Pile worms, sand worms and small crabs are all illegal now, due to the all encompassing "unclassified invertebrates" rule.
Yeah, really. :dunno:

If you just want to catch a fish, go for either pile perch or flounder.  For the latter, put a piece of squid or clam neck on a hook (or 2 hooks 12" apart), attach one or two ounces on the bottom and flip it out.  Slowly reeling or jigging works better than leaving it sit.  Just make sure the bottom is sandy and not rocky - you'll know after the first cast.

Used to fish the Edmonds pier. Cast out, let it get to bottom, then jig it back in. Caught quite a few kings that way
