Heceta Beach Is straight west from Eugene.
It might not be the best beach for surf perch, but I've caught them there.
It's also easily accessed.
South jetty beach is also an option, particularly if you are 4-wheel drive.
You can get around the beach dunes and drive down close to the water.
I myself have only fished south jetty beach once, and went without any love
Good lookin' out Roger!Be aware that you can only drive on the beach at the South Jetty during part of the year, I believe no vehicles are allowed from May to September. Slightly south of there is the ATV/OHV area, then just before the mouth of the Siltcoos river the beach is closed to all vehicles all year.
Hello arrow 1….the thing about Oregon surf perch fishing is that perch are where you find them…they are all along our coast. Time of year, tackle and bait choice, tides, all affect your chances of success. Call bait/tackle shops in Brookings for latest scoop. By the way, Florence is 3 hours north of you…you do not need to go that far north. Tons of beach access between Brookings and Bandon. Tight lines!Hello,
I will be moving to Eugene in mid-sept and would very much like to make day/weekend trips from eugene to coastal beaches for surf perch fishing. Can anyone suggest a beach worth going to that is say directly west of Eugene? All responses are greatly appreciated. Arrow1
Uh yes…Uh... no.
Better take a look at a map.Uh yes…
Or maybe you just need to go back and read the OP.Uh yes…
Correct. The OP was looking for places due west of Eugene.Better take a look at a map.
I live in Eugene and Florence is about one hour dead west of me.
