This video shows commercial fishing boats re-entering over the bar at the mouth of the
Columbia River between Western Washington and Oregon. It is well known as one of the
world’s most dangerous and violent river re-entry points.

Been over the bar numerous time…..always go at slack tide, and this is exactly why. Note it was a sunny clear day.
