About Your Trip

Get out there on the beautiful Columbia River and experience the thrill of fishing one of the best freshwater ecosystems in the Lower 48! This idyllic environment is still home to a major annual salmon run, and you'll be able to target trophy-sized King Salmon, alongside Steelhead and Sturgeon, on this epic trip.

Salmon and Steelhead are both great fighters that will really test your strength, stamina, and skills—so bring your A-game! These fish love
to hit fast-moving lures, so you'll use an active fishing style to draw bites.
If you want to target Sturgeon, you can also try bottomfishing techniques to attract these freshwater behemoths. Sturgeon are the largest freshwater fish in North America, and catching and releasing one should be on every angler's bucket list.

Captain Christian is a knowledgeable and experienced guide who will take you to the best spots on the river and provide you with all the necessary gear. His 24' boat is ultra-capable and is fully equipped for river fishing, with a 225 Yamaha outboard and a full suite of additional electronics and gear. As you make your way up the river, you'll be treated to breathtaking views of the surrounding landscape and wildlife, including bald eagles, ospreys, kingfishers, and more!

Whether you're a seasoned angler or a beginner, Captain Christian will provide a fun and memorable fishing experience. Don't miss out on this exciting charter fishing trip on the Columbia River!
