Halibut
If you're targeting halibut out of Rockaway Beach, Oregon, you're in for a treat! This area offers access to productive halibut grounds relatively close to shore. The key is understanding the seasonal movements of their forage. Spring and early summer are prime times as halibut migrate inshore to feed. Focus your efforts on areas with structure, such as underwater reefs or rocky bottoms. Herring and salmon bellies are effective baits. Be prepared to adjust your depth frequently; halibut will move up and down in the water column depending on the temperature and current. The Garibaldi boat basin is a popular launch point, but be sure to check tide charts as bar crossings can be tricky. Also, remember that Oregon halibut regulations are subject to change, so always verify the current rules before heading out.
