First Pass Outfitters
Astoria, Oregon
First Pass Outfitters is an Astoria, Oregon charter business reachable on (503) 741-0075 and run by Captain Curtis Bunney, who the site says has fished these waters since he could walk. The operation runs a boat referred to as the Blood Sport, though its make and length are not published. Beyond salmon the business sells sturgeon and steelhead trips and Dungeness crab outings, with peak windows given as March into April for spring salmon and late June through September for the main run, August and September being the strongest of those. The site was advertising bookings for the 2026 season at the time of listing. A directions-to-the-dock page is maintained for arriving clients, though the dock itself is not named in the contact material, so anglers should confirm the meeting point when they book.
