Hey guys...
After hearing some pretty good reports about Packery Channel...I decided to head out there Sunday for the day. I had some frozen shrimp from Roys and wanted to use it up. I also had some fishbites.

Decided to fish the North side....first time on that side. Got there about 8am and the water was great....fished the fist gut but there was some weeds floating...but not too bad. Lots of bait in the water...it's been a while since I have seen any kind of mullet running...and they were everywhere. And when a big school ran by me...I could see a bunch of jacks and other fish chasing them...so cool. I threw the net but only managed horse mullet....a bunch...I only kept 2 since I knew there would be more all day.
The action was more towards the end so I moved up there. I threw some cut mullet with 1 rod and the other 2 I had shrimp and fishbites. And not long after that...I had a shark on...33in black tip. Then later...I caught this good size pompano.....nice.

Total catches....1 shark...1 pompano...1 stingray...tons and tons of hardheads.
CPR was practiced on all of them except the pomp...was given away.

What I saw being caught....1 nice red...lots of Spanish Macks...some nice size trouts...toms of sheapheads....all on the surf side.
Had a great time...left about 3.

It was good to see all the life in the water back at the jetties...I will be hitting it on my weekly Thursday mornings before work.

Nice report! Definitely a sense of urgency to take advantage of the new life in the surf before the seasonal weed gets to be a nuisance.
