CATCHING Lingcod on the Newport Oregon South Jetty

[@CryptoArena-pq5cz]

I live right next to a oregon jetty I appreciate the tips.

[@righteousriverfishinginoregon7]

You bet. I hope it helps you get more fish. Fish on!

[@charleshouston6571]

Back in the day, caught my share of lings off that jetty. Nice to see it is still producing.

Walking to the end of that jetty can be brutal busted myself up real good. Nicely done on the Ling!

[@righteousriverfishinginoregon7]

Yes! Brutal! I have been injured a few good times out there. One time on the Winchester Bay jetty I fell and sprained my ankle and busted 1 rod. I still continued out to the end and caught a huge lingcod. These cool kids knew I was injured and netted it for me. You def gotta be safe out there and take your time.

Great job, no easy feat, gaffing a ling in swirling water off slippery rocks!

[@righteousriverfishinginoregon7]

True! It's always difficult. Any day I can get a ling is a great day. I can't wait for the day that I can get an ocean boat and get the big ones in the big pond. Thanks for watching friend.

Nice dude. I use the Gulp Alive 3inch Shrimp. They work great

[@righteousriverfishinginoregon7]

Oh nice, that's a small bait. Do you catch any lings on those?

Excellent! Jigs and swim baits are my go to. I have lots of other jetty videos. Check them out for more tips. Good luck.

I love the “ Praise God!” Whenever you catch one! We go camping at south beach state park down the beach there every year with friends from our church! Nice to see someone out there!

@@righteousriverfishinginoregon7 no problem 🙏

[@2HighNoon]

What line/leader size are you using?

[@righteousriverfishinginoregon7]

I run a average and heavy setup. Average I run 40lb braid to the jig and sometimes run a 20lb leader. The heavy setup I run either 50-60 lb mono or 80 lb braid because if you target big ling and hook one you need line that won't cut easily on the sharp rocks. Fish on!

[@2HighNoon]

@@righteousriverfishinginoregon7 wow I'm gonna need to get some braid then. 😅 I've got 15# mono on my real right now. 💯 New to saltwater fishing. I literally bought a 7' surf rod and reel recently when I moved to the coast knowing little to nothing about what I'm doing. 😅 I think the real is a 4000 or 5000. Gotta try and make due with what I've got for now. But the line is definitely an immediate upgrade or I'll lose any fish I hook into apparently. I've caught a surf perch and a baby flounder though. So not skunked, just no clue apparently. 😅 More KZbin! I'm learning. Thanks for the response.👍✌️

[@2HighNoon]

Walmart special 😅 I'm a poor man and trying. ✌️

[@righteousriverfishinginoregon7]

@@2HighNoon sweet. That rod is very short for the jetty, it's likely better for a boat, but you can make it work. Just upgrade the line. You don't need expensive line. If your using 1 oz jigs then get cheap 30lb mono and go get em. That will work for perch too. Fish on!

[@righteousriverfishinginoregon7]

@@2HighNoon walmart sells cheap tough mono. It will work. Or get 40lb braid and it will cast very far.

[@KwB83639]

Can you recommend where to razor clam ?

[@righteousriverfishinginoregon7]

I dig sand shrimp at the science center bay front. I believe there are clams there too, but I'm not completely sure.

[@chiosaechow9537]

Awesome catch! Do you have a link to those specific jig heads?

[@righteousriverfishinginoregon7]

@@chiosaechow9537 i dont because I buy them from a local guy. They are "darter head jigs." They sell them at most coastal tackle shops.

[@righteousriverfishinginoregon7]

Thanks dude! It is $$$ and the best jetty bait I have used.

[@richabrams6240]

Nice catch, would like to know how you fish those. On the bottom? Slow pulls/quick jerks or just cast and retrieve?

[@righteousriverfishinginoregon7]

Cast far. Let it drop to bottom. Keep slight tension. Then jig back with moderate jerks. Let it tap bottom, jerk, repeat. Once it gets close to shore reel it in so you don't get snagged. You will catch fish. It's completely on feel. I can do it with my eyes closed. Just feel the jig, the taps, the action, and then the fish.

[@KwB83639]

Just got to Newport and looking for outdoor recreation this looks awesome!!

[@righteousriverfishinginoregon7]

Nice. Newport is a nice town with good food, activities, and very good fishing. Check out Yaquina Bay Charters for a half day rock fishing trip for only about $100. It is well worth it.

Good luck. Have you tried the gulp alive swim baits I use? They are scented for saltwater and are $$$$

[@zombiebacon837]

I have not but I think I'll get some after I run through my stock pile of swim baits. I usually use kietechs with some procure, but I am going to definitely try the gulps. I use 3 inch gulp minnow on a high low rig and have had real good success.
