3/9/2017 4:22:00 AMSouth off Mercer Island??? December 60-100' deep , Oh yeas you can find them there. Try also Pontiac Bay, NOAA, Old Navy Station, North Off Magnuson Park, You Google it you'll find it. It's The Pier. You just cast it out late August-September-October, no boat needed. Around 4pm, when bitting starts, almost non stop. You use Drop Shot Set Up and 2 oz, Cast it out, let it sink and then Rill it in very slow. Perch meat works the best.Pontiac Bay.
