I would think Fox Island pier would be your best bet :dunno:

You'd have a better chance walking down the tracks from Titlow park on the Tacoma side and fishing the banks up from there. Not very much action from the pier out here. Every now and then you hear of a guy catching a salmon or jigging herring from it but I don't think there is much habitat for ling around it.
