We had an awesome time fishing Buoy 10 with Captain Robert and First Mate Juan. Their knowledge and skill made the trip smooth and enjoyable. Everyone on board caught their salmon limit, with plenty of wilds released along the way. Highly recommend this crew for a great day on the water!

I’d always wanted to try sturgeon fishing on the Columbia River, and Captain Bob made it unforgettable. We landed both great numbers and quality fish, and the entire trip was a blast. Easily a 10/10 experience—I’d go again in a heartbeat!

Foggy skies and picky fish made for a tough start, but Captain Bob never gave up. He worked hard to find the right spot, and I ended up landing my very first two Cohos. We had a few more bites that slipped away, but with his knowledge and guidance, my companion caught her first 24" Coho, and another angler hooked a couple of Jacks. In the end, we had the biggest catch of the day and, with four of us fishing, brought in 8 total and kept 4. Captain Bob’s dedication and extra effort turned a slow day into a memorable one!

They say the Columbia River is full of surprises, and our trip to Buoy 10 with Captain Robert proved it true. My wife and I set out expecting a nice day on the water, but it turned into so much more. The sun was out, the river was calm, and before long the action kicked off. My rod bent hard, and after a great fight I landed a hefty coho salmon. Not long after, my wife reeled in her own impressive catch. These fish weren’t small—they were big, powerful, and a blast to bring in. Captain Robert’s guidance made it all seamless, and his dog Molly kept us laughing with her playful energy between bites. What started as a good outing became a trip we’ll never forget. The fish were strong, the company was great, and every moment felt special. By the time we headed back with a cooler full and big smiles, we were already talking about booking the next one. It wasn’t just about catching fish—it was about the fun, the memories, and a day that couldn’t have been better.

This trip was fantastic! We targeted both steelhead and crab and succeeded in catching both. The boat was spotless, the crew was informative, and the captain’s expertise shone through every aspect of our two-day charter.

My spouse and I spontaneously arranged a trip with Captain Bob. Communication was nearly instantaneous and consistently reliable. Thanks to Bob's extensive knowledge of the area, we successfully caught some impressive fish. His enthusiasm for fishing matched ours, and he even played some fantastic tunes. If you're hesitant about booking with Robert Vernon, don't be—just go for it! You won't be disappointed or miss out. He presented the perfect opportunity, and it was a fishing adventure to remember! P.S. If you're a dog lover, ask him to bring Beau along :)

We headed out to Oregon for our first shot at catch-and-release sturgeon fishing. It turned out to be an amazing day on the water, and it seemed like we were the only ones reeling them in that morning. Captain Robert Vernon was fantastic, and his boat was spotless. He came prepared with at least three different baits to make sure we had the best chance at landing some sturgeon. I'm pretty sure that's why we had such a successful day. Unlike some other charters we've tried before, this one was a real pleasure. My sons are already planning to bring their friends along for another round. Thanks for the fantastic fishing experience!

We linked up with Cap’n Bob (Robert) at Hammond Boat Bay and had a day of bottom fishing. The boat was comfy, and Bob's knowledge about the area, water conditions, and tide-driven currents was impressive. As a bonus, Captain Bob's dog, Beau, joined us unexpectedly, adding to the adventure. We explored the Bouy 10 area, local jetties (cue pics of seals), and even caught sight of whales! Despite the slow start that morning (probably blamed on the perfect weather), we still reeled in enough fish for an amazing lunch, with leftovers for dinner. Sure, there might be bigger boats out there, but spending the day with a guide who knows where the fish are is the real deal. My son and I wholeheartedly recommend Out Fishin'. Trust me, you won't be let down.
