Grande Ronde Steelhead Fishing

November 3, 2019 by Reel Time Fishing

We are now offering float trips on the Grande Ronde for steelhead! The Grande Ronde offers some spectacular steelhead water that is conducive to many types of fishing techniques. Drifting, trolling, bobber dogging and bobber & jig all produce very well. Our guides Travis and Jeff floated Friday with success. This trip is very scenic and relaxing with very little competition. We are taking bookings now for up to groups of 2. Seats and days are extremely limited.

We recently went out with Toby and Bryce and it was amazing! Everyone on the boat limited out but not just limited out,... everyone went home with one king and one silver. It was a beautiful day on the water and I can't recommend this outfit more. The only downer was on us, we should have booked the crabbing too. Next year we are booking two days so we can get enough fishing AND crabbing in. It's a must do experience!read more

We booked a Bouy 10 salmon trip with Reel Time after a conversation at the Boise Sportsmans Show in 2019. Well worth... the wait! We highly recommend Toby and 1st Mate Olivia for a Columbia River salmon trip! This was the best experience we've had on the Columbia after going numerous times with other guides the past 10 years. Toby was friendly and put us on fish. You can feel the passion he has for fishing by talking with him. Nothing was better than seeing him work with his daughter, who was top notch with keeping the bait fresh! They helped our 13 year old land her first ever salmon. Toby was helpful and great to talk with, he is absolutely a knowledgeable and seasoned guide. We can't wait to book another experience. We are definately planning another salmon trip with Reel Time as well as walleye on the Snake! We had a great time, caught fish, and all of us came back with great memories. Thank you Reel Time. Thank you Toby and Olivia!read more

Toby and Lyle went above and beyond in working to get us walleye. Both obviously know what they are doing. They have an... easy going attitude but are serious about getting you on fish. I couldn't be more impressed with them.read more

Our group had an amazing experience with Reel Time Fishing. We stayed 2 nights at the very comfortable Lenore Lodge and... the place was awesome. We spent 1 day fishing with Jim Carter and the next day fishing with Barry Howard. Both guides and their deck hands were very professional and worked their butts off to make sure we all enjoyed ourselves. Everyone in our group landed multiple fish and we all had a great time.read more

What a great experience we had fishing with Reel Time. We fished many different ways and caught fish. I have fished... with Toby and two of his other guided and really enjoyed all of them and they know where the fish are. They all cook hamburgers or bratwurst at lunch. Thanks Reel Timeread more

Great fishing. Guide even brought a heater which was really nice to have. Only complaint is that he is the only guide... I have ever fished with who wouldn’t allow me to hold the fish for a photo. He had to “help”... it was pretty lame. Said he’s had too many people drop them in the boat. I know how to hold a steelhead and have caught even bigger salmon. Then in the photos I did get he shoved his hand up into its native gills... I couldn’t have possibly done worse to a fish we weren’t able to keep. I wonder if I was a man if he would have let me. I’m guessing it wouldn’t have been an issue. For now I have what would have been two amazing pics of some beautiful fish with dudes head in the background helping me hold my catch like I’m squeamish or incapable. Not putting those one the wall.read more

First fishing trip that I had ever been on with a guide and I had a great experience!! I dont even call myself a fisher... man but with reel time fishing it was so simple. My directions for how to operate the pole, what depth my bait should be in the water, all of that was laid out and explained so simply that even I could understand it!! I strongly recommend you use Reel Time Fishing for your next fishing trip!read more

I personally caught the largest Chinook Salmon out of the Columbia River ever with Toby, Son Tanner, and Nephew Tyler... on 8/31/2020. We all caught our limits and then teased the small mouth. It was a epic day and would love to do it all again! Thanks also to Jack for letting me park my rig at his place for the day, most appreciated.Thanks Toby!Eric Hillread more
