Spend the day with Josh Sutch Guide Service and see what’s biting in Coos Bay! Captain Joshua will be your guide, which means you’ll tap into years of local experience.
Species like Crab, Chinook Salmon, Black Rockfish, Sturgeon, Coho Salmon, Striped Bass, Salmon, Shad, Smallmouth Bass, Rainbow Trout (Steelhead), and more inhabit these waters, depending on the season. For these fish, you’re likely to troll and bottom fish using light or heavy tackle.
Families making of a day of it will be glad to know that kids are welcome aboard! Be sure to ask if child-sized life vests are available, otherwise you should bring your own. Feel free to bring your own snacks to keep up those energy levels!
Capt. Joshua operates a 22’ Willie jet boat with space for 6 passengers. It has everything you need for a productive day on the water. Rods, reels, and tackle are provided, as well as lures.
You will need to purchase a local fishing license before the trip. This information is usually available online, or you can ask the captain. Some species may be off limits or require a special tag, so make sure you know what to expect.
A few items to bring include sunglasses, sunscreen (non-spray), and bottled water. Alcohol is allowed in moderation, just be sure to avoid hard liquor as well as glass bottles.

Special 4 hour trip for Dee Mccallum
I am so happy that I chose Josh for the kids and I to go fishing! It was the first time my kids got to go out on the ocean and catch big fish! Josh was so patient and kind, and took the time to teach them things as we fished. Then when I started being seasick, I had the reassurance that the kids were in great hands, and he continued to give them an amazing experience. So grateful! We will definitely book with him again and highly recommend!
