The Sandy River Steelheaders were formed in 1964 and are located along the banks of the Sandy River in Troutdale, Oregon. Since its inception the group has helped to play a key role in the development and conservation of sport fishing and is dedicated to improving the freshwater fisheries in the Northwest.   The group also participates in the following activities:

·        Angler Education Programs

·        ODFW Hatchery Programs

·        ANWS Hall of Fame Banquet

·        Group Fishing and Picnics

·        Various Fundraisers

We are committed to safeguarding, promoting, and enhancing the social, environmental, and conservational values of sport fishing. Our mission is to take part in "Educating the general public on improving, preserving and promoting sport fishing in the Columbia River and it's tributary streams and rivers, which include the Sandy."

The Sandy River Chapter meets at Glenn Otto Park the first Thursday of each month.   During each meeting we invite a speaker - local river guides, hatchery personnel, ODFW staff, and Fish Industry representatives provide great information on how, when, and what when fishing local PNW rivers - especially the Sandy River.

Meeting typically last until 9pm - we always have a meeting raffle were those in attendance can win great prizes - rods, reels, lures, etc .
