You've pretty much got it! Just get out there!
Pick a flooding and/or high tide, watch carefully when you get out there for fish as they'll usually show themselves. Spinning gear the easiest and your bet bet for action. Try krokadile and coho spoons in gold/red, green or blue colors.
For an elevated level of difficulty and exasperation try flyfishing with intermediate sink lines. Flies chose can be tough because they are very fussy but try pearl mickeys, and streamers in blue/white or green/white. Retreives should vary in speed and lenght as they might like super fast one day and dead slow the next.
Good luck

Only saw a few jumping today, had about 5 strikes and got 1 wild and 1 hatchery to the boat. Very strange to be trolling about/fishing in 8 to 10 feet of water.
Perfect spot for a pontoon boat or belly boat - saw 1 out there today - or a small car topper.
Trolled a 3 1/2" cop car and an old chrome spoon I found in the tackle box, with about 1-1 1/2" of pencil lead for weight. No flasher.
Each got a fish to the boat.
Not sure if that's correct Coho tackle, but seemed to work.

Time what type of boat are you and what Channel VHF you using?
I will be out in the next day or 2 , Here's a little tip finde the 40Ft Water right off the oil docks troll a Green FLasher /Cop car spoon 6 oz slip weight and 35 pulls , For shallower water Under 20Ft Krocadiles for casting and trolling , Blue fox as well and cop car spoons will get them to the boat

Just back from cherry point.Had two nice ones up to the pontoon boat but lost them both. Had a few bites and may have done better if the wind hadn't picked up. Using a chrome and blue crockadile in about 15 ft of water. Couple of other guys out there but didn't see them hook anything. One guy dragged his tin boat down the beach so you can get a cartopper in. Try my luck again tomorrow.
