Steelhead
While Blakely Island isn't directly known for its steelhead rivers, anglers can occasionally encounter sea-run steelhead in the surrounding saltwater areas as they migrate. The best opportunity comes during the late winter and early spring, as steelhead return from the ocean to spawn in nearby mainland rivers. Trolling or casting with spoons or spinners near the island's shoreline and around the mouths of small creeks can sometimes produce results. Focus on areas with good current and structure. Keep in mind that steelhead fishing in saltwater requires a keen understanding of migratory patterns and local regulations. The boat launch on Blakely Island's south side grants easy access, but be prepared to cover a lot of water to locate these elusive fish.
