Smelt and herring fishing in Washington State - Catch and Cook

A lot of people don't know we can actually get smelt by jigging on piers in WA in spring, hence I went out and recorded this video. Smelt fishing and herring fishing can be a family event, a lot of fun.

love smelt but never fish for hearing before, do you fish at cornet bay state park dock or the marina docks? thanks in advance

[@BashiWAFishing]

Yes, the location is right. But it's not the right time now, April and May is good

Hi Sports Xu, 一直追随你的脚步！我也想试试！我可以用钓小乌贼的杆子吗？去年冬天按你的指点买了装备，去seattle pier 60+ 钓了几次，非常好玩啊！

I see your on team "catch and we eat". I hate those sadistic guys that run around hooking fish in the mouth to torture them and then release them back into the sound with a new lip piercing. You just earned a new subscriber!!! Please leave some for me. 👍

My doctor don't want me to eat red meat, so I am living on fish and chicken now.

[@alexkelsh]

Are there rockfish and other bottom fish in that area as well?

[@BashiWAFishing]

We cannot keep rockfish over there, you might find greenling

[@alexkelsh]

That is ok I mostly release in general. I will try it out@@BashiWAFishing
