Barview jetty report

Had decent success at Barview jetty, we kept 13 fish and threw back 5 or 6 other, no lincod but perch, greenling, and a black rockfish.

Sandshrimp and nightcrawlers, tried some jigs for lings but no takers.

That is something I've always wanted to master, nice job.

Can I ask, did the rockfish prefer sandshrimp or did they hit night crawlers as well?

Awesome! Always wanted to jetty fish, never really have...How long were you fishing? What sort of weights/setup were you using?

The rockfish seem to prefer the sandshrimp but the perch seem to like the worms. When the fish would steal most of the shrimp off of the hook I would tip it with a piece of nightcrawler.

We fished for about five hours starting on a incoming tide and through high slack. We were using a fish finder rig, which consist of a 2oz weight on the bottom then about a foot up a hook and a second hook a foot up from that. Make sure to wrap you sandshrimp on with elastic thread, the fish are good at stealing your bait.

Surf leader? Weight on the bottom and 2 loops above to connect your hooks. Btw fishing in the jetty has been great!

Great job guys!

Did you catch the fish during daylight hours? Looks like it from the pic, but the pic could have been from the following morning. Also, was the 2oz enough to hold or was it more like drift fishing.

Congrats again on a nice outing.

Started fishing around 10am and quit around 3:30pm high tide was at 2:30, I thought it would of been best fishing at high slack but the best fishing was the first couple hours. 2oz was enough to hold if you didn't cast far, most fish were caught 5'-25' out.
