With a long season that runs almost year-round, impressive catches, and an experienced guide who’s fished here for decades, you can’t go wrong. Just one look at the photos, and you’ll see why so many anglers book Joe’s fishing trips repeatedly.

Salmon is the prized catch here, and it’s hardly a surprise, seeing how hard-fighting and tasty they are. Chinook and Coho are popular in Tillamook Bay and in the ocean waters around it. If you come in August, Capt. Jamison will take you to British Columbia, to experience the legendary Buoy 10 fishery.

You’ll be heading out with Captain Michael Bradden, a local pro who spends more time on the water than on land. Hop aboard his 14’ Willies drift boat, perfect for a pair of anglers looking to have a productive day on the Tillamook River. Look out for temperatures just above 32 F for your best chances of hooking legendary Steelhead.

Captain Ted will take you fishing for Salmon, Steelhead, Sturgeon, and more. The Spring run of Chinook Salmon is from May 1st to July 1st; Spring Steelhead is available from April 1st to July 31st; Fall Chinook arrives on September 1st and remains through December 31st; Winter Steelhead run from December 15th to April 15th; Sturgeon is available December 1t to August 31st.
