WHERE and HOW to fish from shore on the Homer spit AK Alaska cod flounder
Drive to the end of the spit for fishing. There is parking near Lands End and walk down to the beach. Try to cast out to the piling / platform as far as you can. Herring works the best. If you haven't got a bite in 10 minutes either you have no bait or you need new bait. They love fresh bait. Change your bait often if you want to catch a bunch of fish. (If you use any of this information, please post a response on your success!) I use a size #6 hook, not too big. I put on some weight, too heavy and the fish won't budge it, too light and it gets blown away (about the size from my pinkie tip to the second knuckle. I put on a quarter size chunk or a little bigger and cast gently. Herring is a soft meat and too much force when casting and it shoots off. Cast out gently, let it drop, real in any slack and wait for a tug, then wait a few seconds and tug back. Real in and do it again. Low tide is the best as you can get closer to the pilings. The super super minus tides has the end piling up to the edge of the water and fisherman can have a blast on these ultra low tides reeling in cod, when the tide is this low casting lures works well. I like using a Twister Tail and jig head if I do cast. It is cheap and works great, plus you can get then easily in any of the 50 states and Canada. These work well and are CHEAP!!! No need to lose a $5-$8 lure when you get snagged. A fifty cent jobber works just as good or better and who really cares when you get snagged. You can lose 10-15 of these set up for every pixie or vibrax lost. I use a white twister tail, but I an sure any color works. I use at least a 1/8 oz jig head or bigger. I have never been skunked down there and is a great way to spend an afternoon. I catch gray cod, flounder, tomcod, sometime silvers are caught on the end casting spoons. I prefer to just relax and use cut bait. fishing toward slack tide is best otherwise the current can be too much and low tide is the best as you can get closer to the pilings. All the water that goes in and out of Kachemak Bay pushes past the spit.
If you are going to be in Homer and are waiting to head out on a halibut charter to just want something to do this can be fun. This is a cheap and enjoyable time. If your spouse is on a charter and you have the kids this would be a great way to spend part of the day, plus you don't have to worry about them breaking anything in the gift shops. The view is spectacular from there as well. You will see a ton of boats and the mountains just across. You won't catch any Halibut (atleast) I've never seen it done but have heard of a few, so they might be in there or they may just be fish stories. At certain times of the year fish can be caught in the lagoon. If the silvers are in you'll see a bunch of fisherman and this is best when the tide is coming up, in the lagoon eggs, vibrax or a pixie can be a good choice(not cut bait), but the end of the spit still sees way more action and to me is way more fun!

When the seas are too rough to go out on the charter and the charters say no, and you need something to do while your in Homer beside hitting the gift shops again. You can catch some bottom fish and still have an Alaskan fish dinner, just probably not halibut. I have never tried hotdogs but I know I have tipped my halibut hooks with them and caught fish. Try Hotdogs if you want to save a few bucks. I always just used the cheapest hotdog brand I could buy. Any viscera would work as well just make sure you keep your bait changed regularly and bring plenty of weight/lead to cast your bait out there. Hi and low tides work great! You can also hit the cleaning tables and help clean some fish at the cleaning stations if your board. I know most everyone throws out the fish and you salvage a decent amount of meat off the fish. Most everyone will gladly let you take the cheeks. You could probably get 5 pounds of halibut from going through and cleaning up someone elses limit. Cheap way to get some halibut and they are just going to throw it out. When I come in I always love it when someone offers to help clean a few of my fish, but some people are all high and mighty and don't want anyone even looking at their fish. These are typically the people that hog the cleaning stations and take FOREVER to clean their fish. Just talk to them and if they're nice they'll have no issue showing you how its done and letting you dig out a few cheeks and cleaning out some meat off the soft stomach area that is often discarded at the stations.
The flounders are a nice tasting white meat with no worms in them that I have seen. If I keep a cod I fillet it and the use my knife to take out any worms. Some people just cook them warm enough and eat them. I let the cod go or give them away as I hate digging out worms and have enough halibut. ( Gryga )
After a drink at the Salty Dog Saloon just walk.
Best of Luck and Tight Lines!!!

Man Catches 200-Year-Old Fish In Alaska
Fisherman Henry Liebman recently made a deep-sea catch he'll never forget, reeling in a record-setting shortraker rockfish. Caught off the coast of Sitka, Alaska, Liebman's fish weighed in at nearly 40 lbs. (the previous high was 38.69 pounds). That's impressive and all, but here's the mindblowing part: The fish is estimated to be nearly two centuries old.
A fisherman in Alaska took home a catch for the ages recently when he reeled in a 40-pound shortraker rockfish that experts believe is at least 200 years old.
The Daily Sitka Sentinel reported that Henry Liebman of Seattle was deep-sea fishing off the coast of Alaska on June 21 when he hooked the record-setting shortraker fish from a depth of approximately 900 feet.
I knew it was abnormally big (but I) didn't know it was a record until on the way back we looked in the Alaska guide book that was on the boat, Liebman told the paper.
Shortrakers, which have hues of orange, pink or red on top of their white bodies, are one of the most commonly sought fish in Alaska and can live at depths of more than 2,500 feet.
Troy Tidingco, Sitka area manager for the state Department of Fish and Game, said the fish is still being analyzed but he believes it is at least 200 years old. Tidingco said that would beat the current record of 175 years. Researchers are able to determine the age of a shortraker by the number of growth rings along its ear bone.
However, a previously caught rougheye rockfish, similar to the shortraker, was believed to have been 205 years old. Still, Tydingco said that record-setting fish was quite a bit smaller than the 41-inch specimen Liebman caught.
In 2007, a commercial fisherman caught a similarly sized rockfish that turned out to be 115 years old. Amazingly, researchers from the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Association say that fish was still fertile at the time of its capture. The belly was large, NOAA researcher Paul Spencer told The Associated Press. The ovaries were full of developing embryos.
Liebman told the paper he plans to have the fish mounted back home in Seattle, but he did provide the Alaska Department of Fish and Game with a sample so its age could be determined.
Tidingco noted that if the fish is actually as old as believed, it would easily predate the Alaska Purchase in 1867.
Scientists say they still don't fully understand animal longevity. Normally, smaller animals tend to outlive larger ones, though that does not necessarily appear to be true with the rockfish. The oldest known animal on record was a clam believed to have been 400-years-old.
Alaska fishing boat - could you land it ? - Ninilchik, AK
A semi stormy day at Marine Services at Deep Creek in Ninilchik, AK. Converted logging skidders back into the ocean because the tides are too extreme to build a boat ramp. A driver and two 'waterboys' straighten and winch the boat.
Heading out of Seward Alaska, to the North Pacific for Halibut Fishing.avi
This is a charter fishing trip my Buddy and I took out of Seward Alaska (Seward Military Resort) in September 2010 to go Halibut fishing in the North Pacific. It was a 3 hours boat ride one way and the swells were over 6 feet once we got to the fishing grounds. 12 guests on board and 10 got terribly sick. Me, I stayed on the aft deck the whole trip and escaped the sea sickness bug. Caught our 2 Halibut limit in 20 minutes and was delighted to head back to shore. Never going to do this again. I look at this as a once in a lifetime experience with no need to try it again. We hiked and fished the inland lakes the rest of the week and had a great time. Went again for 2 weeks in 2011 to Denali etc. Write me at apfishon@roadrunner.com if you would like to know more about feet on the ground Alaska. Never going to go on a cruise....Thanks for viewing ....Al Parker
Fishing Vessel hits large Sailing Vessel in Good Visibility 20/8/2010
Here is the press release from this incident.
At a hearing 30/05/2011 at Southampton Magistrates the Officer of the Watch of a fishing vessel pleaded guilty to one safety charge brought under Section 58 of the Merchant Shipping Act 1995. He was fined £1,700 plus costs of £6,435.
On the 20th August 2010 the Andrea had finished fishing and was returning to port in the Netherlands. The skipper and rest of the crew were below leaving Jan Baarssen alone on the bridge in sole charge of the vessel. The Andrea is a 36.5 metre beam trawler registered in the UK but is based in the Netherlands
The Alexander von Humboldt was returning to Germany after a training voyage with a crew of fifty nine (59) consisting of thirty three (33) trainees and twenty six (26) full time crew. She is a large three masted sail training vessel registered in Germany.
The visibility on the day was good (10 Km +), wind was southerly force 5-6 with weather being grey and overcast.
During the afternoon of the 20th August 2011 the Alexander von Humboldt detected the Andrea on a steady bearing on its port side. The Andrea was not fishing and was the give way vessel. The Alexander von Humboldt started sounding its whistle. The Andrea failed to give way. The Alexander von Humboldt also tried to contact the Andrea by VHF radio but had no response. The Andrea claims to have gone hard to starboard and when within 15-20 metres of the Alex von Humboldt, the Andrea was seen to go full astern. The Andrea struck the port quarter of the Alexander von Humboldt. It was a fairly low speed collision.
Apart from some scratched paintwork, the Andrea was undamaged.
The Alexander von Humboldt was lucky to suffer only some dented shell plating with associated damage to internal wooden bulkheads and deck planking together with bent or buckled handrails. It was very fortunate that no harm came to the crew of the Alexander von Humboldt and that its rigging and watertight integrity remained intact.
Mr Jan Baarssen, 51, of Urk, Netherlands pleaded guilty for conduct endangering ships or persons. He was finerd£1,700 plus costs of £6,435
In passing sentence the Magistrates stated that it was fortunate that they were no injuries especially among the sail training crew.
Mr David Fuller O.B.E., Principal Fishing Vessel Surveyor for the Eastern Region of the MCA stated:This is yet another incident occurring on the return of a fishing vessel to harbour. Fishermen are reminded of the requirement to keep a good lookout at all times. Also that that the trip is not over until the vessel is safely tied up in port.
We would like to thank the German and Netherlands Police for their assistance in this matter

Fisherman Caught on Video Jumping into Water to Avoid Crash
A salmon fisherman who abandoned ship by leaping into the frigid waters of the Columbia River last summer -- an instant before another motorboat crashed into his -- has filed a $372,500 lawsuit against the other driver.
Clatsop County sheriff’s deputies accused boat driver Marlin Lee Larsen of several crimes after the 75-year-old told investigators he couldn’t see where he was driving because he was sitting down and the dash of his boat was blocking his view. Larsen said he probably should have been standing, according to the sheriff’s report, which notes Larsen uses a motorized scooter to get around on land.
Larsen’s son-in-law, who also was on the boat, told investigators that he had warned his father-in-law to pay attention, that he sometimes sees his father-in-law using his cell phone while driving the boat and that his father-in-law had been off-and-on his cell phone the morning of the crash, according to the sheriff’s report.
Although Oregon law heavily restricts cell phone use while driving, there are no such specific laws governing boating. But it is against the law to operate a boat without due care.
The lawsuit, filed earlier this month, claims Larsen was boating while distracted by his cell phone on the morning of the Aug. 12, 2017, when the crash occurred near the mouth of the Columbia at the Pacific Ocean, just east of Fort Stevens State Park.
The suit was filed by Bryan Maess, 47, an off-duty Hermiston police officer fishing with a law-enforcement co-worker, Christopher McMahon, 46. Another friend, Roni Durham, 57, a Clatskanie resident, also was aboard.
A GoPro camera mounted to the Weldcraft fishing boat captured the frantic seconds as Larsen’s Bayliner Trophy motorboat speeds directly at them. McMahon can be seen waving his arms and yelling in an attempt to get Larsen to steer clear -- just before the trio jump into the water.
The video was shared with The Oregonian/OregonLive by the publication Salmon Trout Steelheader and Angling Oregon, the latter of which is an online fishing website of McMahon's. The video encourages boaters to wear life jackets. Maess and McMahon weren't wearing life jackets. Durham was, but it didn't inflate.
Sheriff’s investigators wrote that it was likely Maess and the others would have been seriously injured or killed if they hadn’t jumped into the water.
Maess suffered vision problems, headaches and injuries to his ankle, leg and arm from jumping into the water or being struck by debris, according to the suit. Five months after the crash, he wears a knee brace, the suit says.
McMahon and Durham also suffered injuries, including cuts or hypothermia. They haven’t filed suit against Larsen but have hired attorneys who say they plan to. Portland attorney Josh Lamborn said his client, Durham, also has suffered psychological trauma and, even though fishing is a big part of her life, hasn’t been able to go back out on a boat since the crash.
Larsen, a Roseburg resident, told The Oregonian/OregonLive by phone Friday that he wasn’t using his cellphone while driving his Bayliner and referred to such allegations as “fake news.” Larsen also said a lawsuit seemed unnecessary because the people in the Weldcraft weren’t hurt badly.
The criminal case is ongoing. Larsen has pleaded not guilty to the misdemeanor crimes of reckless operation of a boat, fourth-degree assault and recklessly endangering the lives of others.
The suit was filed in Clatsop County Circuit Court. Portland attorney James McCandlish is representing Maess.

Weird Jumping Alien Asian Carp Invade the Illinois River. In the 1970's silver carp were accidentally introduced into the Illinois River after escaping from a fish farm.
