It was a good day on the river. We got this 14lb Up River Bright early in the day. It was a beautiful sunny day on the river and the clients were great to fish with.

Good morning guys! We had a really fun day on the Columbia River today. Released a really nice native Chinook and got our hatchery limit all before 8:30 this morning.

Spring chinook have started to show up in the local rivers around Portland. Targeting them with trolling tactics has begun to work well. A herring behind a flasher works well. Fishing will continue to improve for these amazing fish over the next few weeks and coming months.

We were given a one day keeper sturgeon on February 16th. Had a great crew out and they will be going home with some sturgeon. I'm not sure when or if we will get another keeper day this year. But we can always catch and release these fun hard fighting...

    Ken is amazing! He got us on fish and we had a great time! Ken knows how to fish the Columbia and the Willamette. I will definitely be chartering with him again! He taught my son how to filet the fish we caught and my son loved it! My son had the best 18th birthday!

    This was our 2nd time using Wade. He is a wonderful guide and got us on the sturgeon. Our group had an amazing time and we can't wait to book our next trip with Captain Wade!

    Trip: Sturgeon Fishing

  • ★★★★★
    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!
