Now booking combo salmon & sturgeon trips!
Big Summer Chinook are forecasted to enter the Columbia River!
When? June & July
Where? Lower Columbia River out of Astoria, Oregon.
Summer Chinook Salmon: Two hatchery salmon per person! Some of our biggest salmon of the year! These fish average 10-40 pounds and are only hours out of the ocean.
Trophy Sturgeon: Catch & Release fishing for fish that average four to eight feet in length. Nothing beats seeing an 8 foot sturgeon jumping clear out of the river! This is a high catch rate fishery with 30+ fish days being common.
These are combo trips and we are fishing for both species in the same day for no additional charge. This is a $75 per person savings!
Huge & comfortable, 28 Foot Willie Guide Boats!
Booking with Total Fisherman provides you with:
• Guides that have an in-depth knowledge of the Summer Chinook fishery.
• Great boats 28' - 36' in length and loaded for bear!
• Our commitment to making your day the best day possible.
• High quality rods, reels and bait.
We troll the most productive waters in the Astoria, Oregon 
area in pursuit of these fish.
We don't fish on anchor for salmon.
Our "Lets find em!" trolling approach works really well.
Trolling has proven to be the most effective technique year in and year out.
We are expecting a very good summer Chinook Salmon run beginning in mid June and going through July.
A huge push of summer Chinook Salmon are currently staging in the ocean to make their way up the Columbia River right now!
Starting June 15, this most highly sought after and elusive salmon will be pursued by tens of thousands of anglers.
Don't miss your opportunity to land one of these prized salmon!
