Best Deep Sea Fishing Fishing Spots in Westport
From legendary bays to productive reefs, here are the top deep sea fishing fishing spots your captain will target in the Westport area.
La Perouse Bank
La Perouse Bank is a major offshore fishing destination roughly 25 miles from Westport where a broad underwater plateau concentrates Pacific halibut, lingcod, and rockfish over productive hard bottom. The bank is one of the premier halibut grounds on the Washington coast.
Westport Canyon
The submarine canyon offshore of Westport creates upwelling that attracts Chinook salmon during their coastal migration and albacore tuna during warm-water years. Trolling the canyon edges produces quality salmon from spring through fall for Westport's large charter fleet.
Grays Harbor Tuna Grounds
The warm-water boundaries 40 to 60 miles offshore of Westport attract albacore tuna during their late-summer migration, making Westport one of Washington's primary albacore ports. The tuna fishery provides exciting light-tackle action from August through October.
The Prairie
The Prairie is an expansive flat area of the continental shelf offshore of Westport where Pacific halibut spread across the sandy bottom during summer months. Charter boats from Westport drift the Prairie with bait rigs for quality halibut during the open season.
