About Cabrillo Point Hump
Cabrillo Point Hump is an exposed rocky pinnacle off Fort Bragg, rising through depths of 25 to 95 feet on the outer coast. The structure holds lingcod, which peak in January and February and again in August and September, alongside aggregate rockfish that run strongest from April through September and cabezon that come on in March through May and again in September and October. Anglers work the rock with metal jigs and swimbaits for lingcod, while bottom fishing with shrimp flies, squid strips, and metal jigs takes the rockfish holding tight to the pinnacle. Cabezon respond to squid, shrimp, and crab fished on the bottom across the same broken terrain. Chinook salmon move through from April to September and are targeted by trolling anchovies, herring, and spoons over the deeper water surrounding the hump.
