"Our mission -- to create memorable
moments with friends, families and business partners."

During the summer my kids,
Jon, Ashley, Lynzee and Marcus all work in the business cleaning boats, working
on gear, curing bait and deck handing. All are accomplished anglers and able
to help our guests at any time.
My wife, four kids and myself want to thank you for the great time we had
fishing for sturgeon. We we're so excited to tell all of our family and friends
about the two large fish we caught. Thank you for working so well with our
four young children, ages 5, 7, 8 and 9. I was lucky to find you.
We look forward to more trips with your company. Thank you again.

The Columbia River provides some
of the best fishing in Oregon for Coho and Chinook salmon and steelhead. The
Columbia River provides excellent fishing for white sturgeon averaging 30 to
80 pounds each, with oversize fish weighing as much as 400 pounds or more.
Don't forget, the scenic beauty and ruggedness
of the Columbia River Gorge and the wide open coastal expanse of Columbia
River Estuary near Astoria. This is also a special part of
our trips. So be sure to bring along your camera for some fantastic shots.
The Columbia River Gorge is a spectacular river canyon cutting the only
sea-level route through the Cascade Mountain Range. It's 80 miles long and
up to 4,000 feet deep with the north canyon walls in Washington State and
the south canyon walls in Oregon State. The Columbia River Gorge is more
than a gorgeous, natural wonder. It is also a critical transportation
corridor and is home to 70,000 people.
Chinook Salmon Of
the five species of Pacific salmon, the Chinook and Coho are the most
important to anglers. The two are often found in the same waters and
pursued in much the same way, but the Chinook is the larger of the two
and highly prized among anglers. The Columbia River Gorge is a prime
area to target Chinook salmon. When hooked, Chinook like to slug it out,
while Coho's are
acrobatic and quick.
Chinook are also known as the king salmon or spring
salmon, sometimes misspelled as samon. Chinook salmon are powerful swimmers that migrate hundreds of miles up
northwest rivers to their spawning grounds, and they can grow huge. The
rod-and-reel world record was taken in Alaska's Kenai River in 1985 and
weighed 97 pounds, 4 ounces. Most fish caught by northwest anglers,
however, range from 15 to 40 pounds. At the end of a fishing line,
Chinooks are absolute brutes - hard-running, stubborn fighters that will
give you all the challenge you can handle, and sometimes more.
Starting in March, the
Spring Chinook are the most desired of all the fish for their excellent
taste. The average fish weighs 15-20 pounds. Then in August the Upriver
Brights make their way upriver, they are hard fighting and a joy to
catch. By mid to late September, Fall Chinook are present. The largest
of the salmon species, the Fall Chinook, will certainly get your heart
pounding. Coho Salmon enter our rivers in September, a great fish to eat
and catch.
We will use a variety
of techniques depending on water conditions and the river fished. Some
of the techniques include; back-bouncing bait, hovering, bobber-bait,
drift fishing, pulling plugs and back trolling plugs or bait. Salmon trips
White Sturgeon
Sturgeon are always on tap for Catch & Release on the Lower Columbia
River. But Oregon sets seasons for retention of these special
prehistoric game fish. Common Names: Pacific sturgeon, Oregon sturgeon,
Columbia sturgeon, and Sacramento sturgeon. Sometimes misspelled as
sturgen.
White sturgeon are the largest freshwater
fish in North America and can weigh over 1,500 pounds, be 20 feet in
length, and live for over 100 years. Anadromous white sturgeon most
commonly move into large rivers like the Columbia River in early spring,
and spawn May through June.
White sturgeon are tough fighters -- so make
sure you are ready to do battle. Many days we will catch and release
over 25 fish. If your lucky enough to be here on a retention date you
will quickly become a coinsure of the best eating fish there is. If you
like Halibut its a sure thing you'll love Sturgeon.
A significant economic and cultural resource
throughout the Northwest, white sturgeon recently became a popular
target fishery with major commercial landings in the Columbia River. In
fact, Columbia River sturgeon production, with its valuable roe for
caviar, is second only to the former Soviet Union's production.
The Columbia River Gorge is also the site of
an intense sport fishery, as is the San Joaquin Delta in California and
the Willapa Bay in Washington where guided fishing trips are popular.
The white sturgeon is also an important fish for Native American
fishermen on the Columbia and Klamath rivers.
