4/10 Pacific City, Oregon - Kayak Fishing Adventures on Big Water’s Edge

yakinitup · 04-16-2009, 12:09 PM

After moving from San Diego a couple of years ago and moving up to Oregon, I'm finally getting settled into some good fishing spots up here. Most recently, me and another kayak fisher(there are a few up here I realized!) hit up the haystack rock at Pacific City. It's pretty easy to bag a limit on black rockfish sitting right next to the haystack and there is great ling cod fishing in the area as well. The tough part is finding a day that the swells are less than 6 feet and there is no wind.

Nice looking environment up there...

if it didnt rain so much, I'd like to live somewhere like that!

Keep the pics, and reports coming!

You're thinking about Rooster Rock.
