2004 - Lowe Roughneck 18' boat
powered by
2002- 115/80
Johnson Bombadeer Jet.

All fishing equipment is provided (unless you have your own that you prefer to use). Equipment includes 10' to 12' noodle rods with open face reels spooled with 8# test line. Spawn bags under a bobber or jigs with wax worms are used as primary tackle for steelhead.
Casting plugs such as Thunderstick Jrs. and Shad Rap Rapalas are our primary method in the fall for salmon.  We will also use skien spawn and the drop back method along with skien spawn drifted under a bobber.

Boat is totally open, so clothing suitable for weather is necessary (waders not required). 45,000 BTU propane heater for winter fishing is provided.

Rates are:
$250.00 per day for 2 people
$150.00 per day for 1 person

Can schedule trips anytime from Monday thru Saturday. We will spend at least 8 hours on the water or longer to make sure your trip is successful. The boat is equipped to fit 2 people for fishing very comfortably. Salmon run is basically the last week of August through the middle of October. Steelhead action picks up at that time and lasts through the winter. We fish the entire winter, weather permitting.
