To fish Neah Bay Seabass, the all time #1 lure is a twin tail grub. It is smoke in color and has silver glitter in it. It is roughly 3" long and you use a 2 oz. leadhead jig. This will out fish anything out there. Last year we did it with trout poles. He is right, they will yank the rod out of your hands. We get feeding frenzies going where everyone on the boat will have a fish on at the same time. We filled both wells on my trophy with Seabass. We had to start throwing them back. We have had 6 on at a time. When TommyCod was thinking about buying his latest charter boat, which he runs now. We took it on a test voyage. He only brought the rods with one of these twin tails each on them. He forgot to bring extra. We had 9 people on the boat. Seven were fishers, Tom, and deckhand. His deckhand went to gaff a seabass and knocked my friends fish and his jig off. They ended up losing all but three jigs. I would not let anyone touch my jig. The darts have trebles and hook on the bottom and are lost quickly. The three of us limited the boat out for everyone else. Boy were the ones that lost their jigs ticked. Out of Westport use a red/yellow shrimp fly with three hooks on it. It is made out of red and yellow poly rope strands. The smoked grub used to be available at Snow Creek by Neah Bay. Don't know if it is open now or they even carry them any more. Johns Sporting goods in Everett carries them with the jigs. Get the smaller grub over the larger, you won't be sorry. The hot spots in Neah Bay are around the back of Tatoosh and Duncan Rock. I am going to the Sekiu Balckmouth Derby in Feb and am going out a day early to get Seabass.
