Fishing on the Columbia river has been awesome this year. We're catching a mix of coho and Chinook salmon.

I went out of Rainier with a couple of guys this morning. It was a fun morning. The fall fish are making their way up the Columbia.

The salmon get a bit spotty after setting in ice for a few hours. The number of fish over the falls continues to increase.
Fishing should pick up in the next week or so.
