me and my couisin got 2 keepers last weekend fishing off his sailboat at a Hayden Island marina! very light gear ( steelhead rods ) 12# test- small barbless hooks..
sand shrimp did the trick...................less that 1 oz weight....
being an x deadliest catch guy, I like to start eating the bait if I can't find a spot on the rail.. once I down a couple raw herring or squid I usually get the rail to myself..
