All Star Fishing Charters is a top-rated fishing charter service based in Seattle, Washington, offering exciting salmon fishing on the waters of Puget Sound. Known for their laid-back yet professional approach, they make fishing accessible to everyone, whether it’s someone holding a rod for the first time or someone who knows their way around a reel. With trips running year-round, there’s always something biting. King Salmon, also called Chinook, are around in the summer from July through August and again in winter from November through April. Coho show up strong from July through October, and Pink Salmon flood in every other year, like clockwork, on the odd-numbered ones. In spring, Lingcod heat up the action in May and early June. Sand Dabs and Flounder hang out from April through October, and Dungeness Crab can be part of the haul too, depending on the season. Every trip includes all the gear, bait, and tackle you need, and even covers fish cleaning and bagging—just bring yourself and a sense of adventure.

The crew at All Star Fishing Charters has decades of water time under their belts. Captain Gary Krein, who grew up on a farm in Montana, found his calling in the salty waters of the Pacific Northwest. Fishing the Sound for more than fifty years and running charters since 1984, Gary’s knowledge of the local waters is as deep as his commitment to preserving them. Captain Nick Kester got hooked early, fishing with his grandfather at age two. He met Gary back in the ’80s as a deckhand and eventually became a full-time captain in 2003. With a mix of Alaska fishing and Puget Sound roots, he brings energy to every trip and thrives on the stories made each day—whether it’s a first salmon or spotting whales up close. Captain Erik Boston rounds out the team, bringing over 30 years of fishing know-how and a reputation for keeping things upbeat and positive on deck. His goal is to carry on the traditions that make a day on the water feel like a real break from the everyday.

They offer several types of charters to fit how people want to fish. The shared morning charter is perfect for individuals or pairs who want to join others and fish without booking a private boat. At $295 per person with a minimum of two people and a max of six, it’s a popular way to get out on the water. Those wanting the boat to themselves can book a private morning charter for a more flexible trip with their group. And if getting up at the crack of dawn doesn’t sound fun, the private mid-day charter offers the same great fishing with a later start and a bit more value.

The fleet is made up of Coast Guard-certified boats that are clean, comfortable, and purpose-built for fishing Puget Sound. These boats are designed to handle up to six people, which is the legal limit for this type of charter. Outfitted with top-quality Shimano rods and reels, Cannon Mag 20 electric downriggers for trolling, and electronics like Lowrance GPS and fish finders, the boats are ready for action. Safety gear is fully stocked, and if anyone forgets to buy a fishing license ahead of time, they’ve got those covered on board too. These boats strike the right balance between comfort and serious fishing capability, whether you’re targeting salmon up top or bottom fishing for lingcod.

Ready to reel in something memorable? Head over to the All Star Fishing Charters website and lock in your day on Puget Sound with some of the most experienced and passionate captains on the water. Whether you’re chasing your first salmon or looking to hook into a real trophy, this is where the stories begin.
