Post by: HillHound on June 16, 2019, 08:57:31 PM: Thanks everyone for the tips on guides. I hope to get booked with One so I can go out and learn the ropes of this fishery. I fished the lower Columbia A lot but that has been 20+ years ago and I have not had a chance since then. Hopefully we can start seeing some positive reports and pictures of successful trips out
