There are tons of ways to cook salmon, I am going to tell you my favorite way to cook it.

Some people like to have there Salmon smoked, Which is very good but I say a fresh Columbia River Spring Salmon is too good of a fish to be smoked.

I have been hearing about some more Spring Salmon caught on the Columbia River. It just might be a great season on the Columbia River for Spring Salmon.

We will find out next week what days we can fish, I can only hope that fish and game won’t screw us over this year. So if you want your shot at salmon fishing, you better call soon.

Here are a few ways to fish for Walleye on the Columbia River in Portland Oregon.

One way is with a bottom walker and a worm harness. Troll down river very slow. Remember the saying, “if you are not hanging up you are not fishing for Walleye.” I like to fish in 8 to 20 feet of water with a rocky bottom.
