Oregon & Washington Fishing Guide & Charter

Columbia river has a ton of shad go over the dam each year.
even if you are a pro fishermen you still will have a blast catching shad on the columbia river.
Shad fishing is gteat for kids there is lot’s of action and they are a great fighting fish.
I like to fish in about 10 to 15 feet of fast moving water.
I use a dick night spon i like sliver and green, dont think it realy maters.
Then after you have caught you shad it is time for fun. If you are up to a fight of a lifetime. put the shad on hole and wate for the big sturgeon. then hold on tight.
I would love to here some fish story so please get bak to me.

Today I was sturgeon fishing in the columbia river. I was dow by roster rock.
What a day we had. the weather was nice, a little wind not to bad.
I had 2 people on the boat. we were in about 65 feet of water.
I had last year smelt for bate.
we had 17 small sturgeon and we caught 6 we could of keep.
of course we onley went home with 2 sturgeon.
there are startin to be some shad in the river, so that means great fishing ahead!

Well guys, the Sturgeon are moving up the Columbia river.
We had some great fishing up by the dam last weekend.
The weather is going to be nice in portland oregon so that should be great sturgeon fishing.
The weather will also bring lot’s of boats on the water, So get to the boat ramp early to beat the rush!
If you have some shad I think you will have some good luck on big sturgeon.
If you are looking for that keeper sturgeon I would use smelt or shrimp.
Look for Marvin’s Guide Service on the water and say hi.
Let me no how you all do this week would love to here all about it.

Today I arrived at the boat ramp awaiting my customers to arrive.They did at 6:30 am.

We headed down the Columbia river, Where I anchored up what as the flats.I was in about 62 ft of water.

In may and june over a milion shad come up the Columbia river.These shad are fun to catch on light tackle, I like to call them pour man steelhead.

Pound for pound they are one of the best biting fish the Columbia river can offer.

Columbia River Steelhead,
The Columbia River summer Steelhead runs June through September in the Portland Oregon area.
With July being my favrrot time to fish for them.
I fish on the Columbia river right below the dam in 12 to 15 foot of water.
I like to get in some prety fast water so my #5 spinner blade is moving good.
These fish range from 5 to 20 pounds and are a great fighting fish on light tackle.

Columbia River Salmon Fishing opens back up June 22nd.

I know I was going to talk about Steelhead fishing but I thought this was better.
The June salmon are great these fish are known as the June Hogs.
I fish for these salmon on the Columbia River right by the dam.
the days will book fast so if you would like to take a guided trip you need to cal me asap!

First of all we have Salmon, Steelhead, Sturgeon, Walleye and bass.These are some of the most targeted fish in the Portland Oregon area.

In my next few blogs we will talk a little bit about each one of these fish.

But since i am gearing up for Sturgeon now lets start with them.
