Silvers and Searuns are the usual suspects and blackmouth when the time,
tide, bait, and stars align. This month is our best shot here in Elliott
Bay and the Narrows for blackmouth. Keep in mind that, only in our wildest
fantasies, are we gonna run into big bunches of 'em or the really big ones.
Think steelhead in terms of numbers on the beach. If you don't need the
casting practice, wait for the silvers to show.
