What anglers said about fishing in Willapa Bay

Fishing in early summer is a roll of the dice with weather. Excellent Sturgeon fishing in the main river, but conditions in the afternoon can be a little choppy to do salmon or rockfish. Come prepared with waterproof clothing and sunscreen as necessary.

Smart to over prepare for changing weather conditions, thereโ€™s nowhere to hide and on the water it can be cold and rough. Thereโ€™s no bathroom so just know and adjust.

Fish in the bay\river. It may be rough going across the bar for a newbie. But expect to catch fish, because you will!

Understand that it's great to catch fish but depending on weather and conditions of the water there is no guarantee on leaving with fish.

Fishing in July is a great balance between catching fish but not being too crowded with the number of boats in the water.
