Off Oregon’s southern coast, the fishing village of Port Orford offers a rugged seascape where the Pacific Ocean meets dramatic bluffs and dense spruce forests. Two-Thirds Tours operates from this authentic harbor town, delivering a hands-on, four-hour charter fishing trip that puts anglers right into the heart of one of the region’s prime rockfish grounds. The waters here teem with diverse marine life, framed by basalt outcrops and kelp beds, making every cast and crab pot pull a chance to engage directly with some of the ocean’s most resilient species.
Two-Thirds Tours provides all the necessary gear and safety equipment—including U.S. Coast Guard–approved life jackets—and prioritizes a personalized experience with a maximum of four passengers per trip. Whether you’re a seasoned angler or casting your first line, the knowledgeable operators tailor the day to your interests, spending the majority of the trip targeting rockfish, hallmark residents of Oregon’s continental shelf, known for their striking colors and challenging fight.
What distinguishes this trip is the addition of recreational crabbing, allowing guests to deploy and retrieve crab traps, adding an electrifying layer of variety to the outing. The vessel’s provisions for safely storing your catch mean the bounty of the sea goes home with you, fresh and ready to prepare. Remember to bring your fishing and shellfish license along with weather-appropriate layers, as coastal fog and afternoon breezes are part of the experience.
