Fishers Catch Outfitters Fishing Report

Keeper Sturgeon June 30th

It was another great day for the Fishers Catch Outfitters crew on the mighty Columbia River. Got to spent the day with good buddy Ron chasing sturgeon. We started on the Snake River landing a nice keeper early in the morning, that one at 48" swam away. We then moved down river and out to the Columbia finding some nice sturgeon. We managed a 38", 46", 45" and a 7 footer. It was a great day and I got to harvest one of these great fish for freezer. Still have some open days if you are looking to get in on some of this action. The season will close July 31st.

June 23rd day 2 with Casey and Christopher

Fishers Catch Outfitters hit the Columbia River early on Sunday. Casey and Christopher wanted to get a over-sized sturgeon to The Les Schwab boat. The Columbia was big with the wind blowing out of the south west, but we stuck it out and managed to land 5 sturgeon with the biggest one just at 7 feet. We wanted to get a 9 foot or better but fell just short when we broke a big one (who knows how big) off. All in all had an amazing weekend fishing with some of my great friends and getting them on their first sturgeon.  

June 22 Sturgeon / Shad with Great Friends!

The Fishers Catch Outfitters crew go to spend the weekend with some buddies from Salt Lake City Utah. Casey and Christopher traveled up to spend some time on the Columbia River relaxing and chasing some fish. We headed out in the afternoon to get in on some of the Shad mania, we did not get disjointed as we managed to catch 40 in and hour. Keeping a couple of the nice small ones for some evening sturgeon actions.  The sturgeon bite was a little slow as we bounced around from spot to spot. The wind was not allowing us to hit all the areas we wanted but we did manage to hook into a nice 46" fish. This is Casey's first sturgeon ever, so all in all a success and a ton of fun.

June 21st Walleye

Fishers Catch Outfitters had a great time with the family from Big Sky country. With the wind blowing and making the Columbia River a little bigger than normal we set out to find our walleye pulling crank baits. It proved to be a little tougher then expected. The flows were down and the fish seemed like they did not want to play for a little while. We did manage to find a nice mess of walleye to send home with these great folks. Once we had the walleye we were looking for we caped of the day with some fast and furious Shad action. Rods were going off everywhere. This is the fist time I have managed to bore a 14 year old with to many fish, lol.. Great day all in all and look forward to many more.    

June 12 Keeper Sturgeon

What a great evening of Sturgeon fishing for the FCO-Fishers Catch Outfitters crew. We go to spend the evening fishing with Ron and Bubba trying to get some keepers in the boat.....It was a little slow at first but we found some. With out first fish coming in just a little short, our second did not disappoint measuring 49", its a keeper!!! Miles landed that fish and it was great to watch. Fish number three was a beast  measuring just a little long at 56" . All in all a great night on the water catching sturgeon! Still have some time let to book a retention sturgeon trip if you are interested. Give us a shout, tight lines.   

June 9th Walleye

The Fishers Catch Outfitters crew hooked up with the Boise folks and Eric for a day on the Columbia River in search of the great eating Walleye. We started the morning off a little slow with a few bites and a few walleye hitting the deck. After moving around a little and finding some good fishing we managed a busy afternoon with a consistent bite and the fish we were looking for. Even though there is no limit to the Walleye fishing catch. The FCO/ LesSchwab boat try's to do a 7 fish per angler limit. We manage a good bag of fish today and go our limits.    

June 1st with the Kolling Crew

Kolling Excavating and Fishers Catch Outfitters hooked up to get a couple of the crew member that have worked hard this spring on the water for a little R & R and some walleye fishing. With the weather holding good we set out to get some Columbia River walleye in the Les Schwab boat, and that is just what we did. We manage to crank up a few and get the rest trolling spinners. The walleye bite is good and it is time to get your trips booked.

May 31 Ferguson Group day 2

It is day 2 for the Ferguson Group. The crew showed up at 6 am to get an early start on bagging some great Columbia river walleye. We started the day pulling up a few trolling crank baits. Moved to a little jigging and managed to boat a couple more. Around lunch we moved down river and trolled spinners/bottom bouncer and finish out are day with the fish we were looking for. Another great day on the Columbia River chasing Walleye.   

May 30 Walleye Ferguson Group Day 1

Once again the Ferguson Group come over from the west side to get in on a little Columbia River walleye action and spend the next 2 days with the Fishers Catch Outfitters crew. With the weather nice and the walleye wanting to play a little we had a great day on the water. The team managed to get the walleye they were looking for on day one and we excited for day two to get started. We had to run around a little to find the number of fish we were looking for but we go them and we had the pleasure of landing a post spawn 8.5 lb fish that we released to play another day.
