Captain Jeff retired from the Army and started Premier Guide Service. He has been licensed since 2015 but he has been fishing his entire life. He loves to guide fishing trips because (besides fishing), they always give the opportunity to meet new people. He participated in several local tournaments for veterans, like Fallen outdoors and Black & Gold.

    OR Salmon Fishing w Captain Jeff

    Full Day Salmon Trip • 3 adults

    From the first confirmation, to pictures and information before our trip, and wildly fun, successful fishing through to a friendly farewell, Jeff F, our captain and guide, did not disappoint. He was hospitable, kind, informative, helpful and fun. Boarded the boat as if catching up with an old friend and left with beautifully cleaned and filleted fish and the hopes of doing this again together next year. Jeff even helped out by keeping us Floridians warm with extra jackets and pants - thank goodness! Outstanding and memorable. Would do it all over again…and again…and again!

    This group from Florida might be new to salmon fishing. But, they know how to catch fish!

    Capt. Jeff

    Full Day Sturgeon Trip • 3 adults

    We had an amazing day on the Columbia with Jeff. Fishing for sturgeon. He’s a great guy, very knowledgeable and patient. I took my dad and brother on a trip for our birthdays. We pulled in plenty of fish, a few too big to pull into the boat! I highly recommend Capt. Jeff and we will be booking with him again.

    Response from Captain

    What a great group! What a great day!

What's biting with Premier Guide Service – Portland in Portland

Fall Salmon are still available, along with the last of the trophy Sturgeon near the Bonneville Dam. Portland is full of the Halloween spirit at this time of year, with haunted houses, corn mazes, and more.
