Astoria Oregon Fishing Guide and Charters

Astoria Oregon Fishing Guide and Charters

I run a fishing charter service in Astoria, Oregon. Our guided fishing excursions set sail from the Port of Astoria and adjacent marinas. Astoria is among my preferred fishing locations on the Oregon coast for several reasons. The area’s diverse range of fish species, such as salmon, sturgeon, lingcod, halibut, and seabass, is one of these reasons.

Walleye fishing 2024

Have you been dreaming about catching a big walleye? Well dream no more!

In May, Marvin’s Guide Service will start walleye fishing trips on the Columbia River for the 2024 season. Now, if you like fish tacos, you will love walleye.
