Experience World Class Sport Fishing On The Columbia River!
We landed two nice rainbow trout chucking lures, and lost one at the boat. Fishing is good, and the trout are feeding on tiny worms and chironomids.
Most fish were in the 18-20 inch range, and the biggest was 23 inches. All looked very healthy with really nice colours and big backs.
With spring now on us the fishing is heating up. We drifted down the Columbia and landed a gorgeous 23 inch rainbow around noon.
On the Columbia River, Northern Pike are an invasive species that threaten the rainbow trout fishery. There is currently a $10/fish bounty on pike.
