Neah Bay Halibut and bottom fish

Mike  L, Eric C, Mike M  and I fished Neah bay last week. The overall  bottom fishing was very good we were able to catch some very nice halibut. The salmon fishing still seemed very slow but there were some very nice hatchery kings taken by a few that put the time and effort in . The overall weather was  good most of the week. The wind did kick up a bit at times but the swells remained small.

We had our best results using a combination of jigs and bait for the halibut while jigs and grubs were working best for the lingcod and rock fish.
It would be nice to get a few more days of deep water fishing in at Neah bay  before the main salmon season opens but we will have to wait and see if they reopen it.
