Since the Chinook Salmon season has been pretty poor so far, we've been spending all of our time on bottom fishing and the remaining Halibut season. We don't expect for there to be any more Halibut dates until summer season in August, but it's possible we haven't met the quota yet and ODFW will annouce another backup date or two. In the meantime we're running bottom fishing trips every day this week and eagerly anticipating the Coho opener on Saturday! Today's picture is a good sized black rockfish caught on the Crackerjack by our good friend Pat a few days ago.

There are a few spots left on Friday for bottom fishing on either boat and then we'll start after Salmon on the 26th. We have 4 spots left for a half day Salmon trip on Saturday and 8 spots left on Sunday for the Crackerjack. The Sea Quell has only one spot left for bottom fishing on Sunday.

Have a great day everyone! 

June 17th- 19th has been opened by fish and wildlife to halibut fishing.  We're booking trips now.  We have room on all three days but call soon if you want to go out Saturday, things are filling up.

 

Its the perfect present for dad!

Last weekend's Halibut was pretty tough with a fast drift and some choppy seas, but our boats faired pretty well overall. This week we had a weather cancellation on Thursday because of one of our famous Oregon Coast storms, but we made it out Friday and Saturday. The picture is from the Crackerjack's catch on Saturday. Capt. Jack brought in limits plus crew fish on what was the last Halibut day until June 3rd. Today the Crackerjack went out on a bottom trip and brought back limits for everyone who didn't end up hanging over a rail… And I say that in a loving way since I would be doing the same thing…

This weekend we're looking forward to bottom fishing and the opening of the first Chinook Salmon season in years on the 29th! Hope you're all coming to visit us (or at least getting out of town) for Memorial Day Weekend! Don't forget to check out more details on the Best Fishing Places Deep Sea Fishing Tournament on July 16th and 17th, only 5 spots left!

It looks like this years salmon season has been agreed upon.

Chinook salmon will be open Memorial Day through Labor Day Weekend.

Coho Salmon season will open up June 26th, and last through Labor Day or 26,000 fish, which ever comes first.

 

The season has been adopted by ODFW.  Time to polish off the salmon gear.

 

We are taking reservations now for either coho or Chinook trips.  Just a reminder a half day trip is $85 and a full day trip is $115.
