Largemouth Bass
Fairview, Oregon, while close to the bustling Portland metro area, offers surprisingly good largemouth bass fishing if you know where to look. The Columbia River sloughs and backwaters near Fairview provide ideal habitat for largemouth. These areas are characterized by slow-moving water, abundant vegetation, and plenty of cover. The best time to fish for bass here is from late spring through early fall. During the warmer months, focus on fishing early in the morning or late in the evening, when bass are more active. Flipping jigs and creature baits around docks, submerged logs, and lily pads is a productive technique. A key to success is understanding the tidal influence of the Columbia River, as bass activity can fluctuate with the tides. A local tip: Explore the smaller, less-pressured sloughs that are accessible by kayak or canoe. The bass in these areas tend to be less wary. The Columbia River tributaries can hold some real surprises.
