|
|
Finally got a morning to myself away from all the doctors so I loaded my jetty wagon and made my way to the North Packery looking for Specks. Stopped on the way at the Bait Bucket for a pint of shrimp and got in the water at 7:45am. The birds were working large balls of bait in the channel but my lemon rig just wasn't working. So I went to Plan "B" Free-lining... Very hard to cast into a 20mph wind so I added a small weighted float and that was the ticket 8 trout between 17"-22". Also one very large Whiting made the cooler. Who say's Friday the 13th is un-lucky.

Thanks, I was just about to PM you to get a fishing report from Packery to update the site for Father's Day weekend. I may have to take my dad and nephew out there.

Nice mess of specs there JettySlayer. Thanks for the report. I like to see that kind of water making its way through the channel. _________________ Save the seagrass......Shoot some ducks |

From the pic, it doesn't look like you use a net...I've lost 2 trout there so far.
I was there at Packery last Saturday and you are a living legend there! Pretty much everyone I've talked to knows who you are...awesome. |

| OK, so we know you slept in by the 7:45 am start. And from the 10:56 am post we know you were home for an early lunch of fresh fish tacos . Can you say "excellent"? I love it. Way to go, TITELINE. I'm going to get in line for a lesson. |
