Black Rockfish
Newport, Oregon, is a superb destination for Black Rockfish, with numerous charter options and accessible nearshore fishing grounds. The rocky jetties and reefs just outside Yaquina Bay are prime locations. The peak season is typically late spring through early fall, when the ocean is calmer and the weather is more predictable. A crucial piece of advice is to check the ocean conditions before heading out, as the Pacific can be unforgiving. Local anglers often have success with jigs and soft plastics fished near the bottom. Popular access points include the South Beach Marina and the Yaquina Bay State Park. The Black Rockfish in Newport are known for their aggressive strikes, so be prepared for a good fight. Fishing pressure can be high during peak season, so consider exploring less-frequented areas to increase your chances of success.
