Coastal success recently chinook and coho fishing. Fishing continues to remain steady and should through the remainder of the month. With rainfall the fish will move up river and we will potentially change techniques but should still see some good fishing.

Fishing in Astoria Oregon on the ocean and lower Columbia River. River trophy sturgeon is on and the fishing is great. Lots of big fish. This is a ton of action and fish average 5' and close to a 100lbs. Catch and release Salmon is open in the ocean. Lots of fish showing up. Pic of nice chinook today. Both coho and chinook are available. It'll stay steady and just get better.

Lots of fun left to be had winter steelhead fishing. With rain in the forecast, we should see a fresh push of fish. We also have some spring chinooks starting to show up in our rivers. So be sure to get out this spring for some of the best-tasting salmon...

The family had a great time with Rod. He got us on plenty of crab and was very helpful and friendly with my kids. I would highly recommend Rod as a captain!

My dad and I took an 8 hour guided trip on the Willamette. Ken is very knowledgeable, friendly, professional and prepared. His equipment is all impressive and well maintained, he carefully explained safety procedures, he also happily shared a lot of valuable information with us about future fishing endeavors. We caught a 20 inch “15 lb” silver salmon. We will definitely book another trip with him, likely for springers!

Trip: Willamette River Fishing
★★★★★
Our crabbing trip exceeded my expectations. Craig's boat had comfortable seats. He offered us high quality lightweight life jackets (the blow-up kind). He told us the ocean was relatively calm and asked if we wanted to leave the bay and go out there. We did. He instructed us how to drop the crab pots, then entertained us (and our 4-year-old granddaughter) while we waited before checking the pots. We saw sea lions on a buoy; saw hundreds of jellyfish; learned about air bladders on fish like canary rockfish. our granddaughter got to view the radar screen showing where fish were. A first for any of our family: We caught our limit of crab, which Craig worked with my two sons to clean and cook for us. I felt completely safe with Craig. He is very knowledgeable and responsible; answered all my questions ahead of time. A wonderful, memorable day, well worth setting out before dawn.

We had an absolute blast with Captain Kelly. We were all new to Salmon wishing and Kelly took care of it all from bait to fillet. He treated us with respect and did not hesitate when we ended the trip early so we could use the restroom. My mom, girlfriend and I had fish for months by the end of our trip.

When I moved to Oregon from Chicago 3 years ago, one of the “must do’s” was catch my first fish. Thanks to the instruction and encouragement from Captain Bryan, the fruits of this Labor Day trip resulted in reeling in a 17 lb salmon. I was thrilled. Our final cache for the day-one super salmon and 17 crab. Highly recommend this trip for to beauty of the bay, peek at the ocean, and a great combination of fishing and crabbing. We’ve already planned an ocean Coho trip on return. Captain Bryan was the perfect combination of encouraging, entertaining, and an excellent teacher. Counting the days until we can do it again!

Couldn’t ask for anything more. Captain Rod worked out trip around the weather and accommodated an extra person. Super knowledgeable and willing to educate us about everything we encountered during our charter with him. He knew exactly how and where to target salmon and we limited out! We will return and we will definitely request Rod for our guide. Highly recommend using Captain Rod for a successful, enjoyable and entertaining adventure!
