あらすじ・解説
For December 19, 2024, if you're planning to head out for some Pacific halibut fishing off the Oregon coast, here's what you need to know:
### Tidal Report
Today, the tides along Oregon's North Coast, specifically around Tillamook Bay, are quite active. The high tide is expected at around 7:47 PM with a height of 5.5 feet, and the low tide will be at 12:21 PM with a height of 0.6 feet. These tides can significantly impact fishing conditions, so plan your trip accordingly[2].
### Weather and Sunrise/Sunset
The weather is expected to be cool and possibly overcast, typical for this time of year. Sunrise is at 7:48 AM, and sunset will be at 4:30 PM. Make sure to dress warmly and be prepared for changing conditions.
### Fish Activity
Pacific halibut fishing has been decent in the recent days, although the fishery is managed closely to ensure conservation. The daily bag limit is one halibut of any size per person. The Oregon Central Coast subarea, which includes areas like Cape Falcon to Humbug Mountain, has seen some activity. However, the fishery will close when there is not sufficient subarea allocation for another full day of fishing[1].
### Types and Amounts of Fish Caught
Yesterday, anglers reported catching a few halibut, mostly in the Central Coast nearshore and all-depth areas. The catches were not abundant, but those who ventured out early had some success.
### Best Lures and Bait
For halibut, the best lures often include large jigs, especially those with a squid or octopus trailer. Bait such as herring, anchovies, or even lures mimicking these baits can be very effective. The key is to get your gear to the bottom where halibut tend to congregate.
### Hot Spots
- **Central Coast nearshore**: This area, inside the 40-fathom line from Cape Falcon to Humbug Mountain, has been a hotspot for halibut fishing. Be cautious of the Recreational Yelloweye Rockfish Conservation Areas.
- **Central Coast all-depth**: The same area but extending beyond the 40-fathom line has also seen some action. However, this area will close when the combined spring and summer all-depth fishery allocations are depleted[1].
Remember to check the latest fishery closures and allocations before heading out, as these can change quickly. Enjoy your fishing trip and stay safe.
