Rockfish
The waters around Clallam Bay are teeming with various Rockfish species, offering a rewarding fishing experience for anglers of all skill levels. These bottom-dwelling fish are abundant along the rocky reefs and kelp forests that characterize the area. While Rockfish can be caught year-round, the warmer months generally provide the most consistent action. A crucial tip for fishing Rockfish in Clallam Bay is to target areas with significant depth changes and structure. Vertical jigging with leadhead jigs or using baited hooks near the bottom is a common and effective technique. Be aware of the different Rockfish species and their respective regulations, as some species are protected and must be released. It's also essential to use a descending device when releasing Rockfish caught in deeper water to help them survive the pressure change. Always consult the WDFW regulations for specific rules and restrictions.
