We hope you read the reviews. There is a button on the menu above that combines all our reviews in one place. We're going to get fish if anyone does. Very few exceptions. Consistancy is the name of our game and we're coming to win! Salmon fishing charters in Astoria are normally very good. We fish the Pacific Ocean in late June, July and early August. Sometimes later into August and September as well, but usually the river is the better place to fish by sometime in the first half of August. Buoy 10 (Columbia river) salmon fishing is definitely our strength. Anyone can catch salmon in the Ocean. The river is where we seperate the men from the boys, so to speak.
