Best of LUCK on that location:-# will be needed maybe a miracle or 3:-$ :colors:

That being said if you have good electronics and power at the Transducer look for Structures, reefs, man made, nature or side drops with Pinicles in many rows.

Do not fish open flat sand waters and read into the tide that impacts there and your chances as well!:cyclopsan

Floppy oil can color plastics with some golds in the mold!

Fresh herring and my fav Mr Octypus some stink and let your bait touch your area then just do simple wrist rolls with your (ROD):-$ you do not have to get mayor Jiggy with it to get Lings.

The correct structures, location, habitat is the key= fish right off the barrier off the Edmonds Marina just off the rocks stay off them 25 to 30 yards yards and pitch to them and work your Presentation back similar to Bass fishing letting it touch the bottom without getting hung up for the choices you gave me this is about the best Code I can give you to finish:cheers: :thumleft: =d>

The piggys in the dive park where you cannot fish force the correct Keeper size fish to the Barrier and rocks.

Oh you will have some company I share too much!:-# Fish on!!

Yes for the tea and cupcake crowd:-({|= before pitching Bend down your barb:albino: we use 20lb poly clear Maxima and steelhead rods with fast action tips in tight!:chef:

This is a release smaller fish but to show there here and the 1st 2 days 1-3 piggys will be shared to a few:bounce:

There are always a few nice sized lingers taken off the breakwater at shilshole. As for bait, the flats just inside the meadow point can is home to a large population of small sand dabs, AKA Lingcod Crack. Keep em alive ( yes it's legal ) an let 'em swim just above the rocks. I like a 4oz mooching sinker and a 6ft double hook setup. Pin the front hook in the skin just behind the head. make sure the trailer hook is visible around the tail. Lings are not hook or leader shy when chasing live prey. Remember, the linger will hold the bait, even if not hooked, until it comes out of the water. Another spot to try , is the rocky bank just north of the Alki launch. Not a hot spot, but worth a try. Another spot to try with a small craft is deception pass. The launch at cornet bay is less than 5 mins away and at an ebb tide, lots of rocks to find lingers on both sides of the bridge. Good luck.

We love to see lingers smile and show us their teeth. Faces only their mothers could eat.
