The Columbia River
Fishing for Walleye on the Columbia River
The Columbia River is one of the best hot spots around for
walleye. There are many great spots along this river where
the Walleye are large and abundant, just waiting to be
caught. Preacher's Eddy is one of the favorite spots for
anglers on this river, and this spot is really effective during
the early months and when the water level is high. The
Willows is another all time favorite on this river, and this
spot is located just below Preacher's Eddy. On the Oregon
state side of the river, starting at the Giles French Park
ramp and going all the way down past the grain elevators,
and these areas are also very good fishing spots during
high water periods and early in the season.

Walleye fishing on the Columbia River improves
throughout the whole river area come May and June, and
this is when the fishing really starts happening. Keep an
eye out for bottoms which are rocky, and the water is
between twelve and thirty feet deep. The Avery ramp and
Browns Island area offer excellent reefs which are usually
teeming with Walleye around this time of year. Maryhill
State Park, which is situated on Highway 97 past the
bridge, is an excellent spot for anglers on both sides of the
river. Miller Island also has been marked as a favorite spot
by many anglers during the early summer months.
Walleye fishing early in the season past the point of the
John Day Dam on the Columbia River may not be that
good, but once March hits all of this changes. The months
of March and April are when the spawning preparations
start, and the Walleye start to pack up close to the dam,
below the actual structure. This is when the trophy Walleye
can be caught easily, with weights of up to fourteen
pounds. During this period the water level is normally high,
and the fish will hang out in the eddies in the river for
protection against the strong currents.
Towards the end of April, the Walleye start to spread out to
different areas of the Columbia River because the
spawning is ending. They will bite much more consistently,
with a larger number being caught, but catching that big
trophy Walleye will not be as easy as it was earlier in the
year. Now is the time to locate deep areas of the river with
rocky bottoms, because the odds are this is where the fish
will be.
Bottom walking rigs that have night crawlers attached to
the tip can be used during trolling to get the attention of the
Walleye and get some action. This method is preferred by
many anglers when it is impossible to vertical jig because
of high flows. Spinners, crankbaits, stickbaits, and jigs can
be used as well by experienced anglers, and the main
thing is to keep your bait on the bottom, because this is
where the Walleye feed.
