The first shad of the 2023 season (actually, 27 of them) went through the fish ladders at Bonneville Dam on Saturday, May 13, and I’ve been hearing of a few already being caught on the Willamette River, where I’m fishing for spring Chinook salmon and catch-and-release sturgeon.

Here is my Portland fishing report for 5/11/23. Today, three of us met up on the Columbia River at the James Gleeson boat ramp in Portland.
The Columbia River is currently closed for salmon, but I like putting in here and running to the Willamette River to beat some of the crowd.

I’m excited for fishing in Portland, Oregon, when the weather is nice and the Columbia River is warm.
Summer fishing in Portland is fun and full of action! We have salmon fishing, steelhead fishing, walleye fishing, and one of my personal favorites is monster Sturgeon fishing.

Here comes the Buoy 10 fishing season!
Anglers will be able to keep for both chinook and coho salmon later this summer at the popular Buoy 10 fishery, which offers some of the best salmon fishing on the West Coast.

We have four more days to catch spring chinook salmon on the Columbia River.
Officials in Oregon and Washington extended the season to Tuesday, April 11, adding four more days to catch springers on the big river. (The river had originally been scheduled to close after Friday, April 7, so the decision gives us another weekend and a few days next week to fish the Columbia.)

Salmon fishing is open on the Columbia River in the Portland area (below Bonneville Dam) through April 7, 2023
I’ve fielded a few calls because news reports have stated that salmon fishing is closed. Those closures only affect the Pacific Ocean south of Cape Falcon (near Cannon Beach). The closures do not affect the spring chinook salmon fishery currently underway in the Columbia River.
