Salmon Fishing

Columbia River fishing with Bill Gaither as your guide is an experience of a lifetime as he has spent his entire life fishing for Salmon, Sturgeon, Steelhead and Shad in the Northwest near the Portland, Oregon area on the Columbia River and the Willamette river and popular nearby rivers. Call today and book a trip now with one of the best known and popular Oregon fishing guides you will find. Bill knows the waters of this area like the back of his hand and he’ll switch fishing locations from day to day due to last second condition changes.
What We Fish For
Sturgeon
Most of the Sturgeon we catch in Oregon are under 100 pounds but there are also places we fish that the Sturgeon grow 200 – 3– pounds or more. These fish are amazing to catch.
Chinook Salmon
Chinook Salmon, also known as King Salmon, are the largest species of salmon you will find in Oregon. The Spring run Chinook Salmon are a bit smaller than the Fall run Chinook Salmon.

What techniques Bill uses or what baits and rigs he uses, where he fishes, what depth of water he fishes in, what colors of lures he uses and several other things determine what he will use to catch fish the next day.
Bill calls his friends and competitors to see what has happened and what’s going on at hot spots all around the area. Then he factors in everything else he can to determine what he’ll use the next day and readies his boat and equipment accordingly. THE STEELHEAD, SALMON, STURGEON AND SHAD DON’T STAND A CHANCE!
