Capt. Brock was great about communication.  He contacted us well in advance of the trip to make sure we were getting the experience that my family and I wanted.  The original plan was to do Ocean side salmon fishing and finish the end of the day on Sturgeon in the Columbia river.  Unfortunately as the week unfolded, it became apparent that winds on the ocean were going to be high and the water really rough.  Brock offered to cancel if the weather didn’t cooperate but he wanted to warn us that people would likely get sea sick if we went out.  He offered an alternative with Sturgeon fishing the Columbia.  My kids aren’t that hardcore about fishing so we skipped the Ocean and hit the river.

Brock was very knowledgeable about the area, where the fish would be etc.  The boat is clean and well kept.  The gear was in great shape. He’s friendly and helpful.  He is a licensed pilot boat operator for the cargo ships in the river.  He runs a safe boat with professional skill.  We will definitely plan another trip with him when we make it back to the Oregon coast.

While on vacation in the Pacific Northwest I had the opportunity to take my 9 year old son Sturgeon fishing. This has been a bucket list fishing trip for me for years. Brock was amazing and very personable. He made the trip fun and was engaged the entire time. He got us on Sturgeon pretty quick and we cought several. My son is still talking about how it was the best fishing trip ever! Thanks Brock!

We caught 4 sturgeon, all of good size. We did come out of season but we still had a very great time. Our guide was very informational and answered all of our questions. It was nice getting to know him and he was very knowledgeable. He has been fishing since he was little and knows the ins and outs of the area. Overall very great experince with a friendly guide. Hoping to do it again during salmon season! 10/10 recomend.

Had a wonderful time with Brock! It was our firs time in Astoria and it/he did not disappoint!  Caught some big ones!  We will definitely be back!

Brock worked diligently to help my son and me catch salmon despite the weather not permitting us to go out to the sea. Given the time of year, the vast majority of the salmon were at sea but because of poor weather, it was not safe to go out there. He offered to change our fishing day but my schedule would not permit. He took us out anyway on the river where it was safe and we still caught salmon even when others weren’t able to get anything.
