Generations Of Fishermen
My father, at the age of six, caught his first salmon and his father, my grandfather, had to sell the fish to buy a pair of shoes. I heard that story a lot. My grandfather hammered spinners and poured lead fishing weights to sell to fishermen on the Willamette and Columbia rivers. His spinners are still fished today after over 70 years of catching game fish. That’s a lot of fish!

Meets Oregon Guidelines – Seal of Approval
D & G Bait has a reputation for being a leader in this industry by developing environmentally friendly fishing bait products. We have initiated strict standards for bait that will not jeopardize the well being of juvenile fish in our waterways. “Meets Oregon Guidelines” is now required by the Oregon Department of Fish & Wildlife (ODFW) for cured Salmon Egg products sold in Oregon.
But, just what does that mean ?
And why do we need to comply ?
Cured Salmon Eggs have been a popular Salmon and Steelhead bait for decades. During a recent study by ODFW they discovered that a common ingredient in many cures can be toxic to juvenile Salmon and Steelhead. D&G Bait, Inc. is proud to certify that our Guides Choice brand products are environmentally friendly and meet or exceed the Oregon guidelines. “Meets Oregon Guidelines” seal of approval labeling on our refrigerators and displays inform anglers that our fishing bait products surpass these new standards.
We appreciate this opportunity to collaborate with ODFW and to be partners in the protection of our fishery resources along with educating the customers we serve.
