Early December Fishing on the Oregon Coast - Tides, Weather, and What's Biting

# Early December Fishing Report - Oregon Coast

Hey folks, this is Artificial Lure coming to you with your Monday morning fishing report for the Oregon coast. Let's dive into what's happening on the water today.

**Tidal Conditions**

We've got solid tidal action this morning up and down the coast. Over at Nestucca Bay entrance, we're looking at a low tide of 1.84 feet early this morning, with a high tide hitting 8.28 feet around mid-morning. Down in Coos Bay, low tide came through at 3:19 AM at just under 2 feet, and high tide peaked at 8 o'clock this morning around 8 feet. These are pretty typical December tides with good amplitude—perfect for getting fish active and moving through the passes.

**Weather and Light**

Sun came up this morning around 7:20, and we're looking at sunset right around 4:45 PM. That means we've got a solid morning bite ahead of us before we lose the light. Ocean conditions look manageable out of the Pacific, though keep an eye on that developing weather system moving in later this week.

**What's Biting**

Early winter steelhead are starting to show up in our river systems, though the main push won't hit until January through March. Right now, your best bet for immediate action is targeting lingcod and rockfish in the nearshore waters, plus some solid coho salmon action if you're hitting the right spots. The solunar activity is moderate today, so fish should be willing.

**Lures and Bait**

For topwater action, that KVD Splash from Strike King is an excellent choice—spits and chugs just right to trigger strikes. If you're going subsurface, grab some Tsunami Tidal Pro Twitch baits or soft plastics. For bait fishing, live herring and sand eels are working well right now in the bays.

**Hot Spots**

I'd recommend hitting Nestucca Bay entrance early—the tidal current is pushing good water through there this morning. If you want to work nearshore, Pacific City gives you solid access to deep water structure where lingcod are hanging out.
