think of your favorite spot to fish, like your favorite hole for steelhead or favorite trolling run for fall chinook (right at high slack), and now imagine being there on a beautiful day....and being all alone.
I dropped my 2 crab pots along the way and got to Simpson Reef about an hour after...
Looks like Fri-Sat-Sun are perfect AM high tides and low swells. Sunday looks like a glass day. Depoe Bay "Fishing Rock" here I come. Tony
Hey guys I was wondering if anyone knows any good places to go flounder fishing? one day many many years ago, I found a large school of pretty large starry flounder off the south jetty of Bastendorf beach but have never caught another one. any advice would be greatly appreciated. T.I.A.
Went Crabbing Sunday at Winchester Bay it was off the hook. We got three limits in 3 hours and through another limit back great day on the water. Crab were all big, hard and full.
Suppose I am fishing inside 30 fathoms, will I catch more kinds of rock fish if I put my hooks at 3 different positions above the sinker up to 30-40 feet above the bottom. Are different retainable fish suspended at different depths like that or would I just have one hook catching whatever was...
What is the total # of snare loops one can have on a crab snare here in Oregon? I scoured the regulation book but could not find it.
I have had this theory for sometime. Waited for the right conditions to test it. It was a BOMB!!!!! Let me explain first I waited for the right conditions to fall in line. Being that high tide and the sun being 12 to 7 inches above the horizon (west cost around Lincoln City) My thinking was the...
Wife and I headed out and hit the water at slack high.3 traps in and half an hour later made the first pull.3 traps 12 jumbos and lots of small one and softies as well. Re set and had 2 limits by 9.I told the wife if we have to use the gauge ,they go back! we had at least 6 over 7...

Looks like the only available fishing in the ocean will be for crab, flat fish and perch. Monday marks the end to a good rock fish season.
With the salmon showing up late and the tuna staying off shore, lots of folks turned to bottom...

This is going to be a strange year. With razor clams shut down and a very poor out look for coho my wife and I decided to come back down to one of our old favorite places, Newport. The coho picture is the same here as it is elsewhere, but the bottom fishing is excellent, and the chances of a...
Left Charleston at 4:30 and headed out to some numbers from a friends trip on Wednesday.Lines in at 6:45 and first fish at 8. It was a very slow pic after that and had 3 troll fish by noon.We ended up chasing jumpers and got the biggest one throwing iron at em.The fish were so boat shy that as...
I'm considering doing a charter for albacore. I would love to be with a smaller group but will go with a 10 person boat. So I have a few questions....
I enjoy cutting my own fish, but due to the long day and travel do you recommend having the charter fillet them up? Tuna loin sounds fantastic...
Made the trek back to Gold Beach to take advantage of the F A C conditions.Set 3 crab traps south in about 110 feet and headed out to the area that O F F member 4labs recommended.THANK YOU 4labs ! the area was defiantly a ling habitat. We kept 7 and threw back at least 10 keepers.The best luck...
Got the nod from some friends that live in Gold Beach that the bar would be doable,so I headed down.With the huge minus tide we waited until noon to launch,to be on the safe side.Headed out to the reef just west of the mouth and the fishing was fantastic.No wind,a little jackass with the mixed...
