There's a fish with your name on it in Astoria and Cochran's Guide Service will help you catch it! Having logged many hours on these tides, Captain Garrett can tell you all about the local fishery.

These waters are known for Chinook Salmon, and more – with any luck, you'll have tight lines in no time. For these species, you're likely to troll.

Looking to get the whole family outdoors? Kids are absolutely welcome! Be sure to ask if child-sized life vests are available, otherwise you should bring your own. You're welcome to bring snacks so that nobody gets grumpy on an empty belly!

You'll be trolling from a 20' Alumaweld aluminum fishing boat. It comes with all the essentials. You'll find rods, reels, and tackle waiting for you.

Before coming aboard, you will need to buy a local fishing license for everyone in your group. This information is usually available online, or you can ask the captain. Some species may be off limits or require a special tag, so make sure you know what to expect.

Now, time to hit the water with Cochran's Guide Service!

    Amazing Family Experience!

    8 Hour Trip – Buoy 10 Fishing on September 2, 2026 • 4 adults

    Garrett was a great captain, he was very energetic and funny, teaching us patiently as none of us had caught Salmon before. We all maxed out, and was even able to catch a 30 pound King Salmon!
