The ocean fishing season has started out very productively
with a nice grade of rock fish and ling cod caught by happy customers. The
spring halibut fishery has provided very nice halibut catches for our customers
as well! Yes!
There is a summer quota for halibut, and Betty Kay Charters
offer two dates: Friday August 4th and Friday August 18th. You get your monies
worth when you catch a halibut as it is so expensive in the market!
As we move into summer months, the warm currents approach
our off-shore waters, and with the warm water comes the bait fish and the
albacore tuna. We have scheduled dates for tuna trips so you can check our
online calendar through FareHarbor or call our office at 541 888-9021! Our 12
hour trips are $200 and we take up to 12 fishers, trolling at 6 knots looking
and catching tuna from 20 to 45 miles off shore. The ocean is totally different
when you go off shore and are trolling in the tropical blue waters, you see
different birds, whales, sharks and have the thrill of the catch when you hook
onto a diving tuna!
Good things to share: Our 50' charter vessels are USCG
inspected every year and carry E-PERBS, (locator beacons) rescue flotation,
ADD's, (defibrillators), and satellite radios in case an emergency situation
arises. Safety is our priority always along with creating an ocean adventure
experience you will enjoy and want to return again.
Ocean salmon is not a viable fishery this year with low
returns projected. The years of drought and ocean conditions are causing
conservative management ruling. There should be opportunity this fall for
catching in the different river systems. We will be fishing through October!
Hope to see you out fishing and catching with us this summer & fall!
Why wouldn’t you give us a call at 800.752.6303
if you want to do some fun fishing on the Oregon Coast. We’re located at 90389 Albacore Lane in Charleston,
Oregon. Minutes away from your fishing
adventure!
