Seattle Fishing with A Spot Tail Salmon Guide

A Memorable, Hands-On Fishing Experience on Seattle’s Puget Sound

Whether you’ve got years of salmon fishing experience or you’ve never held a fishing pole, A Spot Tail Salmon Guide offers an unparalleled experience. Captain Keith Robbins has been fishing on the Puget Sound for nearly 30 years. That means from the best places to cast your fly, to great spots for beginners to bottom fish, to picturesque views for sightseeing and sea burials, he knows where to take you. Unlike most fishing charters, we provide each angler with their own rod and teach an active approach that lets you feel the pull of a bite and reel in your own catch. Our speciality is mooching for salmon on private and group tours. We also offer fly fishing, bottom fishing, sightseeing tours and sea burials. Located less than 7 miles north of downtown Seattle, you won’t find a fishing charter closer to the city center. The best way to experience the Puget Sound is from the water, so plan your nautical adventure today.

“…We all agreed that a day on the water rarely comes in such a fine form. Your professionalism, instructional methods, and company as a person and a fisherman were enjoyed by all… I look forward to future outings on your vessel.”

Peter Walker

“Salmon fishing with Captain Keith was the best experience we have had on the Puget Sound. My two sons (9 and 5) brother and father had a blast and were all on fish. Could not have picked a better guide or location. Highly recommended.”

Mark M.

“Keith is the man! He was able to teach a beginner like me how to catch some salmon on the Sound. Very patient after I messed up my line over and over again and very good at finding fish to catch… everybody on board caught one! …”

Jamey S.

“…Just a short note of thanks for an unbelievable day of fishing… it was truly a pleasure to be on board a boat so well outfitted and organized… You run a very good operation. We appreciate very much your generosity and thoughtfulness…”

Sid W. Eland, Jr.

“Our captain, Keith, was a patient and knowledgeable teacher, sharing with those on board the nuances to mooching for salmon… A nice bonus was that we saw a humpback whale, porpoises, sea lions, and tons of birds. It was amazing.”
