About Your Trip

Chase after Sturgeon with your pro-guide Scotty for the short season on the Columbia River. This is not your average fishing trip; you'll be chasing one of the biggest freshwater fish in North America. These "dinosaurs" are huge fighters and are a truly unique species that should be on every angler's hit list. The season is short though! Book you trip now to secure your date!

Scotty is an expert when it comes to the Columbia River and surrounding tributaries, so he'll guide you to the best spots. You'll use a variety of lures and bait, depending on the target species, the weather, and the water conditions, but regardless, when that fish is on, get ready for a fight! Sturgeon—which can be six feet long and more than 200 pounds—will tear the line off a reel during a run, and will never clear the water trying to toss the hook.

Please be sure to bring your Washington State fishing license, rain gear, water proof boots, proper clothing (Scotty recommends layering)

Independent Guide
Scotty is a WA State native who has been fishing the rivers and streams of Washington State for over 30 years.

As an "addicted" sport fisherman he has spent countless hours both professionally and recreationally on the water learning/perfecting his craft.

A large portion of his time was spent fishing from the banks of rivers there in Washington. Over the years of catching his fill of Salmon, Steelhead, and Sturgeon, the sport has somewhat changed for Scotty... Instead of being obsessed with his own next trophy (which would be hard to beat anyway), he is now obsessed with sharing the sport he loves and success he has acheived with the men, women, children, and avid outdoorsmen in general that make up his client base. Nothing gives him greater pleasure now than to be netting a fish and experiencing his clients excitement as they catch another great fish!

His oath to you as a prospective client is to make sure you have fun first and fish second. There is nobody in this business that will work harder for your success as an angler than Scotty will!!
