Rogue River Spring Salmon

Ultimate Rogue River Spring Chinook Fishing: The “Springer Special” is Back!

Are you ready to tangle with the most coveted prize in the Pacific Northwest? Rogue River Spring Chinook (aka “Springers”) are officially on their way to Gold Beach, and Salmon King Lodge Guide Service is ready to put you on the fish.

Rogue Springers are legendary for a reason. Hooked less than 20 miles from the ocean, these broad-shouldered salmon are full of fight and offer a deep, rich flavor—often called the Wagyu beef of salmon—thanks to their high intramuscular fat content.

The Best Value on the Rogue: Our 2026 Springer Special

We’re fighting inflation by keeping our popular Springer Special at last year’s pricing. For just $319 per angler, you get a complete world-class fishing experience.

The $319 Springer Special Includes:

  • Full Day of Guided Fishing: Chase Springers from the comfort of our covered and heated 25′ Willie Jet Boat.
  • Private Charter Experience: Unlike “cattle car” guides, your group gets the boat to yourselves for undivided attention.
  • Bayside Lodging: Relax at the newly renovated Eagle Bay Lodging cabins with stunning views of the Rogue Bay.
  • World-Famous Breakfast: We’ll be serving our signature homemade sausage breakfast burritos on board!

Note: This special requires a 2-person minimum ($638 total) and is valid January through May.

With one of only 39 USFS permits for the lower Rogue, I can take you into the Rogue National Forest, away from the crowds and into the heart of the scenic canyon. Whether we are targeting acrobatic Steelhead or hard-hitting Chinook, you’ll be fishing in comfort with top-tier gear and a guide who knows these waters intimately.

Plan Your Trip

Spring salmon fishing is highly dependent on water flows. While we anticipate a great season, we always keep safety and “fishability” first.
