And here is what is bending our rods today. As of October 8th, 2024, the fishing scene in the Pacific Ocean off Oregon is looking promising despite some challenging weather conditions recently. Weather and tides. Today you can expect partly cloudy skies with a high of around 62 degrees Fahrenheit and a low of 50 degrees. The winds are moderate, blowing at about 10 mph from the northwest. Tides are crucial for fishing, and today we have a high tide at 9.15 am and a low tide at 3.15 pm, which should provide some good windows for fishing. Sunrise and Sunset. Sunrise is at 7.24 am and Sunset will be at 6.24 pm, giving you a full day to get out on the water. Fish activity. Yesterday saw a mix of fish activity, particularly for those targeting bottom fish and halibut. The ocean conditions, although a bit rough, did not deter anglers from catching some nice rockfish, lingcod, and even some halibut. According to reports, the tackle buster crew managed to catch some really nice rockfish and averaged a lingcod per person despite the slower start due to adverse ocean conditions. Types and amounts of fish caught. The primary catches included rockfish with a good mix of black, deacon, china, and yellowtail rockfish. Lingcod catches were also notable, especially in areas like depot bay and Newport. Halibut fishing, though winding down still yielded some catches, particularly for those fishing in the central Oregon coast and southern Oregon sub areas. Best lures and bait. For rockfish and lingcod, using jigs and lures that mimic their natural prey works well. Squid and shrimp are excellent baits for these species. For halibut, larger jigs and bait, such as herring or anchovies, can be very effective. Hot spots. If you're looking for some hot spots, consider the areas around depot bay and Newport. These ports have seen consistent catches of rockfish and lingcod. Another good spot is the area shoreward of the 40-fathom regulatory line from Cape Falcon to Humbug Mountain, where you can still catch Chinook salmon, though coho salmon are currently off limits in this area. Overall, it's a good time to get out on the water, especially if you're targeting bottomfish and halibut. Just be sure to check the latest regulations and weather forecasts before you head out.

Listen to this message from Ted Delacath, former Army infantryman and Ranger qualified platoon leader active in the Army Reserves. When I enlisted in the Army, I sworn oath to this country, not any political party. That's why I'm interested in citizens ballot measures around the country to reduce the power of political parties. Colorado votes on 1-2. Right now, election rules allow political insiders to hand-pick party nominees. It's the reason we're usually stuck voting for the lesser of two evils. Colorado's plan creates an open primary where all candidates appear on one primary ballot. Every voter has the freedom to vote for any candidate, no matter which party. The Colorado plan advances four candidates to the general election, not two. That means more choices for voters in the primary and general election. Get the facts. Elections belong to the voters, not political parties. Paid for by veterans for all voters, Anthony Haas registered agent. The use of military rank and job titles does not imply endorsement by the Department of the Army or the Department of Defense of this ballot measure.
