Entrance Range Hump is a rocky pinnacle rising from 130 to 145 feet of water in the outer exposed waters off Astoria, Oregon. The structure holds Chinook Salmon through their spring and summer peaks from March to April and again May through September, with Coho Salmon following from July into October. Lingcod stack on the rock through the winter run from January to March, while Black Rockfish concentrate around the pinnacle from May to August, and Pacific Halibut work the surrounding bottom from March through August. Salmon respond to trolling with cut-plug herring, whole herring, or anchovy behind flashers, and mooching whole herring holds bait in the strike zone over deeper structure. Lingcod and Black Rockfish come to jigging with metal jigs and swimbaits worked tight to the rock, while drift fishing herring and squid covers the halibut ground.
