When it comes to salmon fishing, the Columbia River is hard to beat! Starting the first part of august, three hundred thousand salmon begin their migration up river, and if you really want to catch a salmon, this is the place to be!

What's In a Name? Everything! Come join me, the "Salmon Master" as we pursue this incredible run of Salmon on the Columbia River! We start fishing the crack of dawn, or even a little before. We'll be trolling with cut-plug herring and when the Salmon take this bait, its not a nibble, its an all out attack! Peak season for this popular Columbia River fishery is from about the 10th of August until the first week in September. If you are interested in this type of fishing, get your reservations in early, it's a very busy time of year!

Salmon on the Columbia River: August through September Peak Season is Aug 10th thru Sept 10th

Salmon at Nehalem Bay: July through November Peak Seasons for the Summer Run: July 10th thru July 30th Peak Seasons for the Fall Run: September 10th thru October 30th

Sturgeon on the Columbia River: March through August Peak Season is May thru August

Nehalem Bay is plain and simply a very beautiful, fun place to fish! It's a small, well-protected bay, surrounded by coast range mountains, and green rolling hills. Eagles, Elk, and all kinds of waterfowl are seen around the bay. There are two runs of salmon in Nehalem Bay, a summer run, that start right around the fourth of July, and slows down a little around the first week in august .The fall run is right on its heels, starting the last of August and running into November. These fish average 25 to 30 pounds, with many fish hitting the 40 and 50 pound mark each year. There's also a hatchery Coho Salmon program on the Nehalem that allows you to keep hatchery-raised fish. I've fished this bay for 10 years, I know were they hide!

The Columbia has the best sturgeon fishing in the world, and if you want to catch your share of these fish, Astoria is the place to be! This is the best " keeper" area on the river. Keeper size fish are 42 to 60 inches. Some of these fish get larger, 10 feet and larger! That's one of the fun parts of sturgeon fishing, you never know what's nibbling on the end of your line. The fishing here can be very good. Catching 20 to 50 fish a day is common during the peak season These fish are hard fighting, and very good eating

Fish on these famous fish producing rivers!
