Sewage leak be damned.

Went to the pier for about 30 minutes during my lunch break. Arrived about 1300 on incoming tide.

THEY'RE HERE!!!

In the time we were there there was maybe 3 whole minutes that someone on the dock wasn't tied into a fish and probably 20 minutes where multiple hook-ups were in progress. Was fishing at the beach end of the dock in pretty shallow water and could see several schools of 100+ fish working the area.

Hooked 2 of about 10 strikes and lost them both. First was long release. Second went under the pier and cut my line on the barnacles on one of the pilings.

Pier was a veritable murder scene with dozens of fish on deck!

Go get some!!

Good luck and tight lines.

Sorry...sometimes the sub-area doesn't seem to post for whatever reason. It was Dash Point pier. Hence the sewage leak comment. Also marked in hotspot. Good luck out there!
