Recommend Charter Fishing NW Oregon Coast?

Not necessarily fly-fishing related, but thought ya'll might have
recommendations.

I was going to go charter fishing for salmon out of Astoria, but
apparently my guide has flaked on me. He was supposed to contact
me with the final details, but hasn't and isn't returning phone
calls.

Anyway, I'm interested in going out after halibut next spring, but
after this experience I don't want to waste any more time on
unreliable people.

Anyone have good (or bad) experiences with charters/guides on the
northern oregon or southern washington coast? (Salmon, halibut or
sturgeon) I've caught rockfish on the party boats and while it's
fun fishing it's not what I'm looking for.

Thanks,
- Ken

I was hoping that someone had personal experience. I found my
current guide from ifish.net.

Possibly the sweetest thank you note we've seen on ROFF to date.

Say, "You're welcome", B. J. :)

who assumes, given that darwin was right, that genus ****-weasels'
remarkable reproductive success can hardly be attributed to their abysmal
camouflage.

Go back and keep playing with RW and Snedeker on your F4 thread.
I ain't interested.

And yet.......here you are. :)

Wolfgang
who, were he not interested in playing, would probably not bother to show
up.

He could have called up HR at Intel. They take people fishing, in boats
on the ocean and on the Deschutes.

He COULD have gotten an education.....an honest job.....parental
guidance.....human friends.....good manners......

He probably still can.

Wolfgang
but, he won't.
