Our Columbia River Fishing Boats
Every trip runs on a fully enclosed, heated guide boat, so a cold, wet or windy morning on the Columbia stays comfortable.
Built for the river
Warm cabin, clear deck, all year
Walleye run all year, keeper sturgeon fish through the winter and steelhead come on in the cold months. Our boats are enclosed and heated, so those trips stay comfortable.
-
Fully enclosed
A covered cabin keeps wind, spray and rain off you while the rods stay in the water.
-
Heated
Step in out of the cold between bites. Dress warm anyway: the fish are outside.
-
Rods and tackle included
Everything you need to fish is on the boat. Bring a warm layer, lunch and your fishing license.

The details
Columbia River fishing boats, enclosed and heated
What to expect from the boats before you book.
Enclosed and heated, every season
Our Columbia River guide boats are fully enclosed and heated. That is what lets us run walleye, sturgeon and steelhead trips through the cold months, and it makes warm-weather salmon and shad days comfortable when the wind picks up.
Alumaweld Columbia hulls
Our guide boats are Alumaweld Columbia aluminium boats, green with the name on the side. The photos on this page show them on the river, on the trailer and at the launch, so you can see what you are stepping onto.
What is on board
Rods, reels and tackle are included on every trip. You bring warm layers, a lunch, drinks and your fishing license; we handle the rest. See the trips and rates page for what each trip includes.
