VENTURE CHARTERS

Charter Boat "Joker"  

SEATTLE'S LARGEST FISHING CHARTERBOAT

We will be back for our 12th season at John Wayne Marina in Sequim for 2012 !

AND WE ARE BOOKING!!

First come first serve for best tides.

Why fish Sequim?

Our boats are larger than most and in calmer waters.  Sequim is only a few miles from the fishing grounds.  This means less cancellations due to high seas 6ft+. Also better prices with only a 13 day season*.

From Sequim we even have protected waters we can fish when you can't get out from other ports.

Small boats are really slow in 8ft seas 

 Now we offer discounted afternoon trips so you dont have to stay the night before.

Sequim is less than 60 miles from the half hour ferry rides of Seattle/Bainbridge or Edmonds/Kingston

We welcome back Venture

and Capt. Frank Rusk

And watch Capt. Randy on the Joker or an article courtesy of  Peninsula Daily News.

Joker morning $165 PP or all 6 spots private $885

Afternoon $140 PP $785 private full boat

Venture morning $165 PP all 5 spots private $750

Afternoon $140 PP all 5 spots private $650 

We don't run for hours getting to the good spots! 

We do not allow people to bring thier GPS on board.

Sequim is one of the closest locations for effective halibut fishing in milder waters. Admiralty Inlet occasionally gets halibut, but the Straights are more productive. Larger and fewer is what it's known for.

Even Canada rules have changed to 1 halibut per person per day.
Why not make it a BIG one?

We run a 7th pole (NON PRIVATE CHARTERS) on Joker when the tides and the currents permit for the deckhand.  Fish caught on this pole is divided among the people that possibly did not catch one.

* WDFW predicts Thur. Fri. Sat. in May*
