The steelhead fishing on the Columbia River has been really good. I have been fishing at the oak tree in about 10 or 12 feet of water.

A red spinner blade has been the hot one for me. had some good luck on a blue one to.

There has been a few boats there so if you want the hot spot get there early.

Now for the Sturgeon fishing on the Columbia river. the fishing has been pretty hot.
with plenty of small Sturgeon. There are even some keeper sturgeon.
If you can find a floater shad you are almost sure you will hook up on a big sturgeon.

Don’t forget about Salmon fishing at buoy 10 the mouth of the Columbia river in August.
we are going to have a record run of salmon up the Columbia River this year.

Marvin’s Fishing Guide Service still has a few days left open for Buoy 10.
see you all on the River soon.

Steelhead is a very acrobatic and impressive fish. They are wonderful tasting and guaranteed to please even the most discriminating dinner guest.
Watch the fish counts and give me a call for best dates.

Columbia River Salmon opens back up June 22nd is a post from the best Oregon fishing guide blog we could find, where Marvin writes about Salmon, sturgeon, and Walleye...

We met at the Columbia river boat ramp at 6:30 am. We headed down the columbia up into the Willamette river.

It was a nice morning and instantely We caught 20 inch Sturgeon. Even though it was small  the people from Utah had a blast. It Was the biggest fish they have ever caught.

We hooked 3 or 4 more all about 35 inches.Then the wind started blowing up the willamette river and the bite went off.

So we searched all over the river looking for Sturgeon.As the day went on the wind on the river got worst.

So at about 2:30 we decided to call it a day.But the group was smiling and lauging saying it was the best time we had on the river And saying it was the best time on the river.

I want to thank these 4 for the great time on the river. You couldnt ask for a better group. I look foward to fishing with them again.

None of these guys ever fished for sturgeon before
.
We left the dock at Troutdale and went up the Columbia river to Roster Rock
.
I put are line out, with smelt and sand shrimp.

After we caught 3 or 4 small sturgeon we got are first keeper, it was 47 inch long.
Afte that the bite went off.
So I went down the Columbia river
And fished under the power lines by the sandy River.

I was in 52 foot of water. and the first sturgeon we caught was 47 and a half. almost a twin to the first one.

We caught about 10 more small sturgeon the we got are last keeper.
44 inch!
not a bad day at all on the Columbia river.

3 Sturgeon on the Columbia river Saturday is a post from the best Oregon fishing guide blog we could find, where Marvin writes about Salmon, sturgeon, and Walleye...

I like to use a ugly stick rod. With a pen gti 320 with 100 pound tuff line.

I use a slider for my weight the to my hook witch is a size 10.
I use 130 pound leader. I like my leader to be about 4 foot long.

I like the long leader because when the Sturgeon gets to the boat I can just grab the line.
Fish were there is current water dose not have to be deep to catch Sturgeon.
Look for back eddy and any place you think ther might be food on the bottom.
Call Marvin’s Guide Service for your best day on the water.

I have been a fishing fool all my life. I have been fishing all over Oregon. I started fishing for salmon, steelhead, On the John day river with my dad.

For the last 10 or 20 years I have spent much of my time Fishing for sturgeon, salmon and steel head. About 12-13 years ago I decided to start guiding full time.

Now days the excitement that used to come from catching the fish has changed to satisfaction coming from being able to bring new people into the sport and to be able to Consistently figure out the fish and help my customers catch them.

Fishing for me is still exciting from the thrill of the bite to the challenge of the hunt for the fish.

Fishing over 250 days a year I still love it everyday. But on my days off I love spending time on my boat with my family.

Marvin,
