Halibut [ul] [li]It is that time of the year when the halibut fishing starts to slow down. The weather gets nasty and the big flat fish start to move into deeper over-wintering habitat. [li]Halibut fishing outside the bay remains good to very good with the best fishing still found to the east toward Montague Island. [li]Good halibut fishing can also be found west toward Aialik and Harris bays.[/li][/ul]
Salmon [ul] [li]Silver fishing in Resurrection Bay is good, and the head of the bay is where the best fishing is to be found. [li]The Seward beach fishery is picking up. Some, but not all, flood tides are starting to bring nice fish into the shore. These can be caught from the shore, by trolling right off the shore, or anchoring and casting spinners. [li]Try the beach off the Seward Lagoon outflow, the beach of Lowell Creek, or the South Beach off Lowell Point.[/li][/ul]Fresh Waters
Salmon -Resurrection Bay [ul] [li]There is no fresh water salmon fishing open in Resurrection Bay drainages. [/li][/ul]Northern Pike/Atlantic Salmon [ul] [li]Please report the catch of any northern pike or Atlantic salmon as soon possible to ADF&G at (907) 267-2218[/li][/ul]
