Cabezon
Newport, Oregon, is a fantastic location for targeting cabezon, with its rugged coastline and numerous rocky jetties. Yaquina Bay and the surrounding nearshore waters are prime cabezon habitat. The best time to fish for them is during the warmer months, from late spring through early fall, when they are more active. Focus your efforts around low tide when cabezon are often found in tide pools and rocky crevices. A productive spot is the South Jetty at the mouth of Yaquina Bay. However, be mindful of the strong currents and potentially dangerous conditions. Always wear appropriate footwear and be aware of your surroundings. Oregon's cabezon fishery is generally healthy, but adhering to size and bag limits is crucial for maintaining its sustainability. Try using scented soft plastics or live bait presented close to the bottom for the best results. Also, be sure to check the Oregon Department of Fish and Wildlife (ODFW) regulations before you go.
