Unforgettable Trip with Caleb’s Guide Service
If you're looking for a top-tier fishing experience, Caleb’s Guide Service in Portland is the one to book. I had an incredible day on the water with Captain Caleb. Everything from the boat and gear to his expertise and attitude was spot on. The boat was clean, comfortable, and outfitted with high-quality equipment. Caleb was friendly, knowledgeable, and made me feel welcome from the moment I stepped aboard. Whether you’re a seasoned angler or new to fishing, he makes sure you are having a great time and know what you are doing. Caleb knew exactly where to go and kept me in the fish throughout the trip. I caught two beautiful King salmon and had a third monster on that was so strong it straightened the hook! Beyond the fishing, Caleb was just fun to be around. He shared local knowledge, great conversation, and even cleaned my catch at the end of the day. It felt more like fishing with an experienced friend than a guided tour. If you’re anywhere near Portland, do not miss the chance to fish with Caleb’s Guide Service. I’ll absolutely be booking again next time I'm in town.

AWESOME TRIP!!!!
Caleb was unable to make the trip due to a family emergency but solved the problem before we even knew! He found another guide to cover the trip (Kyle - shoutout) and we caught two AWESOME sized chinook salmon! Caleb and Kyle both seem like awesome individuals and super knowledgeable about fishing! Highly recommend either one of them! Also the donuts at the drop spot we had in Nehalem called Pacific Roots Coffee and Mini Donuts!

Great trip
I’ve done many guided trips and Caleb was amongst the best. Very easy going, he works hard and is calm and great with our group. You can’t always bet on catching but we reached our limits. Highly recommend

Very comfortable boat to fish off of
Great Captain and great equipment. He tried everything to bring in the catch. To many boats fishing the area and I only saw one fish caught out of maybe 75 boats. Sometimes it just doesn't work.

Caleb is a great guy, very knowledgeable and pleasant to converse with! Rained all day, and it was a tough bite, but he put us on fish! Very happy, will go out with Caleb again next time we're in the area!
