Columbia River Salmon Fishing Report

overcast but surprisingly nice out there! we got into a school of salmon around noon. ended with 4 keepers all between 12-16lbs. using orange lures today, they were loving it! always a thrill when you see that rod bending like crazy.

cloudy day on the columbia, felt like a perfect opportunity. got 5 bites but only landed 2 salmon, both around 10lbs. used herring as bait, they just couldn’t resist. it was a fun afternoon, even with the grey skies hanging around.

wow what a day! heavy rain showers most of the morn but we stuck it out. finally hooked a big 20lb king! fought like a champ. used my favorite green and gold spinner. took patience, but it was soooo worth it! rain or shine, fishing's the best.

light rain on and off but didn’t let that stop us! had a slow start but once we found the right spot, it was game on. ended up landing a solid 18lb salmon! worked a purple jett with some weight. definitely a memorable day despite the drizzle.

partly cloudy day out on the water, nice change of pace. we floated down and hit a few spots. man, the fish were active! caught 3 salmon, 12 to 14 lbs each, using a silver spoon. can’t complain at all. feels good to be reeling them in again!
