English Sole
The English Sole is a flatfish highly valued by anglers for its delicate flavor and firm texture.

English Sole Fishing in Westport
Westport, Washington, offers consistent English sole fishing both inside Grays Harbor and in the nearshore waters of the Pacific. While halibut and salmon dominate the local fishing scene, English sole provide a reliable and accessible alternative. The prime time to target them is during the warmer months, from late spring through early fall. These flatfish prefer sandy or muddy bottoms, and you'll find them in relatively shallow water. A simple bottom fishing rig with a small hook baited with sand shrimp, clam necks, or small pieces of sandworm is highly effective. Focus on areas with gentle currents. Inside Grays Harbor, look for channels and flats near the entrance. Outside, try drifting along the bottom in 30-60 feet of water. Westport Marina offers excellent boat launch facilities and charter services. Be aware of changing weather conditions, especially when venturing into the ocean. Always check the marine forecast before heading out.
