If you're in the market for a day to remember, look no further than NW Bound Outdoors Guide Service. Captain Kevin will be your guide; he grew up in Oregon and has been fishing in the northwest since he was a kid (35 plus years.) As a kid and young adult, he has spent most of his free time fishing every chance he can get. The amount of time and opportunities have provided him with the experience and knowledge needed to know what the best techniques are, his goal is to provide a safe and comfortable guided fishing trip, he truly enjoys watching the excitement in helping you, your family, and your friends reel in their fish. My job is to help set you up for success with the right equipment and make a lifetime of memories.

These waters are known for Chinook Salmon, Coho Salmon, Sockeye Salmon, Sturgeon, Rainbow Trout (Steelhead), and more – with any luck, you'll have tight lines in no time.

You'll target your catch by spinning, trolling, drifting, jigging, bottom fishing, or maybe something more specialized in this area.

Planning a family adventure? Kids are absolutely welcome! Be sure to ask if child-sized life vests are available, otherwise you should bring your own. Snacks and food are also a good idea to stay fueled throughout your trip!

You'll be casting lines from a 23' Alumaweld Columbia with room for 6 passengers. It has all the essentials no fishing machine can run without.

Capt. Kevin will provide rods and reels for you, along with lures and bait.

You will need to get a local fishing license before the trip. This information is usually available online, or you can ask the captain. Some species might be protected or require a tag to keep them, so make sure you know what to expect.

Don't leave home without sunblock (non-spray), bottled water, and sunglasses. and warm clothing and rain gear during certain parts of the year.

NW Bound Outdoors Guide Service will make it easy for you to go fishing in Oregon or Washington. So, how about booking that trip!

Full Day Trip – Spring (Shared) on May 9, 2025
I've gone out on the big river with Kevin multiple times and every time he is ready and willing to put in the work to catch the fish of choice. Kevin is a good guy with a "go get 'em" attitude. He makes you comfortable, as well as makes you feel safe while you are on his boat, which is huge coming from a non-swimmer. Thanks Kevin!
