Rock fish and salmon

[TJR_84]

I went out of Newport yesterday fishing the jetty, about my 3rd drift down the rocks i hooked up with a nice 25lb chinook!!! I was not expecting that. she was clipped so she got bled and put on ice. The ocean was calm so i got out and fished some structures down south of newport caught a couple sea bass and some small lings. Not a bad day in all. Got back to the dock around 2:30.Found a boat selling some fresh tuna so i got 2. Spent the next hour cleaning fish. Tuna is tough to fillet. I will post pictures soon!!!

I'm gonna have to try drifting gear along the jetty here on the slaw next chance I get. I take it you were drifting herring under a float?

I was casting jigs towards the rocks and jigging for rock fish. I had on a 5" curl tail grub black in color and she slammed it.
