Mission Beach 1/25
Posted: Sun Jan 25, 2026 10:23 am
Nice morning at Mission Beach, fished the low tide from 6:30 until about 9:00. Not much current, clean water with almost no seaweed whatsoever. Waves just high enough to keep things moving in the sand.
Nothing of note (quality-wise) aside from 9-10 perch, but I was catching them at a pretty steady pace all morning with no real lulls in the action. Unlike last week’s parade of pregnant females, most that I was pulling in today were male. Almost all were medium size aside from one large female that was probably 10-11”.
Mussels were the preferred bait today. There were a couple of really large bites throughout the morning that I couldn’t land. All in all, lots of activity in the surf today.
