This is a water elevator that allows boats to move from Luger sound and into fresh water which becomes lake Washington. For all of you deadliest catch fans this is where 90 percent of the shows boats and crew come after the Alaska crab season is over. Sig Hansen captain deadliest catch, is often seen around Ballard. During the salmon months jun-oct you will be able to see the salmon traveling up the fish ladder always an amazing site

Justin Wong is the captain and owner he is one of the most knowledgeable salmon fisherman in the northwest I highly recommend if you are here from June to end of September try and get out and fish with him. Fishing is very close and the puget sound is very calm water and has one of the largest salmon runs in the world. Also high chances of seeing orcas! If you do fish and want any help packaging fish or recipe to cook please reach out and I will be glad to help
