Nice catches. Those kelp greenling and the surfperch are my favorites for eating. That tope shark was pretty awesome. I have been trying to get one for the past couple years unsuccessfully. Were those guys fishing the end of the pier? Do you know what they used for bait? 👍

where did you dig the sandshrimp at

@seasonaloutdoorswitherin297 2 жыл бұрын

At low tide you can get these sand shrimp at the boat basin right at the entrance to the fishing peer.

@briangrendahl4635 Жыл бұрын

I thought they banned digging shrimp or using any wild caught bait

Man people been catching the crap outa sharks off that board walk deal this year.. everyone keeps them too.. gotta be doing some damage

@seasonaloutdoorswitherin297 2 жыл бұрын

Your right . This year there was a bunch of sharks being caught. I do see people catching dog sharks every year just not as many.

As of March 3, 2022 - taupe sharks are critically endangered (according to wiki). So yes, that's a bummer to see those apex predators getting caught and killed. Especially when we are allowed to catch less and less other species due to dwindling numbers. The predator/prey systems are dependent both directly and indirectly

@WAFishQuest 2 жыл бұрын

The harbor is a rookery. So may be the worse possible time to catch them as well. (That said I don't think any individual angler is out of line for keeping one, as long as they eat it... Regs may need to change).

Surprised you didnt catch anu flounder or rock bass

@seasonaloutdoorswitherin297 2 жыл бұрын

That spot has flounder but in 20 years I have only caught 2. As far as the rockfish I go closer to the rocks to catch them. This spot has very few snags. I only loose gear when a fish breaks the line.

Rock bass live in freshwater.

Are kelp cod good eating

@seasonaloutdoorswitherin297 2 жыл бұрын

They have a taste that you will have to decide for yourself. I have eaten them and, the meat is soft with a small flakey pattern. There is a bitter or off taste about them so what I do is beer batter for them.

@duckwacker8720 Жыл бұрын

Not kelp cod. They're Greenling.

The current Washington state record for a Tope shark is 41 pounds, caught in 2018 by a 10 year old girl.

Yes I had seen the video. This boy thought that he had possibly caught the new record so good luck to him.

I don't know anything about this shark. The person holding it fishes for them off the dock and called this one a Tope Shark.

It's not a sixgill. We catch those in Tacoma.
