JUNE 29, 2017 FISHING REPORT

Summer has arrived on the Oregon Coast and we are at our peak season for rockfish and lingcod. The rockcod have moved in shallow as giant schools of anchovies move close to the beach. We are seeing daily limits of nice rockfish on light tackle. Aside from plenty of black snapper, we also are seeing some very nice vermillion rockfish (such as the trophy fish picture below) and canary rockfish. The limit on rockfish remains 7 fish a day in Oregon, with up to 6 black snapper. We also can keep canary rockfish, vermillions, China rockcod, copper rockfish and blue rockfish, so limits are very common right now. The lingcod are running 8 to 10 pounds, with a few fish over 20 pounds. Our biggest recently is a 26-pounder. We have plenty of seats open in July and August. Call (541) 813-1082 to book a trip.
