Spring Chinook
A happy client after early morning success on a Columbia River Spring Chinook Fishing Adventure

The Columbia River Compact has announced a new opener for Spring Chinook. Fishing is now open with a 1 Chinook limit. My bookings are open for the 17th through the 22nd. If you want to get out sooner, contact me. I’ll get you in touch with a couple of folks that I know that might have room. The boat is finally getting the wrap put on so I will be watching from the sidelines for the first few days. Once the boat is ready it’ll be time to go after these fish with a vengeance! I would love to be your fishing guide to do it with!
