Lingcod
If you're after Lingcod on the Oregon Coast, Port Orford is a fantastic place to start. The rocky reefs and kelp forests just offshore are prime habitat for these ambush predators. Lingcod fishing is best during the spring and early summer months, before the water warms up too much. Focus your efforts around reefs like those near Redfish Rocks Marine Reserve, but be aware of the regulations within the reserve. Jigs and large swimbaits are effective, as are live or dead baitfish. Pay attention to your depth finder and target areas with structure. A local tip: use a heavy enough weight to keep your lure near the bottom, even in strong currents. Be prepared for a strong fight – Lingcod are known for their powerful runs and tendency to dive back into the rocks.
