Spring chinook salmon:
Going to be another good run in 2012. We
are taking names now for the sign up list. The
Columbia seasons will be announced late Jan. The
Willamette will be better than last year which means
we will start fishing in March 7 days a week till
June or whenever its over.
Sturgeon fishing:
The keeper season above
Bonneville Dam is open now seven days a week. That
is weather permitting of course. The fish have all
been up closer towards hood river than Cascade Locks
making it a bit of a run upstream if you launch at
CL. The bite has been decent but the fish are deep
and a bit timid in the 38 degree water. We still
have some open dates if you want to go fish
Bonneville pool. They finally announced the
Willamette keeper sturgeon fishing seasons and it
aint much. I was expecting six days instead it is
only 4 days for all of 2012. The open dates
for catching and keeping a sturgeon will be
February 17,18,24,25.
The rest of the year on the Willamette river is all
catch and release for sturgeon.
They also announced the Columbia river sturgeon
fishing seasons with a cut back of the early october
dates. Call us today if you want to catch and keep a
sturgeon in 2012. 503-551-6369. We will
have some other windows for Columbia river sturgeon
fishing in the spring where you can expect to catch
and keep a fish. We also offer catch and release
trips which are usually a better overall trip
without the crowds and very willing fish.
Giant sturgeon: We fish for the big sturgeon all
summer long but with the current rules May - early July are the
first peak season and Sept and Oct are the second peak season.
We are booking now for Sept and Oct giant sturgeon trips. Want
to tangle with a fish 8-13 feet long? I can help call me
today!!!!
Columbia River Walleye:
river levels and flows are finally getting back to normal.
The walleye fishing is getting better. Lots of areas around
Portland to target walleyes. Multnomah Channel, Hayden island,
Government Island, Camas - Washougal are all good bets as well
as Multnomah Falls. We are expanding our walleye trips so if you
want to go after some of these great eating fish give me a call
now is the time.
Crabbing Reports: Crabbing is starting to slow in most
estuaries which is typical for this time of year. Jan is about
the last month you can expect decent catches till next late
summer and fall.
