April has kicked off with a bang here at Fisher’s Catch Outfitters. As always, the team is staying after it chasing walleye on both the Columbia and Snake Rivers, fishing out of the Tri-Cities, Washington and Umatilla, Oregon. Right now, the walleye is active and feeding hard as they push toward the spawn this month. We’re finding success across the board jig and worm, jig and plastics, and trolling crankbaits are all producing. Now, they’re not too picky and will hit just about anything we’re putting in front of them. That said, we do expect things to shift as the spawn gets underway. The fish will still be there, but they’ll get a little more stubborn and less aggressive, which means anglers may need to slow down and work a bit harder to stay on the bite for a couple weeks. But right now? The bite is strong. This is the way to take advantage [...]

Man, oh man what a week it was for the Fisher’s Catch Outfitters Pro Guides. The third week of March brought us a little bit of everything, and the team stayed busy on both the Columbia and Snake Rivers, putting clients on fish day and night. With the trophy walleye bite still going strong after dark, our night trips continued to produce quality fish, including several pushing into that coveted Dirty 30 range. A few anglers checked off bucket-list catches, landing new personal bests and earning some well-deserved bragging rights. The night bite had its ups and downs, but the guys stayed after it and made it happen. During the day, it was all about filling coolers. The guides worked hard to stay on the eater walleye bite, and it paid off. Plenty of fish came over the rails, giving clients the opportunity to head home with full bags and plans for some great fish [...]

It was another banner week of fishing for the Fisher’s Catch Outfitters crew here in the third week of March. The team delivered an unforgettable experience for clients, covering everything from daytime eater walleye to nighttime trophy hunts. Plenty of eater-sized fish hit the boats for those looking to fill their freezers, while the trophy crews put in the work after dark and were rewarded with Dirty 30s hitting the deck. Several anglers walked away with new personal bests and of course, a little Dirty 30 jewelry to remember it by. Big fish, full bags, and memories made all week long. That’s what it’s all about.

Another Strong Week on the Water  and also anther banner show week in Sandy, Utah for Tony and his wife Angel.  It was another solid week of fishing for the Fisher’s Catch Outfitters Pro Guides. We stayed busy on both the Columbia and Snake River, chasing walleye day and night. The guides put clients on trophy walleye after dark and quality eater walleye during the day, keeping rods bent and coolers filling up. There was no shortage of fish, and more importantly, no shortage of smiles. From first-time anglers to seasoned fishermen, everyone had a great time on the water. If you’re looking to get out and experience this kind of fishing for yourself, give us a call at Fisher’s Catch Outfitters and get your trip or seat reserved. We look forward to fishing with you.

The Fishers Catch Outfitters team was back on the Columbia River kicking off the first week of March with some awesome fishing. It was a strong start to the season, with the crew covering multiple fisheries and putting clients on fish across the board. Some of the team took advantage of the one-day keeper sturgeon opener downriver, finding success and sending clients home with fresh fish. Meanwhile, the rest of the captains stayed on the grind, targeting daytime eater walleye and chasing trophy fish after dark. The daytime bite has been solid, with eater walleye hitting the deck while jigging and running worm harnesses. As the sun goes down, the action shifts gear the night crews are getting it done, putting clients on trophy walleye using vertical jigs and HAVOC HD30s. It’s shaping up to be a great start to the spring season, and the FCO team is dialed in and ready to keep the [...]

We just wrapped up a great group from North Dakota and rolled straight into a few days on the water with an awesome crew out of Wyoming. Today we were joined by Joe, Lynn, and Dave all on a mission to chase down those coveted “dirty 30” walleye. Lynn checked that box with us last season, but Joe has been grinding it out for the past four years trying to land his. Well… this was his year. Joe not only broke that 30-inch mark but went even bigger—landing an absolute Columbia River giant at 31 inches. A true trophy and a moment well earned. We covered water from the Tri-Cities, Washington down to Boardman, Oregon, working both the Columbia and Snake Rivers to make it happen. When you put in time and stay after it, days like this are what it’s all about. While we were doing our part to get things done on our [...]

It was three great days on the water for Terry and Doug as Pro Guide Tony spent long night hours chasing trophy Columbia River walleye with the two North Dakota boys. Their mission was simple find the giants, get them caught, pictured, measured, and safely released. The trip turned into one they’ll never forget. Over the course of the three days, plenty of quality fish hit the deck, including some true Columbia River trophies. Doug landed his personal best walleye, a beautiful 30-inch fish weighing in at 12 pounds. Not to be outdone, Terry hooked into a true Columbia River giant an incredible 32-inch walleye tipping the scales at 14.6 pounds. It was an unforgettable adventure filled with big fish, big smiles, and memories that will last a lifetime. The guys had such a great trip that they’re already on the schedule for next year, hoping to come back and top this one.

It was a full day of fishing across the Columbia River for the Fishers Catch Outfitters fleet. With several captains on the water, we pretty much had the river covered from Tri-Cities all the way down to Boardman, Oregon. No matter where you looked, FCO boats were hard at work putting clients on fish. From trophy class fish to eater walleye, the action stayed steady throughout the day. Our crews were running both trolling and jigging programs, and the fish were coming over the rail for happy anglers all day long. Whether it was day trips or nighttime runs, the bite was there and our guides made it happen. It was one of those days when everything came together great fishing, great clients, and plenty of fish hitting the deck. Safe to say, the FCO crew stacked them up today!

It was a couple of great nights on the water for Mark and the crew who made the trip over from the west side. With two days booked, we mixed it up launching out of Tri-Cities, Washington one night and Irrigon, Oregon the next. Changing scenery didn’t slow the action one bit. The fish were ready to play. Rods stayed bent, nets were busy, and plenty of eater walleye made their way into the coolers. On top of that, a few new personal bests were set, making the trip even more memorable for the group. There’s just something special about Columbia River night fishing calm water, glowing lights, and the thump of a big walleye in the dark. While the night crew were putting in work, FCO Pro Guide Steve was on the daytime shift and stayed on the bite as well, putting his crew on some quality eater walleye. Day or night, Fishers Catch [...]
