Schmidty's Guide Service

Schmidty's Guide Service Guided Salmon and Steelhead fishing trips on the Oregon Coast. I am an experienced guide in Oregon and Alaska. Join me for the time of your life. Dress in layers!

fishing the Columbia River including Buoy 10, Willamette River, Wilson River, Trask River, Nestucca, Kilches, Nehalem River, Tillamook Bay, Nehalem Bay, and the Pacific Ocean In addition to being a licensed guide in Oregon and Alaska, I am USCG licensed and have valid CPR and First Aide training. Spend the day on one of the beautiful rivers or bays in North Western Oregon. Enjoy the beautiful s

cenery while wetting your lines for some of Oregon’s prized Salmon or Steelhead. When you fish for Salmon or Steelhead with me, you are giving yourself and your guests the very best guided fishing experience you can find on NW Oregon's beautiful waters. I put in the extra effort both on and off the water for you to have a memory of a lifetime. When you fish with me you will find comfort, safety, patience and skill. The Pacific Northwest is well known for it’s Sport Fisheries. Whether it is Chinook, Coho, or Steelhead that you’re after, we have some of the best rivers around. I have had the privilege of growing up fishing these rivers all my life, and through the years I have learned that nothing can replace the time we spend outdoors. It’s a time to create memories with friends, new and old. A time you will never forget, and stories you may tell years down the road. About the 20lb Steelhead you caught or the one that got away. So whether you’re a first timer looking to get your line wet, an avid angler looking to have some fun, or someone trying to reward your employees for a job well done. What to bring:
Fishing licenses/Salmon Steelhead tags can be purchased at any sporting goods store, Fred Meyer, Bi-mart, or Wal-Mart. DON'T FORGET THEM!! Early mornings can be VERY cold even if the forecast says the day will be a warm one. Rain Gear –Bring waterproof shoes pants and a jacket even if it’s not supposed to rain. It’s good to block wind and water spray. Lunch- fishing can work up an appetite
Bring any medications that you need. (Let me know in advance if you need any special help for the trip so I can plan accordingly.)

Had the opportunity to take advantage of a rare day off and go out with a fellow guide for something I dont normally get to do.. we had a blast on a Dory trip today with David Paschke out of pacific city..for those that dont know what a dory trip is i highly recommend you check it out.. you launch on the beach and come sliding back in onto the sand at the end🤯 .. Ended up with ling, rockfish, and delicious crab! I really sucked at taking photos because I was too busy having fun 🤷‍♂️🤣 but ill post what I got !
If any of you are looking to get out and experience these amazing trips get ahold of David and get on his books while you can!
