あらすじ・解説
For December 13, 2024, if you're planning to hit the Pacific Ocean off the coast of Oregon, here's what you need to know:
### Tidal Report
Today's tides are part of the King Tide period, which means you'll see extreme high and low tides. According to the tide tables, for areas like Seaside or Astoria, the high tide is around 9:05 AM PST at 5.80 ft, and the low tide is at 5:52 PM PST at 0.08 ft[5].
### Weather
The weather is expected to be cool and possibly rainy, typical for this time of year in Oregon. Make sure to dress warmly and be prepared for changing conditions.
### Sunrise and Sunset
Sunrise is at 7:48 AM PST, and sunset is at 4:29 PM PST, giving you a good window for fishing.
### Fish Activity
This time of year, the fish activity is mainly focused on winter steelhead and some lingering coho salmon. However, the primary target for ocean fishing in December would be bottomfish like rockfish and possibly some late-season coho.
### Catch Reports
Yesterday's catches were moderate, with anglers reporting some rockfish and a few winter steelhead in the lower Coos Bay estuary and near the jetties. The coho salmon fishery has largely wound down, but you might still catch some stragglers[4].
### Best Lures and Bait
For bottomfish, a jig with a twister tail trailer is a good option. For steelhead, using bait like nightcrawlers or small spinners can be effective. If you're after the remaining coho, try using hoochies or small spoons.
### Hot Spots
- **Coos Bay Estuary**: This area is good for catching rockfish around the jetties, especially near slack tides.
- **Offshore Astoria**: Fishing west of Astoria can still yield some coho and chinook, although the season for keeping chinook has closed. This area is also good for bottomfish.
Remember to check the latest fishing regulations before you head out, as they can change. Enjoy your fishing trip, and stay safe on the water.
