Portland Spring/Summer Salmon on July 24, 2025
Such an awesome day… The weather was perfect. The boat was super clean and organized. The gear provided was top notch. Captain Jordan is extremely knowledgeable, and welcoming. We started off the day with a monster strike as soon as the lures hit the water. It was all day super fun action. Jordan put us on the fish even when none of the other boats were catching. Our smallest boy caught the biggest fish of the day! And it was a monster! Thank you Capt Jordan for an awesome day of fishing and memories to last a lifetime.

Fishing with Jordan
Portland Spring/Summer Salmon on June 16, 2025
Jordan was the perfect guide. We had 3 people on board, one who had fished with Jordan several times before, my son who had not experienced a guided trip before and myself who has been on many guided trips. Jordan put us on the fish. We caught 3 beautiful springers and landed 2. We all had a ball. I would recommend Jordan to anyone looking for a great trip.

Full day, started a bit slow but picked up, and later Jordan worked hard to find and keep us on fish until we caught some.
