Nice morning & conditions at Mission Beach by B. Park. Biting fairly aggressively from 6:30 to about 8, then bite went totally dead up to high tide. No big hits from other species. 7 perch total, largest about 9. No visible crab beds but you could find a few just digging here & there. No eggs or soft shells on any I found, fish would not bite on them.

Imagine all the perch swimming around looking for food, thinking it's just Bill again.
Hoping to sneak in a quick outing this evening out there, and then at least once more at some point over the weekend. What'd you use for bait today? I'm planning on using clam, maybe gulp worms if it's just a short window after work today.

Hi Joe, used a variety of baits. Frozen mussel & clam meat pieces which were effective when a perch would hit the whole bait but not so when they go into just a nibbling mode & strip the hook eventually. Also had some freeze dried lug worms which work well too if not just nibbling. Good luck this weekend.
