Captain Jarrid started as a deckhand when he was 

10 years old working with Bill Walsh aboard 

the El Matador for 9 years. 

He then went to Dutch Harbor Alaska and commercially fished crab in the Bering Sea for 11 years. When he started in Alaska he worked his way from processor to deck boss, where he was also night driver/1st mate.

He took about 10 years off from fishing and explored different avenues until he decided to get back into the industry of fishing, which is his true passion. 

He then took a job aboard a 181 foot commercial crabber in Argentina where he was for about 5 years.

After that he returned to start charter fishing

out of Westport for various charters and has been

 doing that until he decided to purchase

his own charter boat in 2021.

Over the last few years, he also had the pleasure of running the Rachel Carlson/University of Washington biology/scientific research boat as time allowed. 

He has many years of experience charter fishing and has been around boats all of his life, including owning 

his own pleasure/fishing boats. 

He has had a 100 ton Captain’s license 

for the last 10 years.  

Jarrid likes to laugh and have fun 

so be prepared to have a good time!  

Crew - TBD!

 You will be on a guided charter boat fishing trip out of Westport, WA for salmon, halibut, lingcod, bottom fish or tuna. 

What you fish for is dependent on what season it is. 

Fishing begins in March and goes through September.  

We will do our best and hope that you catch a lot of fish 

but we cannot guarantee that - 

that's why they call it fishing and not catching!  

We do know that you will have a fun trip no matter what and a bad day fishing is better than a good day working!

Fishing license

Rubber boots and not tennis shoes or flip flops - 

this allows your deckhand to spray down the deck without getting your shoes/feet wet!

Warm clothing and/or rain gear

Bring lunch/snacks/drinks to

last a 6 to 12 hour fishing trip

Large coolers as room is limited. 

Soft coolers are ok.

Tips about TIPS for your deckhand!

Please expect to pay a 20% gratuity to your deckhand.  

They work long and hard hours  to ensure you have the best trip.  

If you feel that 20% is too much please bring this to the

 Captain's attention so we can ensure that next time 

our deckhand meets your expectations.
