I’m Jeff Keightley.  I hope to be your salmon fishing guide. I offer a variety of fishing charters, including salmon, sturgeon, steelhead, bottom fishing (for rockfish like Ling Cod and Sea Bass), and Dungeness crab fishing on the Columbia River and the Pacific Ocean out of Astoria, Oregon.

2/19/2026  Spring Chinook Salmon Fishing season dates were announced today.  March 1 through April 8.  Please call before you book for this fishery, unless you are already familiar with Spring Chinook Salmon fishing on the Columbia River.  It's not for everyone.  Typically not anything that resembles fast action, but the prize is worth the effort.  Best quality salmon that exists on earth.  It could ruin you for eating other salmon!

Bottom Fishing (Rock Cod,Ling Cod)is always open and typically excellent. We just need favorable ocean conditions, which can be hit or miss until about July. The good news is that winter and spring months are usually fantastic for fishing if conditions are right.

Please call, text, or email with any questions. For my calendar, [Click here] for real-time availability.
