They caught enough giant Sturgeon to actually do two entire shows !!!!!
They caught several Sturgeon over SEVEN feet in length with the biggest one over ELEVEN FEET in length.
The first show aired in 2004 and WON the 2004 BEST FRESHWATER FISHING SHOW OF THE YEAR.
The second show will air in a few weeks.
Northland teamed up with Wolf Creek Productions and the Visual Tec folks and we came up with seven TV shows that will be airing from October 2005 through June 2006.We caught a lot of huge fish and came up with some spectacular footage, including several magnificent jumps.
The shows will be:
Outdoor America and the Wild Side on the Outdoor Channel
Woolridge classic outdoors on the men's channel
Two shows on Hi Definition TV
Women's Sport fishing and Fishing Hotspots on channel 216 on Dish
You can also purchase video's from the Visual Tec shows on sturgeon and shad from Cabella's,
Wal-Mart, and Bass Pro Shops
We owe a special thanks to the Dolce Skamania Lodge and the Washington State Bureau of Tourism for their help in putting together the award winning TV show in 2004. Thanks again to the many fine people associated with these organizations.

Have you ever wondered what it would be like to reel in a fish that is over ten feet long?

Northland Guide Service is equipped to take up to five people on a fishing adventure. So bring family, friends or business associates. You can fish for one day or book a multiple day trip. You can fish from the mighty waters of the Columbia river or from the scenic streams of SW Washington. You will fish from the deck of our custom 20' welded aluminum covered guide boat. Licensed, Insured, and Coast guard approved..
Go Sturgeon fishing, Salmon fishing, or Steelhead fishing for a combination trip of these hard fighting fish. Sturgeon fishing in the lower Columbia is excellent year round. We will anchor over one of our holes when sturgeon fishing and bait our hooks with whatever is running at that particular time. The two most common baits are smelt and shad.
Salmon fishing is excellent several months of the year. When Salmon fishing we will anchor on the outgoing tide and troll the rest of the day.
Steelhead fishing is also good several months of the year. When Steelhead fishing we will also anchor on the outgoing tide and then troll the remaining time. You can fish for Salmon, Sturgeon and Steelhead at the same time at certain times of the year. If you like to stream fish we offer bank fishing on the smaller streams in the area. Watching huge Salmon and Steelhead make their way up a small stream to spawn is a thrill in itself.
The Sturgeon that make their way up the Columbia river can exceed 12’ in length and weigh close to 1000 lbs. Salmon have been caught over 60 lbs and Steelhead will tip the scales in the mid 20 lb range. So if you like to catch big fish or even different species of big fish in the same trip. Drop us a line and we can customize a trip for you.
