Neah Bay Jetty?

[TeacherMan]

As a kid I grew up fishing Neah Bay every year. I never saw anyone fishing off the jetty. We would take our boat around to the outside and cast for black bass there and do good. I always wondered why people don’t fish it from shore? And if you’re not allowed to fish from shore could you launch a kayak off the jetty and just fish along the kelp beds with it?

Thanks in advanced 🤙🏻

We would take our boat to the outside of the jetty and cast whole herring towards the jetty. BIG ling cod live in the caverns that the huge boulders create......then cast 6 inch curly tail one ounce jig (white) for the bass...Great times.

You could launch a kayak from the jetty parking lot and probably get some bass out in the bay. I've seen a few kayak guys this year fishing...just watch out for all us big boat jerks... And Obviously weather dependant. I guess it's possible to hook into a couple casting, but it's pretty shallow right off the rocks
And it's a long long walk out to Waadah island.

Or you could holler at me if u ever want a boat ride. I may or may not spend allot of time out there..

Is it a legal thing fishing from the jetty because it’s on tribal land? If so can you get a license?

[Mtnwalker]

Sounds like some do it. Not sure about the tribal thing, hopefully somebody here can answer that

You'll have to swing into big salmon and buy the makah rec pass. As far as I know there's no issues fishing from the beach... just follow the state regs.

Haven't been out there in years but you were supposed to buy a combo license for parking on the Rez and a Makah fishing license. I bought mine at their large grocery store.

I know guys spear fish the jetty. That’s all know about it. Neah bay is a special place! Good luck

I have speared on it quite a few times.  The Blacks are not big like other inshore areas in area four and what Lings you catch will be on the small side.  It is a very popular place for shore bound spearos and is best hit when Lings open in spring.
