Rockfish
Coos Bay provides easy access to some fantastic rockfish opportunities. The nearshore reefs, jetties, and rocky bottoms are home to a variety of rockfish species, including black rockfish, blue rockfish, and canary rockfish. Fishing is productive year-round, but the summer months often offer calmer seas. Focus on areas with structure and current, as rockfish are ambush predators. Jigs, swimbaits, and bait rigs all work well. A local tip: try fishing near the Charleston jetty; it's easily accessible and holds a good population of rockfish. Be sure to check the regulations regarding species identification and retention limits. The rockfish in this area are known for their vibrant colors and delicious flavor. Remember to use a descending device when releasing rockfish to help them survive the pressure change.
