I was fishing Triangle last week and here's the way I figure it.

If you are using Spin-n-Glos, you need the extra flow of the river with an out-going tide to make the Spin-n-Glo work properly.
Watch the junk floating in the river - it has to be moving out at a good clip for things to work.
On an incoming tide, it seems like the stuff just sits there so there doesn't seem to be much flow.

Went out after dinner last week and while I didn't catch anything, it was a nice way to beat the heat being on the river.
I got there just after high tide so I think it was a little too early for things to work properly.

Unfortunately, the tides don't look good for the next couple of weeks.

When bar fishing the "dump" bar it is best to use fresh cured roe, a medium cast from shore is all that is needed as the fish will travel up onto the sandbar.

This time of year you may catch a jack chinook, but in the past this bar was most popular for the coho fishing in the fall. Fishing with roe you may even hook into a sturgeon which lurk in that area.

Personally Ive had better luck on the high tides, but have caught fish on both low and high.

This is a great spot to spend an afternoon bar fishing as long as the wind is blowing in the right direction ;D

For sure, it can get very nusty during hot summer days.  Used to frequent that area alot in the past for sturgies.
