Trip Updates

Well the North wind has made things kind of difficult for the last couple weeks. 

 

The tuna have moved offshore for now but should come back close as soon as the North wind stops blowing so hard.  It may be a week or so but we'll keep our eyes on the warm water and let you know.

The salmon fishing has been slow but some boats have started finding fish.  A mix of Coho and Chinook have been showing up Northwest of Newport.  We'll know more after monday.

 

Bottom fishing has slowed down a little bit also because of the cool water being stirred up by the Northwest wind.  The Lingcod are still biting and we caught several nice ones today.

Cabezon closes tonight at midnight and also water beyond twenty fathoms closes to bottom fishing.  That doesn't impact us to much, we still have tons of places to fish out of Newport.

Cross your fingers for the wind to slow down!
