About Your Trip

Join Captain Brock for a fully guided salmon trip targeting some of the Pacific Northwest’s most sought-after species. Depending on the season and conditions, you’ll have the opportunity to fish for Chinook and Coho salmon, with additional chances at steelhead, seabass, and even crab.

Trips take place across a range of productive waters including the Columbia and Willamette Rivers, with the flexibility to fish nearshore or slightly offshore (typically within 4–5 miles) when conditions line
up. Captain Brock adjusts each trip based on where the fish are holding, so you’re always fishing the most productive areas available.

You’ll be fishing aboard a 25’ Rogue with plenty of space for up to 6 anglers, fully equipped with all rods, reels, and tackle needed for the day.

Full day (8-hour) trips begin with a 6:00 AM pickup at a location selected the day prior based on current conditions, with lines in the water through the morning and early afternoon before wrapping up around 3:00 PM. Half day (6-hour) trips follow a similar plan, starting at 6:00 AM and fishing through noon before heading back in.

Expect to use a mix of trolling, jigging, and bottom fishing techniques with heavier tackle designed for salmon and other powerful fish. Captain Brock keeps things approachable and will guide you through the process, whether it’s your first time or you’ve done it before.

You’ll want to grab a valid fishing license and tags ahead of time, and bring along any snacks, drinks, and layers for changing coastal conditions. Pickup locations may vary day-to-day, and families are more than welcome—kids included.

These trips are built around flexibility and making the most of the conditions. Whether you’re chasing your first salmon or looking to put together a strong day on the water, Captain Brock will tailor the plan to give you the best shot.

Having that local knowledge has proven to catch fish while others are struggling. Guiding has been a dream of mine since high school when I was a bait boy on a charter boat the summer of my senior year. Since then, I told myself one day I'll have my own sled and continue to help people hook into that once-in-a-lifetime "King” Salmon or the elusive 10' Sturgeon.
