It was a good day..I think we just found a big school because there were seals working them also...We got there a couple hours before high tide and fished through until the bite died down about a hour after high..

2 ounces of weight on the bottom then 2 droppers up the line...Fished Berkeley 2 " Gulp Camo Sandworms...Caught a couple doubles also...Always fun.. LOL

They spawn in the bays. Watch the fishing report and when the spawn is on you can catch buckets full in the bay. Ideally you would need a boat though.

Finally got a chance to go surf fishing yesterday.

Went over the sea wall at south jetty access road, south of Florence.

I had several bites, but didn't hook anything. My buddy caught two serf perch.

At least I got to try out my new rod/reel and got some casting practice.

We were using the same bait and set-ups.

Will be going back soon, to give it another try.

Fun times even if I didn't catch anything this time.

Haven't been there so don't know what the beach looks like..You want a beach that drops off fairly fast...I fish just south of there at Sparrow Park...Kinda cool because you can drive the beach...The beach seems a little steeper about a quarter mile before the North Jetty at Winchester and we seem to do good there... Ocean conditions look favorable for Friday and am planning on hitting it... smile

Cool vid.
I will admit I was wondering, "a helmet?"

Makes sense now.

Thanks.

Santiam;

Thanks for the tips!

We were fishing where it was fairly flat. We fished in one spot where water from a small stream flowed into the sea, and it was really flat there.

NO bites at all.

Will look for steeper beaches. This is a FUN learning process!

Looks like you guys had a ball!...Again !

And, caught a BUNCH of fish !

Gotta get down south a little farther, and try it down there.

Looks like you guys caught several doubles!

Gotta check out regs. on driving on the beach. Do I need an off road sticker and a flag on my truck?

Well,that is a good question and have researched it myself without luck...I see as many without flags as with..Had folks tell me they are not needed and had folks tell me they were..

The first couple times I didn't have anything...Then I bought a cheap flag at WalMart (for bicycles,5 bucks) and zip tie that to my CB antennae.. Now I am considering just paying the 10 bucks for a permit for just in case..

Right now there are few people down there but as the weather improves so will the people and, law enforcement..LOL

Time your trip so you have wet sand to drive on,out and back.., You have one small creek to cross,but it is not a problem.. The road to the beach is kinda rough in spots.. wink

Thanks Santiam!

I know you have to have an off-road sticker and flag for driving on the sand dunes.

I have an off-road sticker and flag on my sandrail, and my buddy has the same on his Jeep.

My truck is a Tacoma 4X4 TRD, w/airlock rear end, so I think it will do OK on firm sand.

Best to just buy the sticker, and mount a flag, to make sure.

I have an Oregon off-road license.

Can't WAIT to get back over and give it another try!

A good surf report is something a surf fisherman can't live without..I use this,

Looks like a good window Tues,Wen and Thur...

We will probably go tomorrow because of the timing of high tide..

Looks like a fun time was had!

We're planning a trip over on the first. Supposed to be a good fishing day, according to the tide book.
