Contrary to popular belief, the true steelhead is a native rainbow trout. These rainbows have access to the ocean, where they spend time growing and maturing in the sea until they return to spawn in freshwater. Steelhead do not die after spawning, unlike salmon. Knowing where the steelhead runs are located is a must for a successful fishing expedition. Steelhead have very erratic patterns and while one area may be peaking in the winter, other areas may peak in the spring, summer, or fall. To successfully wade through these ever-changing fishing conditions, the service of an experienced guide is essential.

Jordan has found great success fishing the waters of the Columbia River from Lions Day Park in Woodland, Washington. Woodland is just north of Portland. To get there from Portland, drive on 1-5 North for 26 miles. Then take Exit #22 (Dike Road) and go west about 2.5 miles until you see a 90-degree turn to the left. Follow it left for .5 miles and you will see the sign “Lions Day Park” on your right. Turn and follow the road to the river.
