Wade knows where the bite is and will make your trip as enjoyable as possible, so join him aboard and have an unforgettable day fishing in Astoria!
The vessel you’ll be in is a 26’ River Wild aluminum fishing boat. It can seat up to 6 guests, runs on a 250 HP Yamaha VMAX engine, and uses the most modern GPS and autopilot equipment available.

The Buoy 10 fishery on the Columbia River is abundant in Chinook Salmon as well as Coho Salmon. You and your guide will target them by trolling, spinning, and jigging, using both light and heavy tackle. Your captain is great with kids so this will be a fun trip for the whole family.
Your guide will take care of all the fishing gear you’ll need. This includes all the tackle and live bait. Dress for the weather, bring a lunch and a valid fishing license and RiverTrek NW will get you on the fish!

Half Day Trip (Private Boat)
Weather conditions were bad with rain, cold and wind. Capt Wade worked hard to put us on fish. His boat and gear were in good shape and he has very good knowledge of the area. We didn’t catch our limit but did land a few.

Captain Wade did a great job for us! He understands where the fish are going to be based on the tide and successfully and consistently put us onto fish throughout our half day trip. He also did a great job coaching my nephews and helping them master the tackle and techniques necessary to catch fish. They had a great time!
