Charlie Foster has fished the local area
near Portland, Oregon his entire life for Sturgeon. Sturgeon
is the ONLY fishing guide services Charlie offers so if you
want to fish for Salmon, Steelhead, Bass, Carp or Catfish
you'll need to find another fishing guide service. If
you want to fish for Sturgeon you are at the right place!
Charlie is an expert Sturgeon fishing guide.
Years and years of experience teach one how to catch
Sturgeon including the right time of day to fish for
Sturgeon, the best Sturgeon baits, the currents that big
Sturgeon like best, the traveling patterns and migration
routes Sturgeon take and the depths and structure that
trophy Sturgeon prefer.

There may not be many things
in your life you can own
that are the VERY BEST made.
No matter how big your house
is, someone will have one
that's bigger. There will
always be people with more
jewelry and a more expensive
car. It seems that no matter
how much you spend or what
you do that it's just
impossible to get the best
there is of anything. Well,
that is unless you want to
go Sturgeon fishing.
When
it comes to Sturgeon fishing
it's nice to know that you
can fish with the best
Sturgeon fishing guide in
the Northwest. Lots of
fishing guides offer a
smorgasbord of fishing trips
but they don't specialize in
any particular type of
fishing and their clients
spend most of the day
pointing at other boats and
asking "I wonder what those
guys are using?"
Don't be
that guy! Binoculars are fun
but they should be used to
see the Eagles and not to
try to find out what another
boat is using for bait. YOU
CAN FISH WITH THE BEST
STURGEON FISHING GUIDE ON
THE RIVER. Ask anyone who
has ever fished next to
Charlie Foster and they will
tell you that he catches a
boatload of Sturgeon. Other
guides will call him to see
where the fish are and what
he's using but that varies
so much according to water
temperature, current, water
levels, water clarity and
many more factors that often
Charlie cannot give good
answers to questions other
guides and Sturgeon
fishermen ask. He will say
that I can tell you what
they were eating today and
where I caught them today
but I cannot tell you where
they'll be tomorrow or what
they'll be eating until I
get there and access the
"entire situation." Charlie
ONLY fishes for Sturgeon all
year long and he's done it
all his life and he knows
where to move to if the
Sturgeon are not biting,
what bait to switch to if
they are not eating and what
currents, depths, water
temperatures and what type
of water to look for before
ever dropping an anchor and
most of the time he "looks"
at the water currents
instead of just starting a a
fixed depth from the fish
finder that may have worked
last month when the currents
and water flow were much
different.

In
San
Francisco
Sturgeon
fishing
is
really a
popular
sport
but the
problem
is that
they
just
don't
have
near the
resources
or fish
populations
that we
have
here in
Oregon
so they
often
come up
here to
get in
on what
many
believe
is the
best
Sturgeon
fishing
in the
World.
Check
out
(below)
what
SFGATE
had to
say
about a
recent
trip
they
took
with
Charlie
Foster,
guide of

STURGEON
ADVENTURE
"Hold,
please,
I've got
a
monster
on the
line"
Tom
Stienstra,
Chronicle
Outdoors
Writer
Thursday,
June 4,
2009
On my first cast, I hooked a 7-foot 10-inch, 250-pound
sturgeon.
When I
pulled
back on
the rod,
the fish
yanked
back so
hard
that it
jerked
the rod
tip into
the
water
and
nearly
hauled
me
overboard.
"One of
the
small
ones,"
said
guide
Charlie
Foster
on his
boat,
the
Sturgeon
General.
At dawn Friday, we anchored below Oregon City Falls. In
the
first
five
minutes,
we saw
several
big
sturgeon
jump and
roll on
the
surface,
and I
felt the
glow of
anticipation.
The
Willamette
River is
the
Jurassic
Park of
fishing,
where
you hunt
and
release
the
dinosaurs
of fish.
"My goal
is for
every
person
to catch
the
biggest
fish of
their
life

STURGEON FISHING GUIDE WHO
ONLY FISHES FOR STURGEON
NW Sturgeon Fishing
Adventures (503) 820-1189
|
Washington Sturgeon fishing
guides and Oregon Sturgeon fishing guides
offer trips all over the state and sometimes
catch Sturgeon but sometimes get skunked.
Charlie Foster's Northwest Sturgeon Fishing
Adventures offers STURGEON ONLY FISHING
TRIPS and will always know where to fish. NW
Sturgeon Adventures catches Sturgeon every
trip and it's never a question of "if"
you'll catch fish but "how many you will
catch" and "how long you'll be able to last
before your arms get tired!"

This Columbia River fishery
has consistent year round fishing action.
Columbia River and Willamette river Sturgeon
are awesome fighters and are the largest
freshwater fish in the world. Whether it's keepers at 42" to 60", or
trophy oversize that average from 7 to 12
feet in length and up to 500 lbs Charlie
will make sure you catch them when you book
a trip with NW Sturgeon Adventures.
Sometimes catch rates can run 50 or more
keeper sturgeon a day and 5 to 10 oversize Sturgeon a day making this a non-stop
exciting and super fun fishing experience
and the fishing adventure of a lifetime.

STURGEON FISHING DERBY WINNERS!
Fisherman's Marine Supply, Stevens Marine
and other local sponsors put on an annual Salmon and
Sturgeon Derby. Last year's winner was Charlie
Foster's NW Sturgeon Adventures. When you decide who
to go Sturgeon fishing with why not go with the
best. |
|
|

The fish was caught by Eric Redman aka "The Minnesota
Madman" and was 9 1/2 feet long.
The water temp was only 50 degrees when he jumped in to take this photo of the
Sturgeon.
Sometimes Salmon fishing can be fun. Sometimes
Steelhead fishing can be entertaining. Sometimes
Walleye fishing can be OK, and fishing on a charter
boat is nice if you like being shoulder to shoulder
with up to 20 other people on a boat that keeps
moving while you fight the fish because they don't
want everyone's lines to get tangled.
CALL NOW .....
Unlike other types of fishing where there may be
only a week or two of good fishing and a few months
before and after that where the guides will just try
to fill the boat, Sturgeon fishing is good year
'round. But we'd still like you to
CALL NOW because you'll
feel a whole bunch better knowing that you have a
trip booked (just a small deposit is required) and
we take reservations on a first come first served
basis so you'll want to make sure we have open seats
on the times you have scheduled for vacation. We
have gift certificates, Corporate trips and you are
invited to bring the whole family because EVERYONE
loves to fish for Sturgeon.
