Spring Chinook "Springers!"
Superior strength, fighting ability, and excellent meat quality combine to make Spring Chinook one of the most popular game fish of the Northwest.
Typical springers run from 10 to 30 pounds and can be taken using a variety of methods including: back bouncing bait, diver and bait, kwikfish, and bobber and bait.
Beginning in April we run drift boat trips on the North and South Santiam Rivers through June.
Summer Steelhead
Summer Steelheading begins in April and runs through July on the North and South Santiam Rivers.
Fishing from drift boats we use several techniques to catch these exciting fish, such as, pulling plugs, diver and bait, and drifting corkies and/or bait.
Enjoy great fishing during a wonderful time of the year on the river!
