Westports tuna


We had a five man crew at Westport Saturday and Sunday Aug 9 & 10 the overall fishing was good but not great.
The  weather conditions were poor this weekend fogy in the mornings, windy and sloppy in the afternoons and rough on the bar at times.
We had to go a bit farther out this weekend to find the temp and water color we were looking for. The temp and color seems to be moving to the south west.
Not many birds out there right now and we did not see any jumpers this weekend but there were plenty of tuna around.
The tuna were biting well on both the troll and live bait, but the wind was effecting our bait stops a lot! We had our best troll results with x raps, cedar plugs, albacore allstar, and swim baits in purple and black.I exspect the tuna fishing to remain good for the next several weeks.

We did not salmon fish this weekend, the salmon reports were mixed some found limits of good kings and silvers on the beach and others scratched for a fish or two both on the beach and off shore.
