Brock called the day before because their experience wasn’t stellar, but wanted me to know in case I wanted the option to cancel. I know the river changes every day so I said I was game. He was willing. We got out on the water and it was a beautiful day, the opposite of the previous day. There weren’t many bites, but we managed to reel in a Chinook salmon. Brock was great and very knowledgable with history of the area and of the fish. I would highly recommend going with Brock.

Capt. Brock was great about communication.  He contacted us well in advance of the trip to make sure we were getting the experience that my family and I wanted.  The original plan was to do Ocean side salmon fishing and finish the end of the day on Sturgeon in the Columbia river.  Unfortunately as the week unfolded, it became apparent that winds on the ocean were going to be high and the water really rough.  Brock offered to cancel if the weather didn’t cooperate but he wanted to warn us that people would likely get sea sick if we went out.  He offered an alternative with Sturgeon fishing the Columbia.  My kids aren’t that hardcore about fishing so we skipped the Ocean and hit the river.

Brock was very knowledgeable about the area, where the fish would be etc.  The boat is clean and well kept.  The gear was in great shape. He’s friendly and helpful.  He is a licensed pilot boat operator for the cargo ships in the river.  He runs a safe boat with professional skill.  We will definitely plan another trip with him when we make it back to the Oregon coast.

Brock was absolutely incredible and I am very thankful for the memorable day he helped create for us. We had a blast on the water, he put us on salmon right away, and everyone came home with their limits! If he’s available, don’t hesitate to book with him, you won’t regret it.

We caught 4 sturgeon, all of good size. We did come out of season but we still had a very great time. Our guide was very informational and answered all of our questions. It was nice getting to know him and he was very knowledgeable. He has been fishing since he was little and knows the ins and outs of the area. Overall very great experince with a friendly guide. Hoping to do it again during salmon season! 10/10 recomend.

I came out to catch sturgeon out of season, he found time for me, communicated well, and did everything he could to get me on the fish i was after. Brock is very knowledgeable and fun to talk to, i would recommend his guide service to anyone!
