Winchester Bay - Douglas, OR Offshore Report on 22nd Jul, 2026

The morning bite was on the pickier side, but persistence paid off with a solid mixed-bag payload! We headed out early to work the local coastal structure and set the crab pots before making a few drifts for bottomfish. While the fish were making us work a bit harder than usual for every strike, we managed to locate a quality grade of rockfish to round out the coolers alongside a nice haul of fresh Dungeness crab. Highlights & Key Details Target Species: Ocean Rockfish & Dungeness Crab Location: Central Oregon Coast (Winchester Bay / Coos Bay area) Bite Conditions: Tougher, slower bite morning—required cycling through different presentations and fishing key structure to coax the fish into biting. Overall Result: Great morning on the water with fresh seafood limits brought back to the dock! Guide Tip for Tough Bites: When bottomfish slow down, slowing down your drift and dropping down smaller, high-contrast plastics or fresh bait trailers can often trigger reaction strikes from hesitant fish.
