Astoria Sturgeon Fishing Guides: The Ultimate experience

We also offer Sturgeon retention trips when available in the lower Columbia River. Experience the thrill of Sturgeon fishing in Astoria, Oregon with our expert guides! Oversize Sturgeon and keeper Sturgeon gather in great numbers in the Columbia River estuary from late Spring to Mid-Summer. They feast on a bounty of clams and large schools of anchovies, increasing your chances of hooking one of the largest and strongest fish in freshwater.

Recent regulations in Oregon limit Sturgeon retention opportunity on the main-stem Columbia River from the Wauna power lines downstream to Buoy 10, as well as Youngs Bay and some Washington tributaries. Our Astoria trophy Sturgeon fishing trips can be an action-packed day, with the possibility of catching multiple oversize Sturgeon.

Our trips involve anchoring in shallow water near sand flats, usually 5-10 feet deep, where Sturgeon (40-200lbs+) often put on a show by jumping out of the water.

We provide all top-of-the-line Sturgeon fishing gear, and no prior fishing experience is necessary to enjoy our Sturgeon fishing trips. Book your adventure with our Astoria, Oregon, Sturgeon fishing guides today!
