Largemouth Bass
Just a short drive north of Portland, Columbia City offers some decent largemouth bass fishing opportunities in the sloughs and backwaters connected to the Columbia River. The slow-moving water and abundant vegetation create ideal habitat for largemouth. Focus your efforts on areas with lily pads, submerged timber, and weed beds. Summer is the peak season, as the water warms up and the bass become more active. Topwater lures, such as frogs and buzzbaits, can be incredibly effective in the thick vegetation. Flipping and pitching jigs or Texas-rigged plastics around structure is also a productive tactic. Be aware of the tides, as they can significantly impact water levels and bass activity. A good place to start is the Cunningham Lake area; it's known for holding some decent-sized largemouth. Look for the Columbia River boat ramps in the area to find access points.
