Crabbing / Rockfish Private(4) on August 5, 2026 • 5 adults • 1 childMy 13 year old and I both caught monster salmon that gave us a run for our money. Captain Wade was awesome and helped us get fish in the boat when others were having a hard time hooking fish. So…much…fun!

David Hughes4.7VerifiedFull day on the Columbia
Full Day Trip on October 10, 2020 • 4 adultsI recently went out on a full day trip with Captain Wade. It was easily the worst weather day of the fall and while we had to work to catch fish, we put a few in the boat. Wade stayed positive the entire time even when the wind and waves caused the ugliest rats nest tangle I've seen in quite a while! Great guy and great experience...give him a try, I doubt you'd be disappointed!
