Westport salmon and bottom fish


We had a five man crew at westport  Saturday and Sunday july 19 and july 20
The overall weather and water conditions were very good but we did have some fog on Saturday.
It took us a while to find the fish on Saturday, but once we did we had sold fishing for mid-sized kings in 245 feet of water  with our flasher and hoochies at 200 feet on the riggers
Once we had our kings we headed way up north for our silvers. The silver action was very good on Saturday we were able to catch our silvers very quickly and had time left over to catch limits of large black rockfish and a nice batch of mid-grade lings.

On Sunday we went back out to 245 feet and were able to pick up quick limits of mid-sized kings again. After that we head back up north for our silvers but what had been very good fishing the day before was super slow. We were marking fish everywhere but we could not  get them to bite . After working the area for a while with only a few silvers to show for it we made a quick run and picked up 50 bass and then made a run down to the casino to pick up our final two silvers.
My overall feel for the weekend  was the sea bass fishing was very good.  The salmon fishing was a bit on the slow side but they were there if you were willing to search around a bit.
