This is my first salt report, and first time fishing the salt in this state. I fished about 1/4 mile from shore in a kayak in about 50-80ft of water. Waves were pretty tame, lots of boat traffic, coming from the Marina near by. Lots of fish caught. Me and another WA laker; ilvlakecassidy, caught 30, of what I believe are rock soles, between the two of us. He caught all his on the bottom with a half of a nightcrawler. I caught my 15 on red pautzki salmon eggs on the bottom, I released 3 and kept 12. a lot of fun, twas a good first salt trip. side note: the seals weren't shy around the kayaks.. One swam right up, I had to put my ore near it's face before it backed off.
