Want to have a good time, catch fish, learn about the area and bank away some lifelong memories, go fishing with Jerad!Posted on Google Sarah VTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Jerad is the man! Went for a day of sturgeon fishing on the Columbia. Unfortunately, the sturgeon did not cooperate and weren’t where they were supposed to be. BUT, Jerad truly worked his ass off trying to get me on one! I still had a great time on the river and I got a bit of a tour. Would book again.Posted on Google Shuichi AkaiTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I had an amazing bottom fishing trip out of Astoria and could not recommend this guide service more. From start to finish, everything was professional, organized, and fun. The captain was extremely knowledgeable about the local waters, tides, and where to find fish, and he worked hard all day and spend extra time to make sure we had a great experience and got the fish we wanted.Posted on Google Big SealTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Friendly captain who knows what he is doing. I felt safe on the boat and we caught our limit by 9am then went for a fun little tour and saw really cool wildlife. Treated the fish proper and we got them sent home np.Posted on Google Антон СтрокTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Such an awesome fishing guide, and at the same time fishing buddy. Knows the river well will get you fish and a great time. Jerad is the goat.Posted on Google Renat sidTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Jared is such a great guide. He showed us everything he knows about how to catch Coho salmon. It was a slower day, but he was still able to put us on some fish. Great laughs, amazing conversation. Straight up a genuine guy. Would definitely recommend booking!Posted on Google Andrew TerebeyTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Jared was awesome, genuinely enjoyed talking to the guy and he was really cool. He obviously knew what he was talking about and just made the whole experience awesome for everyone on the boat. Went on a slow day and still caught a fish each for the party. Thank you Jared, we hope to book again with you soon.Posted on Google Nai SaechaoTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Jerad was a great host. He kept us entertained and put us on a lot of coho and crab. Would definitely book Jerad again in the future.Posted on Google Nickolas ProostTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. For sure the hardest working captain I’ve ever had on any charter. He worked the lines and baits till we found fish. Very knowledgeable about the river and the fish. We had a great time and will definitely book another trip.Posted on Google Steve MaughanTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. After several trips on my own and getting skunked, I booked a trip with Jerad. I let him know I was really interested in learning how to catch salmon here at Bouy 10. Jerad spent the day teaching me how to fish this area and caught some nice fish. I’ve been out twice on my own since then and have had really good success using the tactics and techniques he taught me. Just a few of the chinook I’ve caught since. Highly recommend him!Posted on Google Google rating score: 5.0 of 5,
