    The Columbia River in Oregon is one of the great rivers of North America, supporting Chinook salmon, coho salmon, steelhead, white sturgeon, and American shad runs that draw anglers from across the Pacific Northwest. The Oregon section from Astoria to the Cascade Mountains encompasses some of the most iconic salmon and steelhead fishing in the world. Spot Features: The Columbia River Oregon section from the coast to the Cascade Mountains supports some of the most diverse and productive fishing in North America. Chinook and coho salmon by back-trolling and drift fishing, white sturgeon by anchoring with bait on the bottom, steelhead with float-and-jig setups, shad with small darts in spring. Seasonality: Chinook salmon are the primary target in the Columbia River (Oregon section) from late summer through fall (July-October). Coho salmon follow from September through November. Steelhead run in fall and spring. White sturgeon are present year-round with regulated harvest periods. Shad make a spring spawning run in May-June.
