Columbia river fishing for Sturgeon,
Salmon, Shad and steelhead in Oregon and Washington.
The Columbia River is home to a huge population of White Sturgeon. The section below Bonneville Dam is a major spawning area for these giant fish. In the summer months we offer fishing trips for the giant sturgeon that come in from the Ocean to spawn in the Lower Columbia River. The Giant Sturgeon or Oversized sturgeon as we call them can reach lengths in excess of 12 feet and weigh over 1000 pounds. The big sturgeon are a match for any angler putting on quite a show with many jumps and line peeling runs. The Columbia is also home to millions
of smaller sturgeon and keeper sturgeon and is one of the only
places you can still catch and keep a sturgeon for the table. Keeper
sturgeon fishing is a blast and always provides lots of action.
Keeper fish are of a certain length that Columbia River salmon fishing is second to none. The river has runs of King Salmon in the Spring,
Summer and Fall months. The spring Chinook or Springer's as we call
them are the best eating salmon of all. The Fall Chinook and Spring
Chinook runs are the most popular and productive salmon runs as huge
numbers of wild salmon make there way up the river to the
spawning grounds. Coho Salmon or silver salmon also run in the fall The Columbia offers great river steelhead fishing, shad fishing and walleye fishing as well. Give us a call if you would like us
to guide your Columbia River fishing trip
