Halibut
Targeting halibut off Arch Cape, Oregon, requires understanding the dynamic nearshore environment. This area benefits from nutrient-rich currents and seasonal baitfish migrations that draw in these flatfish. The peak season typically runs from late spring through early fall, when the weather is more predictable, and the halibut are actively feeding. Focus your efforts around underwater structures and rocky bottoms, as these areas tend to hold bait. A crucial local tip: pay close attention to tidal changes and water temperature. Halibut often move with the tide, and slight temperature variations can concentrate them in specific depths. Access is primarily through boat launches in nearby Garibaldi or Cannon Beach. Remember to use sturdy tackle and presentation, as some true barn doors cruise these waters.
