With the Columbia River muddy from all the flooding, getting on a solid bite has taken some work. Tonight, Pro Guide Mike jumped in the boat with me, and we made the best of tough river conditions. After hunting for clean water, we finally found a stretch that looked right—and the edge rods went to work.

We put 10 nice walleye in the boat before the next storm rolled through. Launched at 4:30, back to the dock by 10:30, and packed with good memories and stories from the night.

Let’s get you out after some of these awesome fish. This is our favorite time of year—when the big ones show up and every trip feels like a hunt for something special.
