Finally tore myself away from the rivers to hit my favorite piers (Federal Way / Tacoma areas) this past weekend, and I'm glad I did, although I see what others are saying about a mixed bag.
Â
Saturday morning, caught high tide at 4:30am and had a great morning. Â Went home with about 5 pounds in 3 hours. Â BIG squid! Â Caught my biggest one yet that morning. Â Fried them up yesterday...deeeeelicious!
Â
Sunday morning was a different story. Â Started at 5:30am and switched to another pier that fishes well in the daylight once the sun was up. Â Both piers were rough. Very high winds and choppy water. Â Stronger current than Saturday as well. Â Was not a very productive day. Â Caught about 20 or so and then threw in the towel. Â Was very slow.
Â
I'll be back out there more often though...love them JUMBOS!
