For my wifes birthday

[Soldier5]

My wife wants to go salmon fishing for her birthday and I was wondering if anyone has any recommendations for a charter service? I want this trip to be fun for her and want to give her the best opportunity to catch some fish. I would love to take her myself but I'm just not up to speed on my salmon fishing skills.....yet. We live in Lacey so anything close or within a couple hours would be great. Thanks for any help anyone is willing to offer.

November 18th, I have a 4 day weekend next week so that's when we wanted to go. Is that too soon?

What kind of Salmon does she want to catch?  If its chum, you dont need a guide for that.  Take her to Minter creek.  For late Kings or Silvers, I recommend Paul from GreatNWfishing guide service.  He has got me into the fish evrytime.  PM sent.

Right now is a great time to fish Tilamook bay in Oregon. BIG KINGS!
My buddy is a guide and has been doing well in Tilamook. you could do that trip and spend some time on the Oregon coast and I bet she would love you for it.

If you were intrested I could take you guys sturgeon fishing. I'm not a guide but could use some company in my boat.

Thanks to all who posted and pointed me in the right direction. I'll be sure to post pics after our trip.

Try Phil Stephens at Mystical Legends.  Probably a very long shot to get an open day, but he knows his stuff and you will catch fish.

affordable, good conversation in the boat, and a great fisherman who knows his areas. I took my wife, brother, and futures sister-in-law on an afternoon trip and we had 7 take downs and boated 4 nice stealhead back in July.
