Steelhead - $225
We fish the central Oregon Coast on the Alsea, Siletz and Nestucca rivers. The drainages begin in the coastal mountains and flow through miles of timberland, picking up tributary’s along their way and growing into rivers large enough to navigate with a driftboat. Each one of these systems has its own unique features and run timing that only increase the fishable options.
These are typically an 8 hour fishing trip where we will be floating the river. I will provide a shuttle service from the put-in to the takeout. The boat is equipped with a heater and thermos of hot coffee.
Be sure to bring:
Fishing License and Tag
Warm Clothes/Raingear
Lunch
Salmon - $225
Oregon’s iconic fish, Pacific Salmon, come in many shapes and sizes throughout the year. from the silver bright Coho salmon we chase on the ocean in summer time, to the behemoth Chinook or King salmon we love to chase in the Fall. There is salmon fishing opportunities 8 months out of the year if one is willing to travel to chase these silver bullets.
We fish spring chinook from April through June, Ocean Coho during the month of July and back to Fall Chinook August through November.
Ocean Coho are pursued from Depoe Bay or Newport. This is an 8 hour trip. Crabbing is available with this trip
Spring Chinook fisheries start on the Willamette in the Portland area during the month of April and then transition to the north coast around Pacific City during May and June. This is an 8 trip and Crabbing is an option
Fall Chinook fisheries start in August and run through November. Focus is primarily on the Siletz and Alsea rivers. crabbing is an option while the fishery lasts in tidewater. As the fall rains come and the fish move upriver we fish out of the driftboat (typically October - November). This is an 8 hour trip.
Crabbing and Ocean Bottomfishing - $175
Ocean bottomfishing for Rockfish and Lingcod can be a great, family fun trip when ocean conditions allow. These active fish can often be caught very near to the port of Depoe Bay and is an easy one for the kiddos. Crabbing adds another element of fun when pulling in traps loaded with tasty crabs and all manner of sea creatures that might come up with the pots.
We like to gear these trips to our clients needs. Want to chase big lings? We can do that. Prefer to sneak out and catch a few fish before sea sickness sets in? we can do that too. You might even see some whales while we are out there!
These trips are dependent on ocean conditions and may be scheduled or cancelled on short notice as conditions can quickly change.
What to Bring:
Fishing/Crabbing License
Warm Clothes/Raingear
Lunch
Cooler for your catch
