Halibut
If you're after the challenge of landing a Pacific Halibut, Brookings, Oregon, provides access to some promising fishing grounds. The season is typically open during specific periods in the spring and summer, so check the regulations carefully before planning your trip. Focus your efforts on areas with sandy or muddy bottoms in depths of 200-400 feet, particularly near underwater structures or drop-offs. Halibut are ambush predators, so look for areas where they can lie in wait for unsuspecting prey. Popular techniques include using large jigs tipped with bait or whole fish on a spreader bar. A local recommendation: pay attention to the tides. Halibut often feed more actively during tidal changes. Brookings offers several charter options with experienced captains who know the local halibut hotspots. Be prepared for a long day on the water, as halibut fishing often requires traveling several miles offshore. Remember to have the proper gear, including a large net or harpoon for landing these powerful fish.
