Great Summer King fishing with Sturgeon
Great Summer King fishing with Sturgeon
Sep 6, 2025 Elma
Weโ€™ve been having a blast fishing, the Columbia river Gorge for Chinook, salmon, coho salmon, and also doing some catching release Sturgeon fishing! Most days have been productive and hot with great fishing in the morning for King salmon typically catching our limit early with enough time to go and catch some Sturgeon afterwards! This season is almost done for me as I will wrap up September 15 but if youโ€™d like to get in on some of this action next year, itโ€™s never too early to get on the calendar! I start running these trips around August 1st each summer! If this is something youโ€™re interested in or youโ€™d like to hear more about what we have upcoming for this fall October, November and also coho salmon in December. Please reach out thank you so much for taking the time to read our fishing report! This was written by Human and not AI hahaha

Hey Hey guys, I just wanted to check in. FISHING has been decent as of late even though cold temps have been predominant mid morning through afternoon. Fishing has been decent with chances each day at beautiful hard fighting Winterrun steelhead. Sometimes we are catching keeper steelhead other times were catching wild steelhead that we have to release but all in all itโ€™s been a lot of fun to be out there in the weather has been amazing, especially our sunny afternoons.
