サマリー
あらすじ・解説
As of December 1, 2024, the Pacific Ocean off the Oregon coast is presenting a mixed bag for anglers, influenced by the transitioning weather and tidal conditions.
### Tidal Report
Today, the tides are moderate, with a high tide at around 10:30 AM and a low tide at 4:30 PM. Fishing near slack tides, especially during the high tide, has historically been more productive for species like salmon and bottomfish.
### Weather
The weather forecast indicates a partly cloudy day with winds at about 10-15 mph and wave heights around 8-10 feet. While these conditions are manageable, they might make the ocean a bit choppy, especially for smaller boats.
### Sunrise and Sunset
Sunrise today is at 7:28 AM, and sunset is at 4:29 PM, providing a decent window for daytime fishing.
### Fish Activity
Yesterday's fishing reports from the Oregon coast suggest that bottomfish like lingcod and rockfish were active. According to Dockside Charters, anglers had successful days catching limits of lingcod and near-limits of rockfish[4].
### Types and Amounts of Fish
Lingcod and rockfish were the stars of the show, with many anglers reporting full limits. Lingcod were particularly hungry, with catches including several large fish. The general marine fish bag limit allows for 5 fish, with specific limits for lingcod (2 fish, minimum 22 inches) and cabezon (1 fish, minimum 16 inches)[4].
### Best Lures and Bait
For bottomfish, a jig head with a rubber swim bait is highly effective, especially for lingcod. Rockfish can be caught using similar setups or with bait like squid or shrimp. For those targeting salmon, although the ocean recreational salmon season is closed, the estuaries and bays might still yield some coho, especially near slack tides with lures like spinners or bait like herring[3][4].
### Hot Spots
- **Coos Bay Estuary**: Known for its rockfish and lingcod, fishing around the jetties near slack tides can be very productive.
- **Offshore near Cape Falcon to Humbug Mountain**: This area has been good for bottomfish and, during open seasons, coho salmon.
Keep in mind that the ocean conditions can change quickly, so it's always a good idea to check the latest forecasts and regulation updates before heading out. Enjoy your fishing trip
