The boat you’ll be fishing from is a 26’ Umpqua Marine aluminum fishing boat that can fit up to 6 guests. It runs on a 200 HP Yamaha engine and uses GPS, fishfinder, and radio systems for safe and efficient navigation. The boat also features an ice-box so you can store the fish you catch.

Enjoy either Fall Chinook fishing (mid-September to December), Winter Steelhead fishing (December to mid-April), or Spring Chinook (May-June) along some of Oregon’s most famous fisheries.

You can use light and heavy tackle, bottom fishing, trolling, spinning, jigging, popping, fly fishing, and drift fishing.

You can bring kids on your trip, as the captain loves having a family atmosphere on the boat. Also, you’re welcome to keep your catch. As for the things you’ll need for the trip, yours is just to take care of licenses, snacks, and drinks. The rest will be taken care of by the captain.
