  • Résumé

  • As of November 22, 2024, the fishing scene on the Pacific Ocean off the Oregon coast is challenging due to the prevailing weather conditions. Here’s a breakdown of what you can expect:

    **Weather and Tides:**
    The weather has been quite rough, making it difficult for anglers to get out on the water. According to recent reports, poor weather and ocean conditions have kept many anglers off the water for most of the week[3][4].
    For today, the tide times are crucial for planning your fishing trip. As of November 22, the high tide is expected around 10:30 AM, and the low tide around 4:30 PM. Fishing near slack tide, especially in estuaries and bays, can be more productive as many fish tend to come in with the tide[3].

    **Sunrise and Sunset:**
    Sunrise today is at 7:28 AM, and sunset is at 4:34 PM. These times are important for planning your day on the water.

    **Fish Activity:**
    Despite the challenging weather, there have been some decent catches reported. Anglers out of Depoe Bay, Newport, Charleston, and Brookings have had moderate success. The catch has mostly consisted of black, blue, and deacon rockfish, with some canary, copper, China, brown, and tiger rockfish also being caught. Lingcod fishing has been slow, with about 0.9 fish per angler at Depoe Bay and just above 0.5 fish per angler at Charleston[3].

    **Best Lures and Bait:**
    For bottomfish like rockfish and lingcod, a jig head with a rubber swim bait is a simple but effective setup. For lingcod, ensure you have a measuring device as the minimum legal size is 22 inches. When fishing from shore or in estuaries, keeping an eye on the tide and using bait that matches the local forage can be beneficial[3].

    **Hot Spots:**
    - **Depoe Bay:** Known for its moderate success with black and deacon rockfish, and occasional lingcod.
    - **Brookings:** Anglers here have landed an average of 4 fish per angler, mostly black, blue, and deacon rockfish.
    - **Charleston:** This area has seen moderate success with a mix of rockfish species and some lingcod[3].

    Remember to check the latest regulation updates and ensure you are compliant with all fishing rules and restrictions before heading out. Stay safe and good luck on the water
