Lingcod
The rugged coastline off Brookings, Oregon, provides ideal habitat for Lingcod. These ambush predators thrive amongst the rocky reefs and kelp forests just offshore. Bottom fishing is the name of the game here, and the best time to target them is generally spring and summer when the ocean is calmer, and the fish are actively feeding. Focus your efforts around Mack Arch and the numerous submerged rock piles just a few miles offshore. Jigs and swimbaits that mimic local forage fish are highly effective. Be sure to use stout tackle, as Lingcod are powerful fighters and inhabit rough terrain. A local's secret: try tipping your jig with a piece of squid or octopus for added scent attraction. Brookings offers several charter options, which can be a great way to learn the local hotspots and techniques. Remember to check the Oregon Department of Fish and Wildlife regulations for size and bag limits, as they can change seasonally.
