Got ok to fish early Saturday. On the sand by 4:30pm!! Brought a perch rod along to occupy my time as I was expecting it to be slow or maybe even a dead night for grinners with the cold front moving in.

As I expected, the bullet tuna on my long rod sat quietly the whole night. Glad I brought the perch rod and some shrimp. Had bites on just about every bait. 4 leopard sharks up to 20+ inches, a spoof-fin, 4 yellowfin croaker, and 7 surf perch. Kept the perch (1 preggo released) and yfc for the fryer and for future grinner bait. Perch rod saved my night.

Great idea to get some perch for bait since there isn't a single mackerel in the entire ocean right now!  I've been even keeping Blacksmith Perch since there is no bait to catch and $3 a pop for mack would break the bank... (Just to lose to critter bites)

Nice work on perch rod I wore the stripe Saturday night, unlike you I forgot my critter rod leaning against my work bench. Things should start picking up here towards the end of the month.  Tight lines to you
