Oregon Steelhead Fishing Trips
Oregon's Columbia River offers some of the most exciting
Steelhead fishing imaginable. Annually, hundreds of
thousands of Steelhead enter
the Columbia River and are pursued by anglers from around the world.
Steelhead are the most aggressive fish in the
river, putting up a tremendous fight! Numerous jumps and runs are
common when hooking a Steelhead.
As the hot part of August
passes and the golden days of September and October fall on the
Columbia, the real trophy fishery begins.
Twenty (yes, 20!) pound
steelhead are no exception and 40-pound "Upriver Bright" salmon are
common enough to hardly raise an eyebrow among the locals.
The "B" run steelhead start
arriving in late August, carrying through the mid-Columbia to the latter
days of December. The premier run of hatchery fish, these steelhead
commonly tip the scale at 14-16 pounds, with 20-25 pound fish taken
periodically in the boats trolling various parts of the mid-Columbia.
