Peninsula Sportsman has been a Port Townsend charter, guide, and lodging company since 1999, run by Captain Dave Drewry and Tiffany Drewry out of Washington’s North Olympic Peninsula. The business combines private fishing and crabbing charters with vacation cabin lodging, giving visitors a full package built around the waters surrounding Port Townsend and Protection Island National Wildlife Refuge.

Saltwater charters departing from the private marina in Discovery Bay or the Port Townsend Boat Haven specialize in light tackle fishing for lingcod and other reef-dwelling bottomfish, along with inshore opportunities for flounder and rock sole. During July and August, Peninsula Sportsman runs a family-friendly half-day crabbing and bottomfishing charter targeting Dungeness and rock crab, cabezon, greenling, sculpin, and flatfish, with shrimping and clamming excursions also available in season. Every charter includes all necessary tackle, rain gear if needed, and custom filleting, cleaning, and packaging of the catch, along with crab cooking, so guests head home with a fresh seafood dinner ready to go.

Trips run aboard the Siwash, a fully equipped custom 22-foot aluminum Lee Shore charter boat built for a safe, stable ride, with USCG certified captains leading each excursion. Charters are private, meaning groups aren’t combined with other parties, and are currently limited to a three-person maximum with a half-day format running approximately four hours.

For those looking to extend their stay, Peninsula Sportsman also operates The Cabins at Treefrog Woods, private cedar vacation cabins near Port Townsend’s historic waterfront, giving guests a cozy home base after a day on the water or out sea duck hunting on the Olympic Peninsula. The business’s fishing charters for the current season are being offered exclusively to cabin lodging guests as part of a combined stay, rather than sold as standalone trips.

For visitors looking to combine private bottomfishing, crabbing, or shrimping with a Port Townsend cabin getaway, Peninsula Sportsman offers a personalized, family-run experience on Washington’s North Olympic Peninsula.
