At Vern’s Fishing Experience, we are committed to providing an unforgettable fishing adventure across the Pacific Northwest. With over 20 years of experience, Guide Vernon Cross has spent a lifetime mastering the region’s waters, specializing in walleye, sturgeon, salmon, steelhead, and shad. Whether you’re a beginner or a seasoned angler, Vernon’s passion and expertise ensure an exciting and productive day on the water.

Operating a 2016 River Wild Boats(25’ x 90’) powered by a Yamaha VMAX 250 hp engine, we accommodate up to six guests per trip, offering a comfortable and efficient ride at speeds up to 55 mph. We fish top destinations like the Columbia River, Snake River, Drano Lake, and Wind River, targeting Chinook and Coho salmon, walleye, sturgeon, and steelhead in some of the most productive waters in Washington and Oregon.

Customers are responsible for providing their own fishing licenses, which can be purchased at various locations in Washington and Oregon. A 50% deposit is required upon booking, and if cancellations are made with at least 14 days' notice, we will refund all but 10% of the deposit. Our goal is to make your experience stress-free, so you can focus on enjoying a day filled with exciting fishing action.
