Meeting family out there for two days.
Going fishing.
But I would like to kite if there is wind.

Any launches in Hermiston?
Safe launches for my wife?

Thanks.

Stop by Irrigon and say hi to my folks for me...

Small mouth fishing near the Umatilla wildlife refuge on the columbia river - between boardman and irrigon, can be epic at times. Look for 5'-10'ft depth and round river rocks along shore line.

Kiting: if it's windy, there's a sandy beach thats large enough near the Morrow and Umatilla county line (turn into dirt road on hwy 730, county line. Drive all the way towards river - you'll see it.). Wind tends to be a little gusty, slightly off shore (a little SW). Works better when wind is directly west/northwest.
There's more beach access about 2-3 miles west of umatilla city.

Good luck fish'n.....
