gamble bay fishing

Well gents it looks like a will be moving into a beach house on gamble bay!!! Has anyone fished/crabbed that area?  Fly fishing or conventional any advice will do.  I hear its a huge breeding ground for herring so I'm sure it should attract something.  See you guys on the water soon.

For the sake of assumption, would this be the Gamble Bay West of Puget Sound? I haven't fished it, but from a conservation view point, its a major task in the works. I know there's a ton of agencies wanting to get it cleaned up as it stands to produce great revenues for the local tribe(s) and businesses. You might send Brian (bsteves) a pm as he may have additional input, from the position of a Fisheries Biologist. As I recall (but don't remember who), there are one or two more guys on this forum with formal educations in the same. You might even pm Nu2kayaks as she seems to stay in tune with conservation from what I've read, and seems well informed. Good luck in your new place.

You will be close enough to be able to whip over to Pt No Point up at Hansville when the salmon are running. Its a very popular, and often crowded beach fishing scene when its happening. You can cast from the beach, or maybe find some place to launch nearby.
If you don't mind C&R, there's some good beach fishing for Searun Coastal Cutthroat to be found, at times, off the beaches and points in northern Hood Canal, Admiralty Inlet and Puget Sound. You are close to the Hood Canal Bridge, and can conveniently jet over to some good fishing on the O.P. once you figure out where to go.
Have fun learning the local waters!

And a bit farther south is Jefferson Head.  Great location for salmon and other species.

Thanks for the spots.  If any of you want to take the new guy out around Christmas new years time I will be up there eager to fish.
