Amazing experience as always with Captain Donald
Full Day Trip (Private) on July 2, 20264 adults

This is our third trip out with Donald and Pastime Fishing Adventures and each time has been better than the previous. Not sure how he is going to top it next year, but I am sure Donald will fid a way. This year we struck out in a new direction than usual to try out some new spots ad it turned out to be an excellent choice. We were quickly on schools of impressively large bass and beautiful ling cod and had a great day, hitting our limit on bass quickly and pulling in six lings as well. 12 dungeoness crabs topped off the days haul for a cooler full of fish. Fishing aside, Donalds company and humor was on point and the scenery was spectacular. Donald remains a top captain and guid, patiently providing help where needed, and allowing those who need less assistance to be more independent. A perfect day. Highly recommend!

March fishing trip
Half Day Trip (Shared) on March 27, 20264 adults

From the time we boarded the boat, Donald was so aware, attentive, and on top of all of our needs. He actually remembered and brought iinformation about us from our pre trip survey into our conversation. He was great at making it a very positive experience. To as much of his professional ability as possible, he also did his very best to get us as close to our quota of fish. We were so close! Thanks Captain Donald.

Angler's Choice

The Angler's Choice Award is given to listings that consistently deliver a high-quality service and earn great reviews from customers.

I started fishing young with my father and loved being out on the water. He taught me the ins and outs of fishing the Oregon Coast and the Columbia River with its tributaries. 15 years ago I decided to start sharing my knowledge with others and it has been the greatest career anyone could choose. We use a variety of fishing techniques depending on where we are fishing. On the ocean, it's a combination of live bait, lures, and jigs. On the river it's similar, but we also use fresh or frozen shad for catching Sturgeon. Rest assured, we will have all the latest and greatest gear to catch the fish. We even make our own jigs.
