 Me and a couple buddies are planning a south sound kayak trip in a couple of weeks. Me and one of the buddies went up last year for 2 days and had a great time. We launched at luhr landing, and finally found fish the first day, but way over to the east. It was a loooong paddle and fast currents and had to plan our trip with favorable tides to help us each way. Brought the gps with us the second day, and found out we paddled around 25 miles in 2 days.  Wore us out, we couldnt have fished a third day even if we wanted.  At least the fishing was good. However, we are looking for somewhere with a little less paddling.

I fished boston harbor a couple weeks ago, and really liked it. The tides were way more mild, and i could actually fish quite easily through the whole tidal change.   However, I did catch about a dozen nice fish here, but we caught way more bigger fish over out of luhr.  Using google maps, I was looking at launching out of baird cove, there is a marina right there.  Couldnt find any posts on here when using the search function about the fishing here.  Any body out there launch the yaks and fish from baird cove?  Which direction did you fish?  Further east or go west and north around the point and actually fish in henderson inlet?  We are interested in flat fish and dogfish.  No need to respond about salmon, were not interested nor licensed for salmon  :)   Any tips you could send us or even info to stay away from here would be appreciated.   Thought about launching at solo point, but after reading the hoops you have to jump through to launch on the base...... no thanks.
