I hit Owen beach on the low, incoming tide mid-morning on Saturday. I was using a pink bozz bomb with a hoochie and some anise scent. There were a ton of boats out fishing but I did not see anyone hooking up. I was there for about 20 minutes and got hit. Set the hook and got it all the way up to shore before it jumped and shook out the hook. Damn! Re-applied scent and next cast nailed one about 20 yards off shore, about the same distance as the other one. Bonked it and then decided to get back to the house and clean it up. I head down to Owen beach sometimes because it is so close to where I live. It was great BBQ'd. Went on ice and was bled fast.

Pardon my ignorance but do they allow you to fish off of Owens Beach or did you fish a ways away from Owens Beach.

You can fish Owen beach no problem. It's best if you go down the shore towards the claybanks because the current goes crazy through there with bait. I caught this fish right in front of the little day use shelter on the beach. Good fishing for silvers.

i think i saw you. another pink was caught sunday and today. saw what was probably a coho jump too. I walk down there almost every morning that i'm not out in the boat. go try by the concrete stairs if you feel like a walk, saw a king caught there in 40ft of water by one of the boathouse regulars. see many salmon jump there along that hump all year.

at mong, yes its allowed. just gets kinda crowded with non fishers on nice days.
