The Big C. Aka 'the Ocean', is home to the single largest runs of salmon and steelhead to any river on Earth. Mostly a troll fishery due to its size, we mainly fish this river above and below Bonneville Dam for Chinook salmon in April/May and August/September. That said, during those times there's no telling what you'll find on the end of your line as the Columbia has all five species of Pacific salmon, steelhead, sturgeon, shad and even a few warmwater species like walleye and smallmouth bass. It's a jungle out there!!
