Fish can always be caught from the dock at the boat house.

I've never fished from the shore up there but you can rent a from the boat house. I don't remember what the summer time rates are but I think it's around $150 for the day.

I know I've always done well bottom fishing 50-100 yards off Owen's beach; there's always plenty of sole fish out there to catch. I'll bet you could catch a couple from the shore too.

Thanks for the reply’s guys went out and fished for a little with no luck... literally fished like 5 minutes was after dinner and a lot of walking around in the sun and the boy was pooped! Next time we will go out just to fish, hoping possibly tomorrow!

The final few paragraphs are probably most relevant to your question on fishing for pinks from shore.
“Just give me a comfortable couch, a dog, a good book, and a woman. Then if you can get the dog to go somewhere and read the book, I might have a little fun.”
