Astoria salmon fishing charters are consistently outstanding, and I run guided salmon fishing trips on both the Pacific Ocean and the Columbia River right out of Astoria, Oregon.
The Pacific Ocean opens for salmon in late June, and we fish it hard through July and into early August. By the first half of August, the Columbia River typically becomes the better bet as Buoy 10 salmon fishing kicks into gear.
Buoy 10 salmon fishing on the Columbia River is my specialty. Anyone can catch Pacific Ocean salmon – the river bite is where things get serious. Come on out and experience the difference!
Best Time to Fish
Late June through early August is prime for ocean Chinook and Coho. Buoy 10 opens August 1st and typically runs strong into September for Columbia River salmon.
What’s Included
Every guided salmon fishing trip includes the boat, rods, reels, tackle, and bait – you just bring yourself and a fishing license.
