If dory fishing is on your bucket list, then turn to Goins Outdoor Adventures for a fun and productive day on the Pacific City waters! Captain Bruce Goins will go out of his way to organize a memorable expedition that will exceed your angling expectations.

You'll be fishing out of a 24' Breaker Dory – a performance fisher that will put a spin on your fishing experience. Capt. Bruce will meet you in Pacific City and together you'll drive to the beach, from where you'll take the boat into the surf. From there, a 150 HP Yamaha engine will take you and up to 5 more people to the best fishing spots.

The species that will take center stage on your 6-hour trip are Black Seabass and Rockfish that are abundant in the area. The captain will set up crab traps on your way to the fishing grounds, and when you've had your share of action, you'll pull the traps and head for the beach.

There's a variety of techniques that you can try out, and your guide will provide quality G. Loomis and Shimano gear for you to use. If you'd like to do some fly fishing, feel free to bring your own equipment. After the trip, everything you catch, your guide will clean the catch and even cook Crab for your convenience.

Whether you come with your angling buddies or your family, Capt. Bruce will do his best to accommodate your preferences. Kids of all ages can come with you, there are life jackets on board for everyone. You can buy a fishing license before the trip or buy it on the boat, and you should bring a cooler with drinks and food, as well as waterproof shoes.

After that, a fishing expedition to remember with Goins Outdoor Adventures can begin!

    We had a great trip

    6 Hour Trip – Dory Fishing on August 3, 2026 • 2 adults

    We had a good experience even though it was a little rougher than expected. Very impressed with our captain and he worked hard which resulted in all six of us on the trip getting our limits on rock fish, salmon and crabs. The captain is highly knowledgeable regarding the area we were fishing in
