The best place to hook a Blackmouth while fishin from shore was at Pt. Defiance. I've seen a few caught at Ft. Casey on Whidbey Island and also at Pt. Evans. Fishin fer Blackmouth from shore is pretty ineffective. About the only way you'll have any luck is if you fish a point that has a good back eddy which will concentrate the bait. Fish at low tide (at Pt. D anything less than a +1 foot would work) and fish low light conditions. Ideally a minus tide shortly after first light is the best time. I've managed to catch a few over the years by doing just that.

Almost forgot -- There are some piers around that also can be effective, Pt Defiance boathouse, Fox Island etc.

Wish I could help ya out with some info on places closer to home..

Use the largest glow lure you can get away with.

Godd luck

Sincerely,
Roger
