Default Where to fish Saturday

Here's the situation: This Saturday is the first day this year I can spend the whole day on the river(and now appears to be the last day for chinook). Anyway, where what would be the best place on the Columbia to fish salmon Saturday between Chinook Landing and St. Helens? (I haven't seen any "fish caught" reports the last few days.) Also, I was planning on using wobblers but is there anything that might work better? I have yet to catch a salmon since I started fishing them 4 years ago. I'm trying to increase my odds on the last day of the seasons. Thanks in advance for your suggestions.

Feel free to join the ten million boats that will be out on Saturday.

Anchor just outside the shipping channel and drop something shiny with green or blue down 5x5 and wait. Good luck.

Don't hesitate to try shallower too. We had a good day last week in 32'. Put in at Bayport (top secret spot) and run up or down the big "C". Good luck.

I would try anywhere between St. helens and Longview. Just make sure your out of the shipping channel. We fished evening tide tonight and limited the boat at 7:15. 35# 28# 25# and 17# the bite was awesome. 45' of water and color of wobbler didn't much matter.
