whidbey Island

Anglers go fishing around Whidbey Island to cast their lines in some of the best spots in the Pacific Northwest. Located just 30 miles north of Seattle, the island has all the perks of Puget Sound, without the crowds. Lots of species targeted in this area are considered delicacies, which makes local captains’ “keep the catch” policy more exciting.

Salmon is on every angler’s wishlist and you can choose between Chinook, Coho, Pink, and Chum Salmon while fishing here. Each species has its own peak season, but all of them overlap in September. You can catch Salmon using various techniques – trolling, mooching, jigging, and fly fishing. Even if you only target Salmon, you’ll have the chance to learn many methods.

Lingcod, Flounder, and Rockfish are the usual bottom fishing targets. As a bonus, some guides add crabbing to the mix or take you to harvest Oysters and Clams. For these treats, summer is the best time to visit.

Most fishing guides in the area offer both private and shared trips. This means that you don’t have to miss out on an adventure just because your friends are busy! Gear is usually provided, you just need to pick up a WA fishing license ahead of time.

Trips in the area usually leave from Whidbey Island, Seattle, or Edmonds. Trips out of Edmonds will give you quicker access to the fishing grounds if you want to keep your time on the water short.

Whidbey Island – сезоны

Январь

The beginning of the year is all about Chinook Salmon. In January, Puget Sound is full of immature Chinooks, known as Blackmouths.

Февраль

In February, it’s best to troll for Coho and Chinook Salmon. If you want to try something unusual, target Squids at night.

Март

In March, fishing for Coho is better than going after Chinook. You can catch some Flounder but this is a slow month in general.

Апрель

April kicks-off the bottom fishing season but there’s still not a lot of action. You’ll have the most success by going after Flounder.

Май

Lingcod fishing explodes in May! With Flounder stock also being very high, this is a great time for bottom fishing.

Июнь

Go bottom fishing for Cabezon. This unusual, big-headed fish is probably like nothing you’ve seen so far.

Июль

Salmon season is about to kick-off, so make sure to book your spot on time. On top of that, crabbing is great.

Август

Salmon season is at its finest! Whether you troll for Chinook, Coho, Pink, or Chum, you’ll have a great time!

Сентябрь

Catch a few Salmon and top it all off with some Crabs. Cook them at the beach and enjoy this delicacy even more.

Октябрь

Trolling for Coho is still great but other Salmon species are harder to find. If you miss bottom fishing, go after Flounder.

Ноябрь

Chinook fishing is good in the southern part of Puget Sound. Coho Salmon are also possible on your trip but there aren’t that many of them.

Декабрь

Immature Chinook, also called Blackmouth, is the best target in December. For all bottom fishing enthusiasts, there’s always Flounder.

Check regulations on limits. Two fish is the limit. Assess whether a shorter trip than six hours is appropriate: we booked six hours, however only fished three because we had reached our limit, and the Guide was hesitant to continue catching and releasing, even though the hooks were barbless. as a guide myself, I totally understand this stance. Overall great trip.

The salmon moved around and so did we. The captain put us on top of bait balls. We caught our limit of coho within 1.5 hours. We did 1 more hour of C n R. We went on to fishing for flounder. The action was continuous.

Could just be the season but there was a ton of bait fish but also almost an infestation of dog sharks who would grab your bait before most salmon had a chance.

This is very convenient for those living in the Seattle-area, especially during the Coho run. Not even 10 minutes of sailing and you are on the fish. Very much worth it.

Captain Paul and his crew provided a memorable fishing experience for me and my two young sons. At first, the water was rough, the salmon weren’t biting, and our hopes were fading. But Captain Paul had an ace up his sleeve, pivoting us into flounder fishing. And we caught dozens! Thank you for a wonderful day of fishing.

Justin and his boat was great. He took us to several places but the fishing was really slow. We caught one salmon and the rest were small flounder, but overall a great trip. Maybe the fish will be biting better next time!!

We had a great day trip with Thao! The day started off chilly and rainy, but the rain stayed away! We worked hard and caught enough flounder for dinner! We also caught one wild salmon. We learned a lot and had a great time on the Puget Sound!

Despite being a little wet and cold out, we had a great morning hooking some salmon, flounder and even a rockfish! We only took one of our salmon home to enjoy later but between the three of us there was some consistent landing and Captain Dave knew exactly where to go to make sure we kept busy! Thanks for a great morning!!

We had a good time, but serious fishers may not like that mostly you are watching the captain fish,(troll) and sometimes he hands you the rod to pull in fish. He tended to pull them in himself if they felt small but I think the kids were bored enough that they would have been fine reeling in small fish too. I get the sense that this is just how it is done but that is something maybe groups should know.

Again, I thought the Capt was a bit gruff, but everyone one else in my party liked him. He put us on the fish and was attentive to our needs. I was happy at the end, and would recommend him in the future.

The most amazing trip with Matt. Very educational, laid back, and SO many fish. Catching salmon left and right in the middle of the sound with someone so welcoming and experienced as Matt made for the absolute coolest fishing experience. I would recommend this trip to anyone and everyone who is able!

My son and I went out with Captain Tao and I could not be more pleased. He was kind and patient with my 13yr old and the other 11 year old on the boat. He was always engaged and anticipating when we needed help. He was personable and made you feel like a long lost friend. He’s also very skilled at his craft and had us on the fish all day. This was a 5-star experience all around. Highly recommend!
