Nice ocean rest of week by forecast and the Lings are REALLY biting
Fishing Report: 11/27/2023
As our last posting indicated we have most of this week ahead of us thru Thursday really great weather with Friday thru Sunday looking right now very nautical. We had a great trip today and the Lingcod really were on the bite with a nice array of rockfish to go with it. Just a heads up sport ocean crabbing is scheduled to re-open December 1st this Friday.

Seasonal info will be posted as it becomes available:
Proposed 2023 Salmon season
The 2023 ocean salmon season for the upcoming summer season with marked selective Coho salmon fishing beginning June 17th and running thru the last day of August. The quota proposal accepted is 110,000 fish. There will be no Chinook salmon retention due to lower than expected numbers in the California zones.
There will also be a September non-marked selective coho fishery like in past years somewhere between 15,000 and 25,000 fish with a possibility of a rollover from the summer quota if anything remains. There could be a possibility of a Chinook season of one fish in that time also. Final decisions will be made by the PFMC at their annual meeting May 7th.
2023 PROPOSED HALIBUT SEASON
SPRING: May 1 - June 30th, 7 days a week. Limit one fish per person. For 2023, the regulation has changed and we will now be able to keep Rockfish,Black Cod and Lingcod on our offshore Halibut Trips!
SUMMER: Beginning August 3rd, 7 days a week through September or until the quota is met. Currently a 2 fish limit per person!

Nice November Cabezon
Fishing Report: 11/24/2023
Dockside found one of those in-between days where you had not so nice weather the day before and the day after but this was a nice day out on the water and the passengers reeled in the profits. Dockside had three boats out there this morning (Surfrider-Tacklebuster-Sunrise) and all three had terrific trips. The Surfrider was 2-rockfish sort of a boat limit along with 47 Lingcod for 26 folks onboard. The Tacklebuster and the Sunrise were ever so close to the exact same thing with 30+ Lingcod per boat.. It was a great day. Call our office as we are always looking for those winter time dates that look great for fishing and our office is totally on top of things. (LIKE TODAY !)
