Columbia River Gorge Salmon
Columbia River Gorge Salmon
Fall Salmon Season is here! Don't miss the boat on these iconic fish. We'll fish lower Columbia, Multnomah Falls/Bonneville Dam, and follow the fish up as they work their way through the system, keeping you on the biggest, brightest, freshest fish!!
We'll be fishing out of a brand new 26ft Alumaweld Columbia that seats 6 guests very comfortably, so bring your family, bring your friends, bring you dog!! Kids are always welcome, we love helping them get hooked on fishing!!
All gear and bait provided. We keep water on board as well as an ice chest you can use. Fully USCG licensed and insured, First Aid/CPR certified.
Just bring your fishing license (day tag or annual with Salmon catch card). These can be purchased locally at Main St. Convenience in Stevenson, WA and at Bridge Mart by White Salmon, WA, and PNW weather appropriate clothing and we'll do the rest.
Now, time to hit the water with Big Mike in the Columbia River Gorge!

Full Day Trip – Fall Chinook & Coho
Determined fishing.
It was a little slow that day thanks to a change in wind direction, but Mike and Stacy kept us going and we caught our limit. All in all it was a great day! Captain and crew were very acomodating and fun. You can't go wrong with this crew.

Fishing with Big Mike
Fishing with Big Mike was amazing as always. Mike is a phenomenal captain, will get you on fish, has an amazing new boat and is all around a great guy! I've never felt safer on the water and love getting to fish with him and deckhand supreme Stacy! Im so excited for fall fishing and cant wait to get more springer trips on the books for next year. Thank you Mike!

Mike has top of the line equipment and the know how to utilize it in order to put fish in the boat. He is friendly and knowledgeable and enjoys sharing his passion for fishing with others. He knows the Columbia River as well as anyone out there and knows when and where to fish it. Book a trip, you will not be disappointed.
