Andy,
If there is a smaller tide exchange, I would get out as close to the jaws as you dare on low slack and begin mooching. As the tides begins to push slowly troll with it up to Coast guard station and then turn around and go out as far as you can and do it over until high slack....get the heck out of there on the outgoing tide. your boat just shouldn't be out there when tide tide is going out...but I'm sure you know that

Never mooched before but its like you read my mind. Heading out and dropping pots before low slack and the getting as close to big pond as I dare and fishing until after high slack and pulling up pots. Hoping the sea is calm enough to do a few brodies around the channel marker just outside the jaws just to say I did it.

I have a buddy who grew up fishing out of the Columbia in a wooden 12lber footer with a 6 horse. Always trust to get me to go out over the bar.

Well, good luck! Watch the tides and winds carefully! My son had our 16 ft. Jon boat almost to the tips of the Coos jetties the other day! The crabbing should be good! Coos bay has been easy pickens' lately!
Also....hearing confirmed reports from people I know that are hooking salmon and steelhead on the main Umpqua this week while pulling plugs! The river is way too warm with this hot spell, but....the fish are there! :clap: The next good cool spell and it's on!!! :dance:

Yeah we dropped pots right at low slack slightly incoming. fished againdst the tide trolling the south jetty and right away with gear in for less than 5 minutes i had one on. after we reeeled in the other 2 rods and got he net ready it came unbuttoned. never seen it but felt to be in the 10 - 20 lb range. trollend along the south jetty a bit more going both ways and decided to cross the bar. went out about 100 yards at max and turned around. in a 12"er with 3 guys those swells seemed preety rough. ended up by cusham and then back to the jeties and fished some more then pulled pots and bounce. someone pulled a pot becfause it was moved and had 1 crab when the others were loaded. ended up with with 5 keepers. 3 good sized. 2.5X my money when i left the casino and drove home with all the sunday drivers.
