Seasonal Activity Chart
Rockfish
Auke Bay presents fantastic opportunities for rockfish anglers, with a diverse range of species inhabiting the area's varied underwater structures. The key to success lies in understanding their seasonal movements and preferred habitats. Rockfish fishing tends to peak during the warmer months, from late spring through summer, when they move into shallower waters to feed. Focus your efforts around rocky outcroppings, submerged ledges, and kelp beds. A proven local tactic is to use brightly colored jigs or soft plastics, fished vertically near the bottom. Remember to use a descending device if you plan to release rockfish, as barotrauma can be a significant issue. Access to prime rockfish habitat is readily available from the Auke Bay boat launch. Always check current fishing regulations and be aware of depth restrictions for certain species. Adjust your depth with temperature and current changes.
