Westport salmon and bottom fish

The overall fishing this week was good but not great
It has been a bit windy this week and it looks like the wind might stick around for a while
There has been good morning and evening salmon bites. The mid-day lull has been a great time to go catch a few bottom fish.
Our best salmon results have been on flasher and hoochies  in 250 to 280 feet of water, our hot rigger depths have been  220 and 160.

Westport kings and bottom fish


The overall water and weather conditions were very good at westport this weekend.

There has been a good morning and night  king bite.
Our best luck is coming in 200 to 250 feet of water 150 feet on the riggers. Hoochies and bucktails are both working well.
The bottom fishing has also been good with plenty of blacks, yellow tail and lings around. Jigs and flies have been working well for the bottom fish.
we also had another bird stop by and hang out this weekend.
