OUR FISHERIES

KOKANEE

Kokanee are landlocked sockeye salmon found in the Pacific Northwest’s cold, clear lakes. We target Kokanee trolling. They offer a strong fight and are prized for their firm, flavorful flesh.

SALMON / STEELHEAD

Pacific salmon (Chinook, and Coho) and steelhead are prized species in the Pacific Northwest, known for their powerful runs and thrilling fights. Both species are sought after for sport and table fare, with anglers using trolling, or drift fishing, techniques to land these iconic fish

STURGEON

Sturgeon are prehistoric giants found in the Pacific Northwest’s rivers, particularly the Columbia River. Known for their size, with some reaching over 10 feet, they offer a challenging and rewarding catch. These slow-growing fish are prized for their strength and the thrill of catching and releasing one of the region's most iconic freshwater species.
