wdfw has put out press releases detailing the "halibut hotspot" reopening along with the new c-shaped yelloweye closure area for areas 3-4. the numbers of the open area will get you close, studying charts will get you closer.

you can reach this area either from la push or neah bay.

for charters, i would recommend any of the boats fishing out of neah bay. the Satin Doll II, Tommycod, Discovery, Advantage, Kingfisher, etc. will all get you halibut regardless of whether they fish this new area or not.

i'm looking forward to exploring this new area, especially on the rougher days, when a sw run will be a lot better than a west run .
