The start to the season for has been a little slow due to the north westerly winds as usual this time of year here in Northern California and Southern Oregon. We have slopes out of the Eureka harbor a few times with decent to excellent fishing. The menu for the fisherman on the Norwegian Jewel has been Rockfish,Lingcod, Pacific Halibut and Dungeness Crab.
Finally we have been able to fish the Chetco river the past 10 days. We have had decent to average results fishing out of Brookings Oregon. The river has been up and down with flows due to many weather systems passing through the area. Fishing from the South Fork put in down to Social Security river bar take out has been the ideal float for us. Our best day was hooking 8 and landing 2. We will be fishing where ever the fishing is best in Southern Oregon and Northern California this season . We have availability for February and March. Feel free to contact us for more details.

The past ten days we have had many important rain events that help draw big pushes of fish into the Smith and Chetco rivers! Fishing with clients and my good friend Mario, we landed this nice wild buck on the Smith river. Due to recent precipitation levels, we have been fishing high water conditions. The thing that makes the Smith so special is it can flood with crazy amounts of water, rise 5′ and drop out into suitable fishing conditions the next day. Without this river in our back yard, all the fishing guides in northern California and southern Oregon would have half the days in a season.
So far the fish have just started to pour into the rivers roughly ten days ago. Big numbers are coming from the fisherman on the bank and the fishermen in boats as well. Today we got blown off the water and the river came up and blew out on us by eleven am. That being said, we will be back on the water tomorrow eager to to see what comes our way. We have availability! Don’t be shy to text, call or email us for more info or to book your next fishing adventure.
