The Tillamook Fishing Report starts with Tillamook Bay and ocean.  Both the Bay and the ocean are off to a great start. We are seeing fantastic salmon action all ready with fishing just getting better and better.

We saw a great king salmon run at buoy 10 on the Columbia River mouth and we expect a great King Salmon run down here in Tillamook and Nehalem bays and ocean on days we can get out.  In addition we are crabbing also on the nice ocean days.  All the following pictures are from the last few days of fishing in Tillamook Bay and in the ocean.

 

We do have some seats still available for those wishing to get out and catch some fish this season but they are going to fill very quickly so don’t hesitate to call if you are interested.   The following dates are open as of the writing of this report.

We will be fishing tidewater and the rivers starting on the 18th of Oct.  This is a hands on fishery fishing bobber and eggs and back bouncing eggs.  We will be fishing out of my 21 foot sled and my 20 foot drift boat.  All depending on conditions we move around where ever fishing is best.  These are the same hard fighting fish from the bay just in some much smaller areas.  We can fish up to 3 people a day in the drift boat and 4 people a day in the small sled.
