Fish Pirate:

Try fishing Kayak Pt. Co. Park (saltwater) up in Snohomish Co. on this weekend set of high tides. The rain we had last week should of helped flush the dollies out of the river as they follow out the downstream migration of salmon smolts. As you know it's all mandatory catch & release for cutthroat & dollies now in the salt. Try using small Canadian Wonders (size 0) in chrome with a single split shot for casting from the beach or small cut plug herring. I pinch my barbs since its all catch & release. I've already caught a few during the last set of high tides and this weekend should be hot! Try fishing the tide about an 1-1 1/2 hours before the high and the first hour after high tide. Don't be discouraged if you don't see anything jumping, they are there just cruising along the shoreline like little opportunistic sharks. You only need to cast about 10 - 15 yards out they usually slam your lure right at your feet!

Keep your hooks sharp!
