Westport halibut & lings

We had a 3 man crew at Westport on Sunday the fishing was very good it did not take us long to catch our limits of halibut and lingcod. The day started off with good weather but the wind came up in the afternoon which made for a long bumpy ride back in.

 

 

 

 

 

Neah bay halibut & lingcod

We had a four man crew up at neah bay last week, Chuck G, Andy M, Peate K, and myself.

The overall bottom fishing was good. We had a mix of both slow and hot fishing but over all I was very happy with our results.
The salmon fishing was very slow so we did not put much effert in to it, but there were a few nice hatchery kings caught by A few that put their time in.



 



 

 



 

 

 

 

 

 

Westport halibut and lings

We had a four man crew at Westport on Sunday.

i was joined by Mike L, Eric C, and Rocky

The weather was great and so was the fishing.

It was sunny, warm and flat calm all day, the weather could not have got any better!
We were able to catch easy limits of midgrade halibut and limits of very nice lings
We did  well on both bait and jigs on Sunday,  but the jigs seemed to be working  a little better.

 

 

 

 

Neah Bay Lings

We had a four man crew at Neah bay this weekend. I was joined by wade B,  John L, and Josh S

We had a wide range of fishing conditions this weekend we saw everything from flat calm, no wind, no current, no drift and hoping for any type of movement, to very windy, currents ripping and the water so churned up we couldn’t keep the boat straight.

The overall fishing was good  we caught lots of lingcod this weekend and a few really  nice ones but I would have liked to see a little bigger average size. The rock fish were tough to find this weekend but when we found them the fishing was hot for nice sized bass.

The overall fishing was also good. We were able to catch limits of nice  lings and rock fish but we had to work a bit harder than I expected to get them.

Humptulips 2-9-2013

I fished the Humptulips on Saturday feb 9. The river was at 1,600 cfs  with a green tint and  5 feet of vis The fishing conditions seemed perfect, mild temps , good water level,  good vis, and hardly any fishing pressure.The fishing should have been great but it wasn’t. I scratched up one steelhead and a few cutthroat  but the overall fishing was very slow. It feels like we are between runs right now and the the fishing should improve in the next few weeks
