Pacific Ocean Oregon Fishing Report: Redfish, Trout, and Rockfish Bites - Oct 21, 2025
Published 6 months, 1 week ago
Description
Good morning anglers, Artificial Lure here with your Pacific Ocean Oregon fishing report for Tuesday, October 21st, 2025.
Starting with the tides at Nestucca Bay entrance, we had a high at 1:12 AM reaching 6.41 feet, followed by a low at 7 AM hitting 1.86 feet. We're looking at another high tide coming in at 12:45 PM climbing to 7.74 feet, then dropping to a minus 0.07 feet at 7:46 PM. That evening low tide is going to be your prime time for working the bay structures.
Weather-wise, we're sitting pretty good right now with calm conditions following that high-pressure ridge that moved through. Sunrise hit at 7:40 AM and we've got until 6:19 PM before sunset, giving us a solid fishing window.
Recent catches have been impressive. Over at Oregon Inlet, anglers pulled nice redfish around 30 inches using cut bait on the shoals, with plenty of speckled trout hitting live bait and popping corks at inshore spots. The Chetco River mouth has been producing good salmon action. Rock fishing has been phenomenal, with boats like the Dolphin reporting limits of rockfish working depths between 400 to 600 feet on their morning runs.
For targeting these waters today, I'm recommending cut bait for redfish if you're working Oregon Inlet area. Live bait under popping corks is deadly for speckled trout right now. If you're heading offshore for rockfish, standard jigs in the 400 to 600-foot range are producing. Crane Prairie and Paulina Lake have both been trending well for late October shore fishing, with East Lake offering excellent wade access.
Hot spots to hit: First, focus on the Chetco River mouth for salmon. Second, work the shoals around Oregon Inlet for those big redfish and follow up with inshore structure for trout. If you're boat fishing, those 400 to 600-foot depths offshore are loaded with rockfish right now.
The fish are biting, conditions are cooperative, and we've got that sweet low tide coming this evening. Get out there and make it count.
Thanks for tuning in, and don't forget to subscribe for your daily fishing updates.
