What way to start my weekend with a very first time on the Columbia. Got my first Wa State King Salmon ever and ended up with a limit of 1 Coho and 1 King. It's kind of a bummer to drive 4 hours for two fish but most definitely worth the experience. First, I'm not familiar with the area but we launched out of Astoria started fishing the Oregon side making our way towards the WA along the bridge. We hooked into a few jacks to small to keep which were released.
Lost over 7-8 fish today. I kicked back and watched my friend and his dad finish up their limits!

We had a phenominal guide who knew where the fish were holding during the tide switches. He was very knowledgeable and put us on fish! Cut plug herring was the choice of bait
