Astoria, Oregon Salmon Fishing

Mike Carey and Rob and Hillary Holman, alongside expert guide Matt Myers of Double M Outdoors, launch out of Astoria, Oregon eager to hook into some of the region's prized Chinook and coho salmon. The team employs a smart fishing setup using a 16-ounce lead combined with a Pro Troll Flasher, featuring anchovy and Hoochie bait. Matt shares his hot tip of the day: using breakaway flashers to ensure a better fight with the fish. 

While they encounter some tough luck with fish popping off the hooks, the determination of the crew shines through as they swap out leaders and continue their pursuit. The Columbia River always giveth, as she does taketh away! Don't worry, though - we always make it out with a haul!
