Me and 3 friends scheduled a sturgeon trip with Captain Rod, and had an amazing time! Sturgeon was a bucket list fish of mine and Rod helped us check that box, and then some! It wasn’t more than 10 minutes after we anchored that we started getting bites! Rod explained what to look for, and how to set the hook, and we started reeling them in! Between the 4 of us, we pulled in over 30 sturgeon ranging in size from little 18 inch disks, all the way up to a 6 foot long sturgeon that needed multiple... More

We had an amazing time fishing today with Captain Rod. He is helpful and patient, and always willing to share information and tips. He is an experienced captain, with great boat handling skills in a challenging Columbia River bar crossing. His boat is very comfortable, and he is well prepared with high quality fishing gear. He will always be my family’s first call when we’re looking for a fishing trip!

From the date/time of booking Rod was in communication with us. We were able to secure the perfect day for fishing. Rod is friendly and super knowledge about all things fishing. It was an absolute pleasure to fish with him all day. He was patient and kind with my ASD kiddo. His boat is clean and has everything! He answered all of my dumb questions and didn’t seem too embarrassed by how excited I was to see a sturgeon for the first time ;) My son and I look forward to going out with Rod... More

You can immediately tell Rod knows what he’s doing and respects his craft. Such a great experience for our first time fishing salmon.  We consistently had fish on the line and caught our license worth in just a couple hours. We were back on the dock with filets in hand before 10am. Highly recommend!

We had a great experience with Captain Rod of Reel Em Up Fishing Adventures. He worked very hard to get us on the fish and was patient, polite and professional. Rod had many different methods, tackle and types of bait that we used and did a great job with making sure the group was comfortable and having an awesome day. I would fish with Rod again and I plan to in the future.
