Halibut fishing in Astoria, OR- FishingBooker

Astoria

Astoria, United States

astoria

<p>Nestled at the dramatic confluence of the Columbia River and the Pacific Ocean, Astoria, Oregon, offers some of the most diverse and productive saltwater fishing in the Pacific Northwest. This historic coastal town is renowned for its legendary Buoy 10 salmon fishery, where anglers target massive Chinook (King) and acrobatic Coho (Silver) Salmon from August through October. These powerful fish gather at the river’s mouth, creating one of North America’s largest salmon runs with over a million fish surging into the estuary annually.</p>

<p>The Columbia River estuary delivers exceptional fishing beyond salmon, with colossal White Sturgeon—some exceeding 120 pounds—patrolling the depths. After Labor Day, Dungeness crab pots join the action, allowing anglers to pair premium salmon catches with fresh crab feasts. Just offshore, Pacific waters teem with Lingcod, Rockfish, Halibut, and seasonal Tuna, providing year-round opportunities for deep-sea adventures.</p>

<p>Astoria’s unique geography merges river, bay, and ocean ecosystems, creating unparalleled versatility. Anglers can drift the Lewis and Clark River’s serene tributaries for Steelhead, bottom-fish near Tillamook Head’s rocky outcrops, or chase migratory Sturgeon feeding on anchovy schools in Youngs Bay. With professional charters navigating these biodiverse waters, Astoria stands as a premier destination where every trip promises trophy potential and unforgettable marine encounters.</p>

<p>
	Average temperatures are creeping toward 60&deg;F as the spring Chinook season gets underway. Trophy Sturgeon aren&rsquo;t here just yet, but you can enjoy fishing for keeper-sized fish while you wait.</p>


<p>
	Come August, fishing in Astoria is all about Buoy 10. Anglers from the far reaches of Oregon travel to the mouth of the Columbia River for a chance to indulge in this magnificent run of Salmon and Steelhead.</p>


<p>
	Average temperatures dip at this time of year, so be sure to bundle up if you&rsquo;re heading out. The bays have plenty of Crab and bottom fish to offer, while the rivers are teeming with Steelhead and more.</p>


<p>
	Average temperatures hover between 38 and 51&deg;F as Astoria&rsquo;s winter fishing continues along the rivers. In the bays, bottom fishing promises Lingcod, Cabezon, and more.</p>


<p>
	January&#39;s a great time to get on the water if you&#39;re not afraid to face some chilly weather! Walleye and winter Steelhead are biting vigorously. Now&rsquo;s your chance to experience this world-class fishery without the crowds.</p>


<p>
	With average temperatures as high as 68&deg;F, you can enjoy some of Astoria&rsquo;s warmest weather out on the water. Now is the perfect time to head offshore for the Albacore Tuna run.</p>


<p>
	June is all about variety here in Astoria. The Columbia River is crowded with monster Sturgeon, Steelhead, and summer Chinook, while the bays are bustling with Halibut and other bottom fish.</p>


<p>
	You can expect lots of that famous Oregon rainfall through March, but don&rsquo;t let that put a damper on your mood! The winter Steelhead run is wrapping up as spring Chinook begin to enter the Columbia River.</p>


<p>
	It&rsquo;s that time of year when anglers go berserk for massive Sturgeon in the Columbia River! Come wrestle with a 100+ lb fish and bring home some bragging rights. In the bays, Halibut are open to harvest.</p>


<p>
	Head to the Necanicum and Nehalem Rivers for winter Steelhead or fish the Columbia for keeper Sturgeon and Walleye. In the bays, anglers are making the most of bottom fishing.</p>


<p>
	The Columbia River&rsquo;s peak season comes to a close in October, as the last of the Buoy 10 hype dies down and Salmon become scarce. Fly anglers will be gearing up for the winter Steelhead run.</p>


<p>
	Excellent angling opportunities can still be found around Buoy 10. Get a taste of the action and then head offshore for Dungeness Crab, Tuna, and the last of the Halibut, if the annual quota still hasn&rsquo;t been met.&nbsp;</p>


<div>
	The sheer number of Astoria fishing charters on offer reflects the amount of fishing opportunities in this part of Oregon. Perfectly situated along the banks of the iconic Columbia River, with the Nehalem and Tillamook Bays located nearby, this port city boasts plenty of ways for anglers to get their fish on. It&rsquo;s also home to some world-famous fish!</div>
<div>
	&nbsp;</div>
<div>
	Astoria is perhaps most well-known for providing direct access to the Columbia River. This freshwater fishery is beloved for its high numbers of Salmon varieties. Fishing guides generally head to this area in spring, when the first Chinook arrive. They&rsquo;re joined by Coho and Steelhead in summer, and the fishery remains strong until around October. From May through July, huge Sturgeon enter these waters, and can be caught and released.</div>
<div>
	&nbsp;</div>
<div>
	The saltwater fishing scene in Astoria is often overshadowed, but it offers up plenty of exciting angling action. Hit the Nehalem and Tillamook Bays, or travel out onto the open waters of the Pacific, and you could encounter Salmon, Lingcod, Halibut, Crab, and Albacore Tuna. Most local guides explore these waters through spring, summer, and fall, but winter can yield surprising catches such as Lingcod and Crab.</div>
<div>
	&nbsp;</div>
<div>
	Depending on where you want to fish, you&rsquo;ll have a variety of trips to choose from. If you&rsquo;re exploring the bays or the ocean, opting for a full day trolling or bottom fishing trip is the best option. For the Columbia River, many local guides offer half to full day adventures that can be tailored to suit your skill level and preferences.</div>
