No you don't. I seem to get something different every time. I got a snake prickleback today.

Pretty much.

Thank-you. They're the toughest thing I've caught in the state so far. I think there are plenty that are tougher. I just have to get into them.

Thank-you. I am trying. It's a little tougher than what I am used to.

Yes it is. It was the opposite today.

Thanks. They're not for everyone but there are some who are into it.

I think they look cartoonish.

@@PeelingLine yes, now that you say that I see it

Thanks. You're right it's always a mixed bag out there.

It can get pretty rough out there.

Thank-you. But if you think about it I am touching pee. 😂

Thanks

Thank-you. I like the way they look too.

Thank-you.

Most fun I've had so far.

Thank-you. I didn't know that.

There are plenty up here. If you are in the area let me know and I can put you on some. I have trouble Identifying a lot of these ocean fish. I rely on someone in minnesota to ID them for me.

So far they are the toughest fighting fish I've come across here. I will try target a different species that get bigger near me: the starry flounder. Maybe I'll cook them up too.

Thank-you

So far the most fun here.

Thank-you. The squid is actually sweet and spicy. Not bad at all or fishy. I was fishing a weekday so less people out there.

神仙伴侣ShanePingStyle it is a good pier. Not good for parking though.

Thanks. It's good stuff. Stays on the hook forever and it doesn't go bad compared to worms. have a good one.

Thanks. They aren't too mean.

They aren't as tough as carp but still lots of fun on the right gear.

You're right about variety. I'm sure it stops a lot of people from eating them. Not sure about predator fish.

Thank you very much!

I have caught smaller fish on bigger hooks. Those little ones can be really aggressive and somehow hook themselves.

Even the fish you're used to are different. Like the rainbow trout vs steelhead. They fight so much harder.

@@PeelingLine that's crazy if you have been out chasing those I'll be looking forward to those videos!

It is a pretty good spot but parking is a problem. The bite is better than Illahee but it's out of the way.

Makes sense.

@@PeelingLine I did bring a couple pts with mr

What pier??

@@jayswim5335 I'm not sure what that means

@@PeelingLine I meant to say I brought a couple crab pots with me when I was there too.

Thanks.

Thank-you

Yeah it was then. It smelled like an out house.

Peeling Line Good to know.... 👍

I usually pass on most puget sound bottom fish.

Thanks. It's all good I'll get one. I think the only time peeing through your skin would be good is if you're in the shower and don't want anyone to see you peeing. 😂

🤣😂

Thank-you. I didn't know about this either. Guess I need to watch some shark week.

Thanks. They are sharks. They just don't get very big or have the aggression of other ones.

@@PeelingLine Ah, ok. I've never lived near the ocean nor spent much time fishing in it so I'm mostly clueless when it comes to salt water species.

@@casualcarolinafishing5835 Me neither until last month.

Dog fish is a shark also called mud shark

I have tried one lake but access is a problem. I just got a kayak and will be going for some freshwater soon.

I will have to try that.

Yes I just moved here last month. I like them too. There are quite a few here. I wouldn't want to go swimming.

Peeling Line Ha ha. Just wear a wetsuit if you swim. 🤣 That is really awesome, buddy. 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻 Did you move there to have access to saltwater fishing?

@@siralbertus Probably would need one anyway. The water is pretty cold and it's July

Thanks. I probably should but I just run the reels into the ground and buy new ones.

Most of the fish in this video were caught on the pickled squid. But they will hit anything really. Here are my favorite baits for bottom fishing. They will hit them all: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/aqiae617quCucXk.html

That's your problem right there. I don't know why but I haven't caught fish there either. Only tried a few times but 3 blanks and I don't go back. Try illahee state park or bremerton marina. I showed the pickled squid in the video. Shrimp is also good. Hi low rig or bottom bait. If there are fish around they will hit it. THey aren't picky and very aggressive.

I have seen that down at les davis.

I have but there are warnings not to eat certain shelfish. You can get oysters here and lots of people eat those. One thing is this is close to bremerton marina which has an advisory against eating bottom fish. There was also a sewage spill in Dyes inlet last year. I wouldn't eat any from here anymore. There are cleaner areas to harvest from.

Thanks. It's Indianola pier.

Indianola.

I'm hungry right now. 😂

Sorry it's so late. I used a 3 way rig with 2 hooks. Started with 1/0 then upsized to 5/0 IIRC. For bait I used sturgeon candy which is pickled squid from walmart. It stays on the hooks a while and you will catch a bunch before having to rebait. Good luck.

Me neither before a month ago.

I mentioned it in the video. But IIRC I was using 5/0 circle. It doesn't really matter for the dogfish I have caught them on size 6 to 12/0. The main thing with them is having a leader they wont cut through. Sometimes they wont cut through 15# flouro other times they slice through thicker. Just depends on the fight and how it is hooked.

I am in Silverdale. I did a catch and cook for them and give a dinner plate one away. They’re not really worth the effort smaller than that. I haven’t tried mackerel. I haven’t seen it just herring. I like those pickled squid because you don’t need to keep them in a cooler and they stay on the hook longer when the crabs are biting.

@@PeelingLine what are some of the best piers to go to in that part of Washington? I’m also in that area. I go to Waterman, but when you’re on the bottom out there you only get seaweed 🤣

@@PeelingLinealso does tide affect anything for pier fishing?

@@dronedandconfused9399 Yeah the tide is why you get all that seaweed there. You have to fish the slack tides so you don't get all the weeds. But usually fish move in on the incoming tides.

@@PeelingLine where are you getting that pickled squid around here?

They are a species of shark. Definitely lots of new species for me with the salt water. Even the fresh water has a lot of fish I have never caught before like salmon and such.

No just the squid. If they made shrimp I'd be all over it. The shrimp is from sprouts, madagascar. They are pricey but out fish the frozen shrimp from Costco.

Actually, those were coon shrimp from walmart but I wasnt having any luck with them.

Yes. Don't eat your sandwich right away.

I thought it was for the salmon. I find the barbless hooks tear up fishes mouths more than barbed ones. There are no shortage of rules here.

I have heard bullhead but not mudshark. I wouldn't use the latter though since it's a pejorative and I don't want to get cancelled. I like all species of fish. I like to do lifelist fishing (catch as many different species as you can, if you don't know). Here's my lifelist: roughfish.com/lifelists/global-combined-overview/global-combined-detail/445531
