Edmonds Pier is a good place to go.  I go over there with my daughter and we do pretty good.
They say the best times to go is December and January.  But they are in now.
I was over there a couple of weeks ago and watch some guys get a few.
Maybe I'll see you out there some night

I'm going to try Stillicom Friday night. I drove down and checked Sunday and there was a few folks getting some.

May be a bit of a drive...but Dash Point Pier has been crazy good.  I took my two boys out there last weekend and in about an hour we had a bucket full.  Every time I've been out there these past few weeks they have been there in large numbers.  Of course there's a crowd at the end of the dock but even though they don't speak English, they are very friendly.

I went from 5pm to 9pm last night. I've always done better on a in coming tide and best around high water, I hit out going to low water last night.
I only got 20 but I bet it would be better around high tide.

Anybody have suggestions for a boat-less fisherman in the West Sound?  I don't know of any long piers out into the sound.

Go down to pier 57 in Seattle guys were slamming them the other night

Nobody posting is using a boat.

The big squid fishing piers are Edmonds, Steilacoom, and Dash Point as mentioned above.  Seems early to be getting them in numbers. Congrats to those filling their buckets.

Thanks, Ed.  What about similar piers on the west side of the sound?  Are there any?
