 Good morning anglers this is Artificial Lure with your Friday May 23 fishing report for the Oregon coast and Pacific waters. Sunrise was at 5:34 AM and sunset will be at 8:39 PM so there is plenty of daylight to get in on the bite. Tides are moderate with a low around 8 AM and the next high coming in just before 2 PM making the mid-morning and early afternoon some of your best fishing windows today. Weather is classic late spring coastal fare with overcast skies keeping it cool early then breaking up for sun by midday and light winds out of the northwest—perfect for working those reefs and jetties.

Fish activity has been hot in several categories. Lingcod are still on fire out of Brookings especially, with charter boats bringing in full limits. Rockfish are also coming up in good numbers including blacks, blues, and the occasional canary. Salmon fishing is picking up out of the southern ports as good numbers of coho are showing up in the catches alongside steady king salmon action. And if you are after halibut, the recent opener has brought solid catches along the central coast with effort peaking on those calm weather days[4][5].

For best results on bottomfish, you can’t beat a white or motor oil swimbait for lingcod around rocky pinnacles and reefs, especially when worked early in the tide. Shrimp flies tipped with strips of squid or herring are pulling in mixed bags of rockfish. Salmon trollers are having success with hoochies and cut-plug herring behind flashers, with green or chartreuse being the hot colors in the morning switching to more muted tones as the sun gets higher. For halibut, large herring or octopus on spreader bars dropped deep are the ticket, especially on the slower parts of the tide[1][4][5].

Hot spots for the day include the reefs just out from Port Orford and the productive waters off Brookings for both big lingcod and salmon. The mouth of the Siuslaw River is holding a good mix of feeder kings and coho close to shore, while Depoe Bay’s nearshore rocky structure is loaded with hungry rockfish.

Catch sizes are looking strong—lots of lingcod in the 10 to 20 pound range, rockfish limits coming easy, and salmon pushing 12 to 18 pounds with a few much bigger kings showing up in the mix. Halibut running from chicken-size up to 40 pounds have been landed for those willing to chase them offshore.

That’s your Oregon Pacific fishing report for today. Lines tight and keep those hooks sharp—there’s plenty of action out there.
