Fishing for Spring Chinook has come to an end on the Columbia River, and it was a great season to say the least! We had great days fishing on the Wind, and Lewis Rivers and am looking forward to next year already. Next up is Summer Chinook! This is my favorite fishery of the year by far! I only have a few days left so contact soon if you’d like a date.
Summer Steelhead will be the next upcoming fishery on the Columbia River. Starting after the 4th of July, we’ll have some great days on the water fishing for fiesty, acrobatic and tasty fish they are. I also have limited days for this fishery as well so please contact asap.
We’re already getting excited for the fall run of Chinook and Coho that will be starting Aug 1st. This is the main event of the year and luckily it stays good for 3 solid months. August is the month we spend our time chasing fall chinook in Astoria Oregon at the world renowned “Buoy 10” fishery.
The Buoy 10 fishery, is an experience everyone must have at least once. Many people think this is a crowded “combat” fishery, but really it’s not. The Buoy 10 fishery consists of 30 square miles of river to fish and often times we are all by ourselves catching one right after another.
After Bouy 10 in August, we move up the Columbia River to Woodland Washington. This is where we spend the rest of the fall targeting Fall Chinook and Coho Salmon. Fishing out of Woodland is fantastic the whole month of September and most of Oct!
I’m starting to book out my days for Buoy 10 and the fall run of Salmon in Woodland Washington. If you would like to get in on it, contact me sooner than later for the best dates. It’s forecasted to be another great year of Fall Chinook and Coho fishing! See you on the water!
