Salmon Fishing, Sturgeon Fishing and Steelhead Fishing guide for the Columbia River

We fish the Columbia River, Willamette River, Sandy River, John Day River & other popular Northwest waters.

STURGEON
Sturgeon are the dinosaurs of the Columbia River. They range anywhere from 12 inches to 12 feet in length and weigh up to 700 pounds. Keeper Sturgeon are any fish between 42” and 60”. Oversize Sturgeon (also referred to as trophy Sturgeon) typically make runs of 100 yards or more and make multiple jumps while hooked. An average day of Keeper Sturgeon fishing is catching from 20 to 30 fish with numerous "keepers". On typical Oversize Sturgeon fishing trips you can expect to catch 2 to 6 of these monsters a day that range between 6' and 10' in length! I highly recommend a Sturgeon trip for anyone who wants lots of action and a very memorable fishing experience.
KEEPER STURGEON
A typical day of Sturgeon fishing means 2 - 15 keepers and you will catch numerous others that are too small. They usually only run a few inches below the minimum keeper size so they are still tons of fun to play and provide plenty of fight. The best time of the year for this productive fishery is October through May.
OVERSIZE STURGEON
AWESOME! This is the only way to describe this fishery. Often described as the Marlin of the Columbia, oversize sturgeon are those fish over 60 inches in length. Most of these are 6 to 10 feet long weighing from 100 - 400 pounds and more! All these oversize fish must be released as these are the fish that reproduce but if you have the will to bring them to the boat you will have an excellent photo opportunity and a good story to go along with it. The best time of the year for these trophy Sturgeon is May - November
Quality, Comfort, Success Guaranteed!
