Lewis River - May 7th, 2008
supplied by: Angler's Guide Service
RECORDED: 
65 °
FISHING: Great
Lewis in great shape with 4 ft of vis and running at 5600 cfs.
Springers slow to start but showing up more each day.
The best techinques in this early season has been fishing cut plug herring in green label size on a size 20 diver. Have also had good success with T-4 flatfish, magnum wiggle warts, k-13 kwikfish or k-15 kwikfish. The best colors have been Silve/char bill, Silver/red bill, blue scale, green hornet and gold.
As more fish start to stack up we will start to switch over to Eggs/shrimp combo or eggs/sardine combo hover fished in the deep holes or back bounced in the shallower holes. One of the other killer baits will be Dyed pink prawns fish by themselves or with a spinner in front of them.
Water is warming up and so our the springers. This should get better each day.

Lewis River - March 23rd, 2008
supplied by: Columbia River Fishing
FISHING: Excellent
Its April already and spring is looking better everyday. J and L Guided Sportfishing is gearing up for Spring fishing on the Columbia, Cowlitz, Kalama and Lewis rivers. With winter steelhead season over and a new 18' Smithrock Riverboat and 2 25' Alumaweld Super Vees await christening on the waters of Southwest Washington. Spring time is one of the best times for an angler in Washington.
Begginning in March, 269,300 spring chinook salmon start entering the Columbia river bound for the Cowlitz, Kalama and Lewis rivers as well as the upper tributaries above Bonneville dam. This years run will be the third largest since 1977. We will start fishing March 25th between the mouths of the Kalama and Lewis rivers on the Columbia until the lower river closes to all fishing on April 4th. Then we will fish above I-5 for the remainder of the Columbia's season. A majority of this run consists of 4 year old fish with some 5 year olds mixed in. These 4 year old fish average 12-25 pounds. Looking to catch the best eating salmon in the world? Springers are it so don't delay and call today to reserve your date. Stop wishing and lets go fishing!!!
Mid-April we will move to fishing the North Fork of the Lewis and Kalama rivers. May is the month for maximum fishing opportunity. Spring Chinook fishing is at its peak with 4-7 "hook-ups" a day. I can't think of a more exciting time witnessing these fish smack a bait-wrapped K15 Kwikfish, a Brads diver and bait combo while backtrolling, or hover fishing "cocktail" baits in the deep holes of both rivers.Summerrun Steelhead are also in the rivers at the same time making for an added bonus! They are chrome-bright, powerful, and add an extra excitement to the day. Averaging 12-18 pounds, we incidently catch several of these beauties every spring salmon season.
We are currently taking reservations for Columbia, Lewis and Kalama rivers. Jet boat trips on the Columbia and Lewis rivers for 4 anglers are at a special price of just $580.00 and 2 person driftboat trips on the Kalama are $325.00.Additional information can be obtained online at http://www.jandlguidedsportfishing.com and http://columbiariveranglers.com or by phone at 206-920-2428

Lewis River - May 15th, 2007
supplied by: Angler's Guide Service
RECORDED: 
83 °
FISHING: Excellent
River is in great shape with 4 ft of vis and med low flow.
It's all Springers now. The springers in and building in numbers each day.
A fair amount of springers have been caught down at the mouth trolling herring. I like to fish a 5 ft leader with a 1 ft dropper to my weight. Fish herring in Red, Green or Blue sizes as each year that like a little something different.
The fish have moved up river and spread out form the mouth all the way to the hatchery. Fish divers and Herring, M-2 Flatfish or t-4 flatfish. I will tend to fish two diver and herring on my back two rods and then two plugs on the front two. For plug colors stick with Silver, Gold, Silver/Char, Cop Car, Blue Scale, Green Weenie, Met Pink or Flounder.
Fish are stacked up in some of the deeper holes so hover fishing has been very good. Eggs with Shrimp, Sardine, Prawns or just eggs have been good. Prawns are starting to work very well also.
The peak of the season will be the first week in May.
