About Your Trip

If you're looking to tangle with some of America's most impressive inland sportfish, Columbia River King and Silver Salmon should be at the top of your list! These fast, powerful fish are terrific fighters who'll take even experienced anglers for a ride, and they're one of the best-eating fish anywhere. Ask Captain Jeff about his favorite recipes!

On this trip you'll target the Salmon as they head upriver to spawn. They're at the hungriest when they enter the rivermouth, and will whack a wide variety of lures and baits. You can expect big topwater takes, plus tons of bites from the middle of the water column as well.

Captain Jeff runs these epic trips aboard a 26' Alumaweld skiff—a fast, manueverable boat that's ideal for river fishing! She sports a 200-HP Mercury outboard to keep you moving, and has room for up to six anglers! The fish are running-what are you waiting for?

Each trip's price is determined by the guide and reflects all associated costs. A significant factor in pricing is often the type of boat and the corresponding fuel expenses.

After booking your trip, we'll connect you directly with your guide to discuss additional details. In the meantime, our team is here to answer any questions via email, text, or phone.
