Experience Columbia River Salmon Fishing: Anvil Outdoors Guide Service

Come and experience the Columbia River Salmon fishing adventure of a lifetime with Anvil Outdoors Guide Service. Captain Joel and his team offer novice and family-friendly trips, ensuring that all anglers have a memorable experience. Regardless of your age or skill level, you are welcome to join one of these exceptional excursions.

Fish from the comfort of a brand new 27’ River Wild Elite boat, which can accommodate up to 6 guests. This state-of-the-art vessel is equipped with the latest navigational electronics and powered by a 250 HP V8 Mercury outboard engine.

At Anvil Outdoors, we deliver on our promise to give you the opportunity to target trophy Chinook and Coho Salmon, as well as other exciting species such as Sturgeon, Crabs, Steelhead, and Sockeye Salmon. Whether you prefer trolling or bottom fishing, our experienced guides will tailor the trip to your preferences. And the best part? You get to keep your catch. The captain will even clean and fillet the fish for you before you leave the boat, ensuring your convenience.

Rest assured that all necessary fishing gear will be provided, so there's no need to rent or bring your own equipment. Bottled water will also be available on board, but feel free to bring your own snacks and drinks. Don't forget to purchase your fishing license in advance for a hassle-free experience.
