Follow ODFW for the #12DaysOfFishmas

Every other day on Twitter and Instagram we’ll feature a native fish species, and some of the habitat they need to be successful. We’ll continue through Christmas Eve.

Winter whale watching

This year it’s a DYI adventure

It’s that time of year, when whales travel south along the Oregon coast. While there won’t be a visit to the Depoe Bay Whale Watching Center or with a volunteer from the Watching Spoken Here program (due to the Coronavirus), you can still go on your own. Oregon State Parks has put together a brochure, Oregon Coast Whale Watching, includes a map with the best whale watching sites and tips for whale watching. So, bring a pair a binoculars and scan the horizon slowly to catch a glimpse of these magnificent creatures.

Report your 2020 hunt

It's not too early

  • If all that’s left of your 2020 hunt are the memories, there’s still one last thing to do. You need to report your hunt and why wait until the last minute?  You can report online or with an ODFW license agent. ODFW offices remain closed to walk-in traffic.
