The Columbia River king and silver fishing is amazing and the sturgeon fishing can’t get any better!! I told the clients after we get our salmon we will go catch some sturgeon. In our 1st four minutes we missed two and then landed a 60”. Two minutes after landing the 60”er we hooked one about 12’ long and way over 200lbs. After an hour and 3 rotation fighting it we managed to get it to the boat. What a great day. I still have openings available. 916-826-3600

The King salmon fish on the Columbia River has been so good the regulations just changed yesterday. I’ll be able to fish for Kings until the end of October now. I still have days available so book a day or two before it’s over. Lately I’ve been doing salmon/sturgeon combos because both are so good. 916-826-3600

The Columbia River salmon and sturgeon fishing is amazing right now. Lots of doubles and even 2 triples on King salmon last time out. We even fished for sturgeon a few hours while waiting for tide to be right for salmon. Hooked and landed a bunch of huge sturgeon. A fisherman’s paradise!!

This picture says a million words. Ralph has been a client for over 30 years. He came up to Oregon for 3 weeks to fish with me. With the salmon season being closed again he made the drive up. He had such a good time catching salmon like we use to in California that next year he is going to stay for a month.

Salmon fishing is off to a great start on the Columbia River. I’ve been fishing lately out of Rainier Oregon. It feels so good to be catching big bright kings here. After 37 years of Guiding in California for salmon I made the move to Oregon because of the terrible management and 2nd year of closures. Now I’m back to doing what I love to do in a new and beautiful location. To all my clients in California and new clients in Oregon I’m looking forward to making more great memories.

King Salmon season opens Today August 1st. I'll be starting on the lower Columbia river. This area is also known as Buoy 10 in Astoria Oregon. Once the Kings start pushing up the river, I will follow them up the river. I will be trolling with 360 flashers with many different lure combinations. Some of my favorites are spinners and spinfish.
