Catching like crazy from the beach man.. hard to believe the boats arent producing..
I see that you're from Silverdale and fishing in MA9 so I assume you're at Salisbury. If that's the case then you're one of the lucky ones. I own a cabin right next to Salisbury and targeted the troll in front of the launch and down towards the red barn on Foul Weather Bluff outside Port Gamble. I'd like to give a glowing report if I had one but the truth of the matter was that I didn't touch a fish all week
Yes Salisbury. . I have seen a ton of boats out trolling but havent seen them haul anything up. Honestly, I have been out there every morning for the last 4 weeks (minus a couple days for sleep catch up) and I have seen many fish daily pulled out from the beach there. I have hooked up almost daily mooching herring with a special brine and setup. Most fish are in the 5-6lb range but I have seen some 8-10lbs hooked. I have pulled out multiple 5-6lbs, a couple 7lbs and my big hen of the year at 8. One guy I see there every morning hooked a monster of a coho. When she jumped everyone there was in awe. Swore it was 12-15lbs. He got hen-handled by her tho and she about spooled him. We will never know how big she really was but ask anyone there and they will confirm..
