STRUCTURE
Drop Off
Outer Exposed

Coquille Rock is an outer-exposed rocky drop-off off Charleston, Oregon, where the bottom falls away through a depth range of roughly 330 to 1310 feet. The hard structure holds Lingcod, which peak from January through March and again in December, alongside a mix of Shelf, Canary, and Yelloweye Rockfish, Pacific Cod, and Pacific Halibut that peaks May through September. Lingcod respond to jigging with metal jigs, swimbaits, or leadhead jigs worked along the rock, while live greenling or whole herring cover the fish holding tight to structure. Halibut here take a drift-fished herring, salmon belly, octopus, or squid presented across the deeper edges of the drop. Chinook and Coho Salmon move through from June to September and are worked with trolled cut-plug herring, spoons, and hoochies over the same exposed ground.
