Fish from the comfort of a 23 foot jet sled fully outfitted with padded swivel seats twin motors, fish finder and more. Able to fish six persons. Top for inclement weather.

Please note:
You will find that most all guide boats in our area are licensed to carry a maximum of six passengers. The current trend is to fish up to six fishermen out of a 20-25 foot boat. As far as I'm concerned, this can be a bit too crowded for most, especially when the other anglers are not part of your group.

I only fish four fishermen from my boat, unless you have six anglers in your group.

"You should always ask how many fishermen are going to be in the boat".

These giants average about 8 feet in length but often grow to well over 14 feet in length and can weigh up to 500 pounds. They are very acrobatic about half the fish will jump right after being hooked. this is big game fishing at its finest.

On an average day you will catch from 20 to 50 fish including the sub legal's with 4 to 10 keepers mixed in. They are also some of the best eating fish you will find.

What to bring

When going on a trip the two most important things to bring are LICENSE AND RAINGEAR.

License- You can purchase a one-day license for $12. Licenses can be purchased at sporting goods stores, Fred Meyers and Bi Mart. Make sure the clerk gives you the catch record card with you license. (Sometimes the person behind the counter does not know what you need).

 
Raingear- Also, dress in lots of layers, you can always take off a layer if it warms up. The wind almost always blows, especially while fishing the Columbia River or one of the bays. Dress for a wind chill of 20 mph and know that the wind will be blowing across water that can be in the 40’s or 50’s. I usually start my day wearing a sweatshirt, hat, coat and or raingear.
 

• Lunch and Beverages
