A catch is a catch….even if by others….at least on my boat

Coho, Chinoook, bottom fish make for a fun weekend even in the wind and rain!
Consider trolling with pro trolls and spinners in the Columbia River, worked for us.
Great day, great fishing, good company. Springers are the rage, and I love that fishing, but the scenery and action on the ocean are sometimes too much for me to pass on.
I was using a smaller curly tail than usual, with an eight-ounce jig head. The flutter jigs worked best, but my presentation did get my limit of ling cod and some sea bass.

Spring Chinook angling is open to both boat and bank anglers from Buoy 10 at the mouth of the Columbia River upstream to Beacon Rock. Beacon Rock to Bonneville Dam is open to bank angling only.
Effective March 16, spring Chinook angling will be open from Tower Island powerlines upstream to the Oregon/Washington border above McNary Dam, plus the banks between Bonneville Dam and Tower Island powerlines.
White sturgeon retention is closed from Buoy 10 upstream to McNary Dam but remains an option for catch and released fishing.
The McNary Pool is open to the retention of legal white sturgeon through July 31.
Trout anglers continue to do well in Southwest Washington lakes.
They'll be no smelt dipping on the Cowlitz River this year because the run is too poor.
