The Canary Rockfish is a highly sought-after game fish along the Pacific coast, known for its vibrant orange and yellow coloration and delicious flavor.

Their prevalence from California to Washington makes them accessible to many West Coast anglers.
Canary Rockfish Fishing in Westport
If you're targeting Canary Rockfish on the Washington coast, Westport is a prime jumping-off point. What makes Westport special is its proximity to productive offshore reefs and rocky structures that these fish call home. The season typically peaks during the summer and early fall months (June-September) when the weather is more predictable and the ocean swells subside, making for safer and more comfortable fishing. Lingcod season often overlaps, giving you a shot at a mixed bag. A key tip for Westport is to pay close attention to the tides – fishing around slack tide near structure can be incredibly effective. Access is easy via the Westport Marina, which has ample boat launches and charter services available. Be prepared for potentially rough seas and always check the marine forecast before heading out. Canary Rockfish in this area are known to be relatively deep-dwelling, so bring appropriate gear for jigging or using baited rigs in 150-300 feet of water.
