use the best bait you can, IE fresh roe, only as much weight as you need, try upstream at the second covered picknick area as well.
bring an umbrella

not even a week old this row, from Bruce's market I think (my grandpa bought it).  we were there last weekend caught like 10 jack coho between the both of us, released them all.  all under a pound.  we've been using 3onz weights but you still drift a hell of alot when the tides moving.

Try not throwing out to far.  I find the coho like to move fairly close to shore.  The tide change tomorrow is very little, so you'll probably not notice much drift at all.
