Lots of good sturgeon guides. What area are you gonna be in, columbia runs the whole northern stretch of the state, also what time of year are you hoping to catch. Certain pools close early for retention, and there are times of year that are much better if your wanting to catch some of the big dogs. there's also snake river guides more of a river fishing experience coupled with getting to jet boat up the river. Lot's of different styles of trips. the estuary closer to the ocean is great in the summer.

Wow, I've caught some large sturgeon on the Sacramento River around Grimes, CA. I think my biggest was 7ft long. Nothing like the monster in this picture though

I’ve gotten bit by the sturgeon bug. I’m going to try and fish as many different places as I can. It’s a lot of fun.
Here’s a picture of a 7 1/2 footer with a 35 inch girth that I caught and released a couple days ago. It’s hard to get a good picture with only one guy in the water on a fish that size ?

Wow, that's a big one!! CJ strike reservoir in Idaho has excellent fishing for monster sturgeon, and some large slab crappie if your close to that area. Not that far from Oregon.
